Exhibition

Today is Merdeka day! In another word, its Malaysia Independence day. No, I am not going to blog about Malaysia, its so risky to do that now judging on what happen the day before Merdeka. Someone got arrested due to what he wrote about Malaysia in his point of view.

So in this post, I'm going to blog about my event! My last post was all about the preparation of the exhibition, where else this blog is about the exhibition day!

I know its super boring, so move along people who arent interested in reading xD.

During the exhibition, our lecturer invited most of the industry people to check out our booth and works in school. Most of the industrial people would just take a glance and walks off when they saw mine ( i know my isnt the best work yet but seriously you should show some appreciation right?) after that they will just walk around the exhibition looking ONLY at the best artworks or animation.

I dont blame them from walking away from mine, but do keep those nasty comments to yourself after you seen our works. I know critique do us good, but you're here to hire us and see our work but not to critique us in such a rude manner.



Alas i hate being standing at my booth due to the super direct wind from the aircond, i stood with my classmate Lindani, (she is a receptionist) and all I have to do is just sit and smile towards the guest.

My job as the receptionist, its so easy. All i need to do is to entertain the guest, by bringing them food and the drinks, which is free. By all means one of our classmate (I doubt he reads blog so Ima put his name anyway) Ehsan, he just kept eating the food there and drinks the yucky diluted water. All he do is just eats, drink, sit on the sofa, eats, smokes, drinks, and eats. I barely see him at his own booth promoting his work. I guess thats why our food went missing so quickly.



Some of our lecturer is kind enough to contact their friends to come over to our exhibition to give a small speech about the outside world, and how our work supposed to display and how to sell ourselves ( it sounds wrong i know xD) In this case, I specially miss our beloved lecturer Aizati. She is the first ever lecturer to bring us on a field trip to visit artist around the world (by attending KL design week) I never regret till this day. How she expose us towards the industry people by inviting them to our presentation. Despite the nervousness and scared of the industrial people, I go through it and its an experience. So I guess some other lecturer learn from Miss Aizati and bring in some guest. Like this one.



Also every lecturer that ever taught us, LOVES our decoration and wanted one of these. They are homemade. I meant, made by ourselves as in papers, cardboard and wood with a little wirings xD



Well that's it for now!

Explosive Event

I know, been super long since my last entry. I've been busy.

First off, the Graduation Exhibition. (I am so sorry towards all my friends because I promise them a video of it but the other half of the video is still with Sam so I cant really edit it) We have to prepare like hundreds of small cubes along with big cubes for the lighting.



All the preparation for the Exhibition started right after our finals. Where the coloring of the cubes, wrapping up the glow in the dark cubes and more. The leaders who work the hardest actually is the one who suggest and confirm everything. Like in a company, i am just a small fly that no one will bother until our department GM tell us what to do. Unless I am keen to do something, i just straight away ask my Big Boss which is the president. Often I do that because my department leader don't tell me shit about what's happening usually.

The exhibition took us 48 hours or more to set up. The location is supposed to be out of the university but some political matters, it was pushed back and located IN our uni right beside the Apple store above the plaza of our uni. The place is extremely small which means we need to share the computers between two users. The decoration and arrangement of chairs and tables were to arrange and re arrange due to the small area.



Finally covering the entire room with darkness... LOL joking. But we literally wrap the wall, window and tables with black cloths. That's our theme anyway, supposedly to be something to do with forest (our creative leader have a soft spots towards environment and going green) but it changed into pixelfly. Simple as, all the finals project are in digital format. Pixel as in digital, fly as in we're all graduates, we're soaring like fireflies in the dark, we're the light! ok I know i over exaggerated xD that's because i love my classmates :P


This is before everything is set up



After all the dark cloth and decorations.




After hours and hours of preparing the place, its simply exhausting, but I am satisfied. This is our end product of our exhibition.

The prints out of our booklets and DVD for take aways

Wizarding World of Harry Potter

OMG its finally out! The soft opening of the Hogsmeade Village at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter!!! Check out the video!!! Gosh it look so amazing, but unfortunately i am unable to go yet >_<'' I need to save up some money and time to go!!! Plus i want to go with a bunch of Harry Potter geek friends of mine!!!

