WHEN I GROW UP...

I was stuck in a traffic jam whilst driving to work today. Office was more fucked up than usual lately, and I was forced to do full time designworks again and that means 3d proposals and sleepless nights after 3 years of project management (just shows that some good things DO come to an end). Since I can't do anything else to avoid the angst of waiting and cursing retarded drivers, I did the next best thing a man could do whilst stuck in a jam; I started to daydream and ponder upon my life. Why the fuck didn't I enroll in a Pilot School after high school? I'd be filthy rich by now and I won't have to deal with deadlines and screaming bosses and designer's block and stupid authority requirements. Hell, all I need to do is take off and land a jumbo fucking jet and get laid. My life would be so much easier.

I started to recall on why I enrolled in an architecture school in the first place. My mom wanted me to become a doctor (talk about cliche`s). I was determined on becoming the an architect. And so, I faced hell in college, met retards and fuck-ups when I started working, and still meeting new ones, wasted 3/4 my waking life in front of the drawing table and still I beg for more. And suddenly it hit me like a lightning bolt from up Zeus's ass; I LOVE to design. Simple as that. I can't have that luxury as a pilot. Or as a tokey kedai runcit. The satisfaction I get after a strenuous design proposal is PRICELESS. And THAT, my friends beat the shit out of any other jobs I could dream of at the end of the day.

So here's to another episode of my career in the fun world of architecture. Cheers!

OF TURKEYS AND ROBOTS

I went cold turkey yesterday. I didn't smoke for a full day, and I kinda feel good about it. If I can make it today without smoking as well, then I should be ok, I think. Work was a bitch these past few weeks. I couldn't even find the time to do anything else, which explains why there was no WIP here anymore. Hopefully things will turn better soon and I can start back what I've left then; the Iron Man project, the gundam diorama, the furniture project (I haven't mentioned that before), the sculpture set project..hahahaha!! It's gonna be a helluva year end, hopefully.
Anyway, I got myself my second Ashley Wood designer toy by the company ThreeA. I think I may as well be addicted by this thing. It's fuckin' AWESOME!! It's like a mix between Mud Wrestling and Ice Skating. It's not even real! I'm hooked. Let me show you what I mean..

That's all for now...I'll update the WIP after Raya hopefully. Till then, Selamat Berpuasa and Beraya secara sederhana..
