Good day folks. I’m on my final battle to finish up this semester, been sleeping at 5am in the morning waking up at 7am then back to work; and of course not to forget my daily basketball sessions in the evening. Things are incredibly hectic, so hectic that I know I’ve been missing in action and to some extent I’m failing to keep to my words. Please understand that I’ve not really been living like a normal person, for someone who eats, sleeps and work all at the same spot; I’m impressed that I’m still pretty much sane at the moment. Well, thats architecture for you.

I’ve got to be very honest, sometimes it feels like my body is getting a little weird with me. Metabolism rate has shot up like mad, I whack supper meals like nobody’s business but perhaps due to my hours spent awake; my system is pretty much screwed up. Its like sleeping two hours a day, and playing basketball two hours a day as well; for the rest of the time, its spent on my assignments. Its effin’ crazy because if you’re doing architecture, this is a long term thing throughout the semester. Frankly speaking, I’m almost running out of fuel.

Here’s one quick glimpse of what I’ve been working on; I’m honestly not bothered with the final feedback anymore, when its time to put your design works out there to get hammered; so fucking be it. Don’t mean to be rude, but here’s my waiting area for my new project on an Eco Resort located at Taman Negara Penang. Yes, its a 3D rendered image & oh yes I spend hours keeping my eyes glued on the computer screen on this.

Quite an interesting extension of what I do, hmmmmm?

Awesome camwhoring moment with Ryanloopthehoop.
If you noticed, those are not my glasses but I can’t stand my eyebags!

The reason why I’m writing this post today,although I should be rushing off my CAD drawings which is gonna take forever (please wish me lots and lots of luck); is to remind myself that sometimes in life I’ve got to set my priorities straight. Perhaps the recent change in my lifestyle like just zoning in with my work, staying home & tonnes of hours spent on basketball to get healthy and look dashingly fit again wtf; is also pretty much a form of an escapade from all the heartaches in the last couple of months.

I’ve lost a lot, standing on the brink of losing myself at some point due to depression; perhaps this is my turning point. I’ve learned that its almost pointless to explain your actions, hence I don’t anymore. It doesn’t even raise an eyebrow if I get odd questions like how come you’re so keen when it comes to doing something for others, even when you’re not getting anything in return. Well truth is, there are still people who stand strong in their beliefs and believe that there’s still a couple of good people in this realistic world. If you’re reading this and you agree, start doing one random act of kindness daily; you’ll be surprise with that sort of happiness you get in return.

Trust me.

Being in my shoes, when you’re so exposed having people stalking you reading your every move (can’t say that I didn’t fuel that wtf) but its just one part of life which you’ve ought that accept that sometimes you’ve got to embrace situations. There’s no need to justify yourself, on why you do something; because at the end of the day, I don’t really care anymore. I’m driven by the force to just be happy,and there’ll be people or rather shadows slippin’ in and out our lives hoping to rob an ounce of happiness before they vanish into thin air again. Don’t for a second doubt yourself, this life is yours; live it and be happy about it.

Some snapshot taken over Skype wtf. Hope this made you laugh too.

When the world says, Give up,
Hope whispers, Try it one more time.
When you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.
