We've Created.

It was an amazing day... In fact, it was so great that i couldn't even begin to describe. Perhaps if you ever had a great burden lift off your shoulders after a great many number of days, if you had seen the reward spilling from a piece of work which took you 2, 3 years to complete, then maybe you would understand. But otherwise, i don't see how you can possibly feel what each of us felt that day. Amazing...

The School of Art, Design and Media held our first ever FYP show on 28th April 2009, showcasing works from all majors - Visual Communication, Product Design, Interactive Media, Film, Photography and Animation, with artworks spanning from still shots to prototypes, from sketches to actual film reels. All these proved one thing - We, ADM's pioneer batch (05/06), have created.

These are some high standards for the later generations to keep up with. But then again, where are the surprises if these were to get too easy? Well, most importantly though, have fun while creating, because in the end, that's all that matters.

Cheers,
Ellen

長大了。

I have 'grown uped' a tad over the past few years in ADM. It wasn't a complete waste of time after all.

I have gotten to know and learn under some great teachers.
I have gotten to know film. I don't understand it completely, but I realized it's something I love.
I have gotten to know friends, and even worked with people whom I couldn't quite comprehend.
I have gotten to taste relationships, bizarre and complicated things they are; but i loved every of these memories, bitter or sweet.
I have gotten to know myself, what I want, and what I need. Getting them is not a definite, but thing is, I see.
I have gotten to know my family, and appreciate them for all there is.

I am truly glad to have been in ADM, no matter how much complaints there had been. And to all fellow 4th year Pioneer Batch of ADMers... It had been a really fun 4 years.. ^-^ I really couldn't see myself knowing a batch more fun and colourful than you all!

I'll have to admit,
I'm not in the best of moods these days.

I'm bothered by his coldness,
I'm uncomfortable with the distance.
I'm unused to the void that used to be his place.

I told a friend that I don't care.
I told her that he's just not being fair.

Well... I kept telling myself the same.
That perhaps, he's just a friend in name.

I didn't even know what made him leave.
And if it's my fault, listen up boy

I'm truly sorry.

就

不知怎麼了，
不知何時的，
快要瘋掉了，
遲些時候嘛，
問他怎麼了呀，
忍著眼淚嗎？
讓他去吧，
把他忘了吧，
想放手啊，
舍不的吧．．．

I think...

Okie, this is scary.

I'm really affected by his moods. But I don't know why.
I want him to be happy. But I'm not sure why.
I wish he'd care. But why should he?

Yup... summary. He's the same guy that taught me about "被人慰婉距绝”. Maybe he's doing just that to me now... Before I go even further. But why not just spell it out? It's harsh, yes. But clearer... and I don't have to guess.

It's like.... Soooo Long Since.

Yup... i'm back with a post since god-knows-when...

This is turning out to be a really surreal semester. I can't really make myself feel interested in schoolwork. I'm beginning to think like, "this degree, it's cool, ya. But so what?" Haiz... turns out that our batch is really feeling the O.o now that FYP is rolling underway.

Lots of unhappiness over that the last semester, then suddenly, it just felt that someone turned off the lights and everyone decided that the best way for it is to just remain off. Put a gaffer tape over that switch. No point arguing, fighting for something that doesn't really exist.

Singapore's First Fine Arts Degree in Digital Filmmaking

Geez... We should first have degrees like Hospitality Towards Filmmakers, Management of Locations for Film Shoots and Friendly Enemies for Filmmakers-Wannabe first... Soon, we'd be thrown out there, soon, we'd have to choose our paths. And I'm already seeing a lot of pathfinders turn followers emerge. This is sad.

Alright, enough of the emo-cloud. I'm passing it. Just do wad i can in Production Design for now, learn as i work, get those portfolios out (and another thing, I suck at portfolios.. >.<) So well, work harder then! Going to school soon, some discussion about art dept for a new production. Let's make it work.
