Nothing Without Passion.

Architecture is the learned game, correct and magnificent, of forms assembled in the light. -Le Corbusier.

Do you ever wonder how does the mind of an architect work?
I’ve discovered some common traits that is shared among us pursuing architecture.
Architecture is character building; one of the many things that you can’t succeed without passion.
Can you picture me strutting down those killer heels, prepped up in a some sleek office outfits; presenting my ideas leading building projects with my chipmunk voice.

I’m gonna be a kickass architect.
Okay back to work now.

I have a presentation on this project tomorrow. A miniature golf course.

A musical bricklayer with architectural aspirations.

Haven’t done this in a while, I’ve finally updated my twitter page. I’m having troubles replying tweets, but I’m gonna have to try harder this time. I’d like to apologize if I might floor your timeline with my foursquare check-ins (which I have a valid excuse) and tweets. Its one of the things that keeps me company and allows me to feel attached to my life back in Malaysia. If you haven’t followed me on twitter; please do.

Read a tweet from @FactsAboutBoys:

Be a girl with a mind, a bitch with an attitude and a lady with class.

Nothing to disagree on about that.

Greetings,here’s all you need to know.
August has never been the smoothest month, but it seems like 2010 isn’t that great either. Deaths, world wide tragedies and I guess its all part of heading towards 2012. I’m not much of a believer when it comes to prophecies about how the world would come to an end, or even the slightest thought about when that would happen. The same question that gets thrown around would be, are we really living life to its fullest?

Well I’ve been struggling to cope with the amount of things to do, so bad that I’m feeling all numb and overwhelmed to a certain extent. Lets not talk about studies because its something compulsory, but instead for the first time in my life today; I’ve transferred a person from a wheelchair into the car. I know its probably that big a deal pushing or seeing someone on a wheelchair; but that whole moment of struggling to figure out how to help her up by supporting the bottom half of her shoulders; then placing one leg after another into the car, man you have no idea how conflicting it felt on the inside.

Have you ever had a love-hate relationship with someone; and no this isn’t a simple love-hate situation where you love shopping but you hate the amount of damage it does to your pocket wtf. Well for this case, its about this one person who’s never nice to me throughout my entire childhood, teenage years & etc; as the matter in fact, it has even reached that extent where mum thinks we were both sworn enemies in our previous lives. However,despite the ill feelings or at this point of time; numb, when I looked at her looking how frail she is now, unable to move her limbs, battling chemotherapy & being a ‘kid’ all over again; I did felt a slight bit of love for her.

I’m not heartless, as the matter in fact I think I feel too much all the time for people; but I can’t seem to get pass that stage of being nice to someone else if they’ve wronged me in anyway. This was more critical then, and for this particular case; its like twenty years of torture at home. I’d like to look at this situation differently, and this was taken through a positive stride; I guess she’s thought me this lesson of the importance of being ignorant and sometimes ignorance is bliss.

Right now, I think I’ve placed myself in a large pool of complications; having yourself exposed and sometimes things can get ugly when you have a broad network of friends. For example, we all know that when we’re asked if we know this particular person X, our common reply would be an acquaintance or I’ve heard of him, right? I think this is a problem which most people deal with where people claim to know you just because they’ve heard of you; the funny thing is, there’s something called a blog these days wtf. My point is, we’re now in a way different society; and I’m starting to get used to it.

Being only human, we would obviously want love from everyone you can possible know; but we all know that isn’t possible. Here’s a theory which the Keeper told me last night.

Are you an individual? If you are an individual and when I mean individual it means being a person of your own; chances of having people disagreeing with you, not liking you as an individual or etc is very high because we are all individuals. What we might share is a common ground, but it all boils down to personality; person is singular, right?

He continued, lets do a calculation ratio. If you were a nerdy student, you’ll have schoolmates, ex-schoolmates, friends and etc that would probably sum up to a couple of hundred people tops to like or dislike you. If you are in anyway more exposed to different form of backgrounds, or perhaps a celebrity like Britney; do the sum and obviously there’d be more haters compared to a regular nerdy student. So being humans, we get upset when we hear something nasty about ourselves; but the truth is, we’re all living in different worlds. If a nerdy student gets 20/200 people disliking him and Britney gets 10000/2000000 people disliking her; do the ratio, and what is there to get upset over?

