This post should be my weekly assignment no. 15

Eyes on the screen and I feel like blogging.

Today’s lecture was on Russian constructivist… and here I go trying to write my weekly assignment on the topic… and it ends up…

Russian constructivists are those people who might like my duvet cover if they happen to see it. It is red in color… really strong red… with bubbles, no I mean circular patterns that scattered all over it… however, it is lacking of squares and strong lines.. But somehow, when I spread my duvet over my bed which is rectangular… I see those patterns framed by four strong lines… The circles are freely scattered but strictly bounded by the size of the bed… that reminds me of Stalin government of USSR…… but when I look at Saeng (my teddy) sitting at the corner of my bed… I think Stalin might not like him because he is cute but Stalin is not! 


Ok, let’s not get carried away by my ‘OTC’… (Once, I had a beloved uncle who taught me about OTC… it’s an acute syndrome that affects your brain position within the skull that causes some sort of insanity in your thoughts and behavior… in full, it is called ‘Otak Tak Center’)

My mind is everywhere…. I got flu and cough…. Sakit kepala also…

Life is pretty hectic and hair-wired recently.

Design
This thing called design could really make you fly high but sometimes… it could crash you to the bones…

Tutor(s)
The problem when you have two tutors in a studio is one could differ from the other especially when one is not around… and you don’t know which one you should listen to~

Student
When you are a student, you should not be stubborn… but you should listen! But I once, had a mentor who told me… “You can be stubborn when you are in third year and above”… hahaa.. so I’m now ‘besar kepala’ and that is where the problem comes… so padan muka!

Modernist
Did you know that my name could mean ‘modern’? Tak percaya ? Ask the Arabs! Still don’t believe it? Ok, fine.. take that as my middle name then….

Love
I think I really need to fall in love again… so that I could have the old passion again…. Mana pergi semangat berkobar-kobar itu?

Hypothetically speaking… I’ll get over this soon inshaAllah… and by that time I’ll be more enthusiastic… but for the moment… I’m so tired…. Dear my soul, turn to Allah so that you could find peace~

p/s; internet, kamu jangan buat masalah boleh tak? Hantar ke soviet union nanti baru tahu…

Transition

Sometimes I wonder if I would still blog after I go back for good since it always turns out that I don’t really blog whenever I return to Malaysia. I’m back in Melbourne again. Despite everything I said about this place. I'm always thankful that I’m studying here. 8 hours is long enough, can’t imagine going further. Let alone going back during a short winter break like I just did. Haha… However, regardless how good Melbourne is, coming back here is never easy. It is not the place, it’s the transition. Travelling is tiring. Yes, like yesterday, I had to take two flights, one from Penang to KL, then KL to Melb, it is a lot more tiring for someone like me who could barely sleep in a plane. That’s why I enjoy traveling during the day and taking a window seat. I enjoy day dreaming while staring at those fluffy white clouds. Haha.. Weather change changes everything. I had never went back during winter before. So that was my first time experiencing an abrupt change from a...

Against all odds...

I haven't written about school in here for moons... So, I have a couple of things to share... To begin with, I'm currently doing a design studio called Woven... The studio is basically about making beautiful building.. well, it does sound very general.. Every studio sort of has that intention... Anyway, but the different is, what is behind the design.. I mean, the driving idea... because it could be, the site, programs, occupants etc..etc... but for this studio.. It focuses more on the structure... How does the structure influence the design in making it a good and beautiful building... It's about the relationship between the structure and ornaments.... does structure itself serve as the decorative element of the building.. or is it traditional and the decorations stay independent from the structure... It is a decision to be made... Initially, I was really excited about the idea of making the structure ornamented and beautiful.. so instead of serving as structure, it could...

This is a draft from 2 years ago, and I should have posted it right then. I have written so much here.  For years that have passed, I sent my words into space, and hope for nothing. I wrote, because words swelled in my head, and my tongue tied tight, failed to communicate to people around me, and my heart often searched for people out of my reach, my tear ducts are small, it often burst at the shoulder of a bed instead of finding a soul to rest my head, so this place is the reservoir of my feelings, a dumping place of my useless thoughts, occasionally a good ones, and and arcade of the moments, things and people I wish to remember. But today I need to tell the world that life has turned out so differently for me. All the melancholic and bitterness I had narrated here seem so distant. My heart had finally found a home.  Alhamdulillah.