Childhood Melody

Does anyone remember during the days... When we were like 7 to 12 years old? During my time there weren't any K3Sha nor Lady Gaga style... My time it was the all famous band from Nsync, Backstreet Boys, Aqua, Spice Girls, Vengaboys, Toy Box and etc.

Well, you know where i am heading with these groupies. These groups broke up or torn apart when i hit high school so youngster these days probably wont know them unless their songs or album are still out there selling.



Remembering the good old days where I dance and sang through the radio or the cassette player that my dad brought me. (I aint rich enough to get the VCD *i doubt these are still on sales*) I would just blast my music and doing some weird dance moves in front of the huge glass door i have in my living room.

Oh and i remember during the days when we have our camp night during my final year on primary school... each of our clubs need to come up with a dance or a performance and such, i remember a last minute dance rehearsals of BYE BYE BYE by Nsync. It was the best night ever, even though most of us mess up the steps but it was fun to dance with the songs we love.

The girls prefer to have spice girl's style... wearing the different colors and sexy dance moves! I DONT EVEN KNOW THOSE WERE CALLED SEXY MOVES DAMMIT... and i just felt nice dancing with their beat...

I guess i can understand why i like those songs, because the beat and rhythm is just so catchy that you wont forget... its stuck on to your head and you just want to listen to it, even though you know its a crappy song with no meaning but the beat just makes you want to move your body.

Technically when i listen to it again, I realize that all these times when i was young listening to the singer who doesnt sings o.O''' . Dont get it? Simple. They use the voice enhancer to make their singing better. I didnt notice it back then, but now i guess why i love their voice because it isnt their real voice at all. Also proves that they never really had a live shows ANYWHERE....

Honestly thinking back I can understand why our parent hate our songs... But at that age of 7 till 12... who knows anything about dirty stuff? Yes when i say dirty, its like those simple lines in the lyrics that makes it pretty bad. Let me give you a few examples...

Let start with vengaboys.. since that was the first song i gotten my feet to move and dance throughout my days... Their song was BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM.... it was a very very sexual song honestly, but still i just sang throughout the entire song without noticing the meaning...



Boom boom boom boom
I want you in my room
Let's spend the night together
From now until forever...

OR

From toybox... Superman (gosh to think i love to sing this)



Superman is on the air
I'm flying in my super red underwear
His sexy dress is turning me on
I feel kinda hot when i'm puttin' it on

KIDS me like listen to songs like these and dance with it -___- so i kinda dont blame kids or teens these days to listen to Lady Gaga or K3sha... or any other weird ass song... Since kids these days are smart than i was when i was young...every kids these days are filled with internet shitty stuff like twitter and facebook... during my time it was dollies and running around outside. Kids these days barely see the sun unless its PE lesson in school.

Seriously these days all the songs/music i know, mostly have stuff like beer, sex, boobs, sex, ass, sex, girls, sex and more sex with beer... Dont you agree? The songs which actually makes sense arent that much either...

what say you?

Solitude

GAH! I hate this! I hate this! Time of the month alongside with the rushing of final is tiring!

Why cant my lecturers actually extend it judging from our presentation on week 11? Its like MOST!!! Yes MOST of us have only 10 to 30% done! There are only a handful whom finished up to 70% or more... LOOK at the majority for christ sake! Are you for serious???? No extension??

Whats worst? We put soooo much effort into our exhibition and turns out the lecturer cant do ANYTHING!!! to the management to make it approve our proposal... wtf? =.=''' During day 1 they were like " ooh this is gonna be a huge exhibition and its gonna be great" bla bla bla but now? Oh we cant get it through the management and the so called tan sri of ours wasnt in uni to get it done... =.= seriously if you people would give as much effort into the exhibition as we do, you would get it approve for us asap rather than saying, we cant do anything =.=''' well that sure gives us lotsa hope on the exhibition aye?