Point is, even the ratio alone can determine the amount of people who actually know you in person. The larger your scope of friends, the more reserved and private you become. Its completely normal, and sometimes you get people disliking you for many reasons; try not to rule out the possibility that there might be something you’re not doing right. If you can live life in a humble stride, be as nice as possible to everyone; if shits still get thrown at your way, just treat it as holy shit wtf.

I’m surrounded by pretty strong individuals, telling me that ignorance is bliss. Its like life-lesson 101 that by putting yourself out there in the public, media or anything more than just the regular school life; don’t expect rainbows at the end of every rainfall. I am hypersensitive, only vulnerable in August so yes its the best time to gun me down wtf just kidding; but Ellie, you’ve gone through so much years ago; time to do some comparison with the present. I wish there’d be more fire in me these days; I wish I’d be a bitch and go all out to hurt people like how I use to; its tempting to let those spots resurface, but I know believe in karma.

Don’t do something that you don’t want others to do to you, remember?
Been practicing that for half a year wtf sorry I used to be a woman with grudges, but I think its a way happier way of living when you don’t live in anger. Just chill, people bark; you can’t put on dog mufflers for them all the time right? Life maybe unfair at times, but god is watching over all of us. I’m not gonna deny that I do get upset when I read/see/hear stuffs, because when I want to be able to look back at my blog archive for year 2010 to be yet another turning point; that this is the point where I learn how to be a bigger person and just chill about it.

The meaner and more horrible they are, I’d like to repay them with kindness. I’m not bullet proof, but please don’t bother pushing any buttons because I can only give love at the moment. Alvin should be proud of me now because I don’t react or give two shits about things like how I use to; I really am not bothered these days. It may put a test of my “ignoring” skills, but I’ve got good people around me to listen, and filter the situations unlike before.

I’ve finally let people in, be happy and merry; I need to start realizing that there’s no chance in hell I’m gonna be able to avoid shit till the day I pull my plug on MissyCheerio (.com,twitter,facebook). Without those three, I think my life would be a whole lot simpler; dogs stop coming when you stop feeding them period. I think its just a phase for most of us, there’ll come a point when you reach a certain level that you feel immune & grasp a full grip on your life that; folks I am an individual.

Its funny how people at different age, reacts so differently to situations or scenarios. They make a big fuss out of everything (during the immature phase) but then only to realize as they grow that it is all part of growing up. People with boring lives will find entertainment talking about someone else’s, how else to strike a conversation over dinner when there’s nothing much about yourself to share; tips, talk about people wtf.

I think I’ve been a little side-tracked with the funeral, classes kicking off, and all the events lined up; but fret not, I think I’ve found my key to keeping sane. I was crying in frustration last night, asking the Keeper for answers feeling really bothered, Karlson had a bothered sleep wtf and Desmond probably thinks I’m an emo kid; but like how I’ve recovered over the past 5 years was through this space. I find answers from within as I write, and from the first word “greetings” above; I think I’m feeling much better now.

I’m afterall, cheerio.
Spread the happiness wheeeeeeeeeeeeee !

Hell Bell.

Good day folks. In accordance to my previous post,I guess its good to just set some records straight and I’m feeling a gazillion times better now; and after last night’s convo with Bell (Isabella Kuan) about how you will always find haters when you’re blogging at some level wtf & its all about knowing who you are on the inside. We also sort of agreed in some ways that you can’t live your life trying to please everyone & its honestly bloody easy to hate even if you’re just angered by one tiny situation. Family upbringing counts i guess?

Anyhoo,last night all started off through the power of twitter wtf. We’ve been wanting to have dinner over at Ninja Jones for the longest time possibly our motivation to do well in exams or rather just get it by to get together for Ninja Jones. Sadly,when we really found the time to; Ninja Jones wasn’t opened last night!

It was Bell‘s mighty suggestion to dine at Chilli’s.
Please note that pictures are not taken from my usual DSLR; but the new Sony NEX3.

Jason‘s think no evil.
Helenness‘s speak no evil.
Bell‘s hear no evil.
Ellie‘s see no evil.

Guess who joined us for dinner after a spanking new haircut?

I have no idea what was I posing for,but it seems like I’m showing off my ring from the Keeper wtf. Thanks Karlson for the meaningful shot

I’m loving the camera, gonna be packing up both the DSLR & this for Shanghai baby!

Isabella.

Jason.

Karlson.

Jason is a happy boy!

Helenness in the house. According to Jason,it weighs 2.5kg, heavy!

The only reason why I have so many pictures camwhoring with Karlson is because there were so many failed attempts wtf. Or maybe I should lay the blame on him instead.

