Architecture Presentation, Design Review
I thought working life was tough but this week’s design presentation really change my point of view, well, in working life you’re paid to work from 9 to 5, and you’re entitled to claim additional allowance when you rush for any submission, but student life appears to be the other way around, working hours is between the time you’re awake and stops when you’re sleeping.
That’s me, standing on the grey plinth, I get tongue tied during presentation, I hate presentation, on top of that English is not my mother tongue, it is really hard to express my design intention and from what I observe, those that are gifted in their presentation skills tend to out perform those that don’t, even if their works are not so impressive.
This reminds me of a discussion me and my friends had the other day, presentation is important but is it essential?

Suddenly I felt Old
September 3rd was my birthday, out of a sudden I felt old and time is catching up on me. Benjamin my house mate dislike the thought of a young person thinking that he or she is old, but what are my odds of living beyond 50? 60? Coffin is for the dead not the old. With my current health, I doubt I can make it anywhere close to 40.
Isn’t it ironic that when I was younger I am dying to leave school, then when I enter college I was dying to enter University, and then I was dying to finish my studies, probably I am dying to get married and now I am dying – slowly but surely, everyone dies every minute, as we grow we die a little. I guess in order to gain something we need some sacrifices.
I guess life is fair in many ways.
p.s. The sketch above reflect what I am, what I once was – and what I hope to become. There is no certainty only opportunity.