And what do you know 2 more weeks and its final presentation. I wonder other than the top As students, will anyone actually finish their entire final... >__>

A new interest

Indeed it is! My cousin lure me into WOW for the last time. Yes they does it all the time they meet me. Play wow! Its fun! And yes i did take a look into his character and learn about WOW... Its actually more complicated than i have played any other games before >_>''

The similarities are noticeable. Since i am an ex gamer myself (yes i quit flyff like a year ago) so i kinda got hooked into WoW since my cousin drown me with the information. And NO this aint fucking dota i tell you =.= there is so much difference in them. I wish some people would just notice the different for once =.='''

Anyway back to the similarities...

First of.. the classes they have :D

The new kind that i havent heard before...

- Druid
They are more or less are like shape-shifting forms.

- Paladin
They can melee DPS, tank, or heal with the buff abilities, arguably one of the best buffing and group support classes in the game.

- Shaman
They are one of the most versatile classes in the game as they can switch seamlessly from offensive caster to healer to melee DPS as needed.

- Warlock
They enslave demons and call upon dark magic and curses to dominate and destroy their foes

And some often we meet these classes in normal games =]

- Warrior

- Hunter

- Mage

- Rogue

- Priest
Of course they are very important in every game

So what others? After they have classes, they have different fraction. Where you get to kill others. Plus they have different kind of race... as stated..

Hordes have: tauren, bloodelf, undead, troll, orcs
Alliance have: draenai, humans, dwarves, gnomes, night elves

You will first need to start with WoW original > Burning Crusade > Wrath of the Lich King

Before i go on and on... my cousin is kind enough to share some of his screenies...




his class is warlock and a bloodelf warlock to be specific...

this character is now actually an undead warlock because no one will go do lvl 60 raids when there are better gear from 70 raids so technically people wear gear of their levels because its better stats.

certain gear sets giv u cool looks and weapon enchantments giv ur weapon a glow. Further more wings are from the shoulder piece. You can have like 6 different characters on 1 server and each one can be the same or different.




they all look different and theres restrictions on the races so for example u cannot hav tauren paladins. and only taurens can be druids for the horde side so u cannot be undead druid. when u start the game u choose a race then u choose the classes available for that race. it just evens things up a bit because each race have their own unique race skills for example taurens hav like 2% more HP

4 main tanking classes: Death Knights, Paladins, Warriors, Druids (bearform)

My cousins said that druids are fun. Because u hav different forms so the play style is different u can be catform (melee dps similar to a rogue), bearform (tanks similar to a warrior),moonkin form( dps spellcaster), treeform (healer spec).





BUT...they're not as good as their counterpart for example bearform you cannot wield a shield like warriors so you rely only on dodge. Unlike warriors who hav shields for blocking and blades for parrying still viable for their uses just not as good





Finally... its not a free game ahahahaha... you need to pay $14.99 USD per month

Of course an official thanks to my awesome WoW gamer cousins Ivan

Flyff V15 Beta

Ok so i went in and play for the couple of days and sorta figure out whats new....

First based is the Guild House! Guild leaders can now buy a guild house, where the house items such as furnitures are able to give you extra stats points =]



Also we try out the new dungeon, and defeated the boss (drops on beta is screwed so we got suns instead of lusaka weapons >_> )



There are also new pets, called buff pets. We were able to turn our old pick-up pets into a buff pet with a special item called 'pick-up pet upgrade'. These buff pets have a couple of slots, in which you can put beeds that will give you extra stats when the buff pet is out.

We also tried to hunt down some of the new jewelry during the Beta. Everyone else seemed to be after them as well though, so we didn't get further than a champions gore.

Something else that was new in the Beta was the Master/Apprentice feature. We didn't get to try this out, because you apparently had to do a lvl 90 quest for this. Should you do this quest though, you have the ability to take apprentices under your wing. When the master and apprentice are online at the same time, they will get a small exp boost buff.

This wasn't the only thing that we didn't get to try out though. Like the new content for Heroes. We were too lazy to continue grinding, so we didn't reach the point of being able to reach the Catacombs of Anguish or the Valley of the Risen. The first one is a Hero-only dungeon where the new sets are supposed to drop. The second is an area with 121+ monsters, where Heroes can continue grinding till lvl 129.

Other then the new features we've tried out and a bit of grinding, Beta was a complete upgrade-fest again xD. So many people surounding the upgrade specialist in Flaris and Darkon, try to get their weapons, armor, and jewelry as high as possible.