It was a great night,although it could have been much longer if it wasn’t for the traffic. I’m having heaps of fun with the new toy and thou shall be trigger finger happy today. I’ve always believed that everything happens for a reason, the way the universe is aligned in such a way where things just fall into place. They say that things happen when you least expect them to; ever pondered if thats exactly what we should psych ourselves out to do? For example, I want this hence I shall not expect anything.

A good friend always costs cheaper than any therapy!

missycheerio — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 09:25:20 +0000

Good day folks. I’m extremely excited about my trip to the Shanghai Expo this coming weekend; especially since I’ve just picked up the new Sony NEX3 courtesy of Advertlets; imagine the amount of photo opportunities & I will be bringing my DSLR along for sure. Things have been going on very smoothly aside from my frustrations coming from my dad; and judging from the amount of time I have to sort of self reflect about where do I go from here; I guess I kinda saw some answers through someone else’s eyes.

Speaking about this in a general manner,I’m sure most of you would have set out goals for yourself; for example in my case:

I am struggling to strike the balance between being a blogger & a person altogether. About drawing the lines between being too personal or being too commercial at the same time. Here’s a thing, after a good conversation which I’ve had with an old friend today; I kinda realize that in no matter what you do or pursue, you should never be manipulated into becoming something you’re not or lose the essence that makes you, you. We all strive to be better, to earn more cash, to be more popular or sometimes you just grow popular wtf but what happens when you’ve achieved it?

At some point when you’ve hit it; then the question that follows would be to ask yourself, whats next?
Would you in anyway get so lured by the fact that thousands read about what you have to say,and you end misusing that some sort of power?
And if you did misuse it to fire something personal which end up reflecting one selfish side of yourself to get back at the other, would you wake up to reality knowing that it wasn’t a right thing to do?
So where do you draw the line and at what extent do you stop; and should that one particular incident reflect the person that you are, because frankly all it takes to diminish any good thoughts about you is through one word of bad mouth?

After giving it a good thought, I might as well go all the way to set the records straight. I’m really bad with dealing with the ending of a relationships. Thats the one thing that usually screws me over, proven over and over again; from Aaron, Colin and recently Eugene. In some ways to be fair, I think I did contribute a buck load of fire into an existing flame which worsens the situation; but we all know the conventional I tell you what you need to know,and keep the other half (dirty half about myself) to myself situation. All it takes is just one source; you know like a simple message passed on from one ear reaching the 15th ear usually comes off as something else in the end.

Sometimes hearing so much things about yourself can suffocate your thoughts and judgement about the all that has happened; but if I were to look inside and reflect about the love, memories & fun side of it, I guess its all not so bad after all. I’m crazy at times when I’m provoked, its like flipping a switch on and I don’t stop at being a keyboard warrior as quoted by Hanie on her blog. Judging from the amount of blogs & twitter users blooming into the scene, people throwing darts and arrows with fire to one another with words; I couldn’t agree more with the way people are taking advantage of the fact that they have such big balls firing people but in reality, all cowards.

Its funny how things are all hyped up when we’re all merely individuals. I recalled the amount of hidden attacks on twitter & blogs over the years; but then you need to ask yourself; are these people anywhere close to being merely acquaintances who amazingly assume that just because we’re related via twitter/blogs/facebook that sort give you the power to claim “Yeah,I know her.” Oh come on, we’re living in such a different world these days that we’re connected within this network; but all that you know if what you get fed with. Friends, there’s a whole lot meaning more to that.

I may talk about some very personal things even on twitter about where I am, what I feel and yes it may get annoying at times; but I figured friends would probably interpret the things you have to say more accurately. Its stupid, no really when I see people getting so worked up over twitter; how often do you get to see overgrown adults (supposedly) slamming others like an 18 year old when they’re obviously a decade older than that. Whatever happened to going through higher level of education which supposedly teaches you manners & the ability to handle the situation like an adult.

Whatever happened to wisdom that comes with age?

Being famous isn’t always a great thing, you get guns & roses thrown at you at different occasions; but what happens when you’re completely exposed and not being able to do damage control? Do we live preventively protecting the things that mean a lot to you, your actual feelings about your relationships and things like such; what happens when you can’t voice them out anymore? That’s exactly how I’ve been feeling over the recent months; what do you do when you have so many people reading you everyday and not everyone is gifted with a gift to read critically & mindfully. Do you write to gain approval?

