Is called shopping, Sham Shui Po style!

Basically the day went crap and I was told off by my tutors and told that I’m a smart guy and to snapping in to shape.

After that a whole lot of stressing. Then after a while I decided to go get a toy car!!!!!

So I rounded up a group of mates and we left poly to go to sham shui po!!! Bargain central.

We spent over three hour just looking at stuff and all of us buying a whole load of stuff.

After that we had supper in Jordan (area) not ugly model lol.

Then I went back to poly and did a time plan that took me 3 hours to do after that I was skidding up the class with the toy car whoo! Just like I imagined Hong Kong to be like.

Any way its 2.30 im clocking off so cya/blogya tomorrow!

Wedsday 7th March 2007 - Day of Presentation!

I was very very nervous for this one!.

This was the intrim presentation, where we had to show all are work that we had done. which sounds better than it is. it was acualy very difficult to do. i hadn't even started with it till the everning before. so that means that i did a 8 week projct in 1 night! it was hard core and i thought that i was in for it and was gonna get kicked off the course!

When i arrived in the morning to the presentation i was even more scared as it was a small intimate room! we were practicaly face to face. now this was fuking stupid sorry to sawre but for god sakes the day i have a rubbish weak presentation thay put us in the intimate presentation room!

It was time to face the music, i went after a very good presentation that was proper. It was my turn and i was like OK then if im gonna get shot im getting shot with confidance, so i rare when up stated my presentation and flowed it talking bull and showing off my untalanted 3d forms/products. AND GUESS WHAT? Thay Liked It!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow yeah yeah yeah.

The rest of the everning i was at ease and started the other microsoft project with my mates.

Peace out till 10 sec when i'll start todays blog!

Miah

OMG

presentation in a few hours, not finished and is a pile of bollocks.
im gonna get shamed!

i wish thay love it!

Ahrrrrrrr

i even have a script that i have to read cos im so confussed!

The true meaning of hard work.

When work is productive and you peoduce more than you could ever of imagend.

But hard work is when things take much longer than expected and you produce just ok work!

This is what Hong Kong is Like.

Ive just got in from long day @ uni started 7.30am anf ive arrived home 4.40am the next day. this is the true meaning of hard work. i have and early start tommrow so i have to head to bed for a cupple of hours!

Kill Me! Wow I have got myself into a giant mess!

Image is our first draft of are storyboard for the toy project!

Todays i have been very very low :( cos i feel i have too much work to do. But i dont know how to do it!

In england Uni work is easy peasy, but here its another story! its so difficult and very fast paced.

I am lost and very strugerling.

I have had a talk and the outcome is i have to turn theses negative 'fellings' into Positive Drive and energy to do my very best!

So thats whats gonna happen from this point on no more ooo or ahrrs. its gonna be full on me! so get ready its time to play! Whooo Yeahhhhhh its drive time baby!

Peace Out