If this question were to be thrown at me 1/2 year ago with all that drama going on, I think I would have held back & misfire every once in a while; because I wasn’t sure about my own intentions of saying the things I’ve said. However, I think its time to bring the fire back onto the court; whats the point of being nice in general when all it takes is just the result of broken relationships which apparently justifies the person that you are. Yes it may be ugly, but nothing gets uglier than the truth. The truth which lead me to doing what I did of course. Thats all in the past now anyway,lesson learned; big time.

On another issue related to some twitter newbie who kinda took my tweet too harsh upon himself and went all dramatic over it. You see, the trouble with general tweets about your thoughts like “A leopard never loses its spots”; which is then read by your followers (mine is at 1000+ at the moment) multiply that to the odds of it relating to you and if everyone behaves the way he did getting all mad about that particular tweet assuming I was referring to him; what the fuck is twitter for? That situation went on with him immaturely slamming me and Alvin; despite the fact that we’re friends in real life.

If you can’t handle the online social networking; don’t be a part of it.
To clear the air about that part, he obviously took it way too personally. At least,that showed off his true colors.Twitter drama will always be interesting,but lets just say that sometimes it best to just spread the love & learn to master the art of just aiming to lead a happy life. There will always be a price to pay for being in the public (to a certain extent) and some situations are unavoidable. It all boils down to your conscience and tiny goals in life; sometimes being happy with all that you have is enough.

Honesty will always be the best policy.
Although not many people can handle the truth.

What do you think about this avatar designed by Yau Hui [twitter@yauhui] I personally like my fringe,the colorful fan & rosy cheek bones. It was a random request and it seems like everyone wants one from him now; I mean who wouldn’t want a cutesified(no such word) version of themselves right? Its currently my twitter profile picture.

So what do you think,in terms of resemblance & is it cheerio enough for you?
Did i mention how talented the creator was for a 15 year old? I love it!

Good day all. I think I’m about to get a panic attack,body died on me today after having a bad headache all morning; landing at home dozing off for hours. The worst part,after waking up; the headache was still around. Yesterday was probably the longest day for me meeting Michelle for breakfast, dyed & snipped my hair,back to studio work,rushed for Funky Villa at E@Curve for dinner then picked dad up from the airport at 1.30am. How bloody exhausting is that; topping that off with start working on the 3D at 2am in the morning sleeping at 5 waking up at 7am.

Sorry for the rant,and I’m lacking of sleep.
Read all about Funky Villa through Ewin‘s post. Thanks for the invite.

It feels like I’ve always been the “missing-in-action” one all my life. At times I wonder if its just my nature to still do everything without being available all the time. Friends who text or message me would start of with the line asking if I’m busy, and sadly to say I’ve mastered the art of saying No nicely. Too much practice I presume,but its all unintentional. There’s this constant battle inside me, having the angel & devil battling themselves out but I usually just go with whatever’s more important.

with @YinXie.

And of course, the upcoming rockstar from An Honest Mistake; Leonard Chua.

It sure feels good to be back where I belong at times,its not like I don’t enjoy the fun; I’m just too committed to my work.I think its becoming a disease that now I’m a student i’m already this wacko,what happens when I actually set foot into the working world of architecture? Being MIA (Am Eye Yeay!) is pretty fun actually because you get long catching up conversations; always without fail.

My loyal readers,be patient with me. Can’t squeeze out any juice tonight because I’m extremely exhausted. Gonna be waking up at 8am to wrap up my portfolio for Asian Architecture, go to college to meet a reader who actually took up architecture because she was so inspired after reading me; and I feel so honored to be featured in her college assignment “my inspiration”. Don’t take this the wrong way,this things do mean a lot to me; at least you know one tiny part of you touches someone else’s life!

Watch out July,I’m back.

Good day good ol’ readers.
Feedbacks required,grabbed this picture of Natalie‘s picture via her twitter.
Is it just me or does that face look too ridiculously similar?:roll: My brother thinks its a rip off,and suggest that I sue them wtf just kidding. Don’t get me wrong about where I’m trying to get with this. Its just mind-boggling,reminds me of my longer hair last year and what are the odds?

Perhaps my eyes are deceiving me. Oh well,you tell me.

It was also last night that I discovered someone by the name Ellie Loo using my picture or rather my face; as her profile picture. I mean I would have been extremely pissed before, but knowing that she’s not doing any pornography or ruining my name; thats fine. So this makes her MissyLooloo wtf. You can do me a favour though,click here & report abuse to the Facebook team.

Thanks much,and please comment about what you think on the game card image!
Humor me.
