2012 (Again)

So, two days ago, I finished my last assignment and decided to hang out with my friends in Sunway Pyramid. It was almost 6.30 in the evening. We were too relax and starting to wonder how to spent the time. Haha, we had our dinner in Shogun and had our tummies filled with lotz of sushi(s)! Since it was a buffet, we basically stuffed as full as we can before we left the restaurant for a movie. Yeah, I stated before that I do not like 2012, but still, I went for it only to see the effect.

The entire movie was very predictable, and lack of explanation. You can simply spot the shadow of the Day After Tomorrow. I do not like the structure of the story, at least the way they promote the few main countries contributed their power to build the Arks. Haha, the main character is simply too superman and believe me you will agree with me if you watch the film. The American Heroism is too heavy within the film and I really don't like the part where the president of United State mentioned, "I will be the last president of America". Dude, that guy is a black guy and of coz most of you would had understand what the director meant!

I have to say, the effect is nice and I cannot complain much on it since it is a multimillion budgeted film. The particles are astonishing...... If you want to see the effect, go ahead. 2012 is the choice for u.

And yeah, Happy Holiday to all BAA students.

I'm an Animator

been working on a same piece of work for weeks and still stuck in the same point...... T_T

recently been thinking, working on environment is not really my profession, I kinda miss doing animation. I don't like to place stuffs in composition, but rather to move a character around. The only thing satisfied me in my piece of work is the animation of birds. I spent less then 3 hours to do it and it works perfectly. but then, most of the stuffs in my env are just too plain and I really feel like giving up. Wonder if can get good comment or not. I hate to say that, but I am pissed off by my own design. WTF!

...... (Deep breathing)

back to work.

2012


The hottest issue of the current is the movie of 2012. Haven't watch the film yet, but been hearing a lot of discussion of this film on net. People been talking about the recording of the ancient calender, blah blah blah...... lotz of crazy symptoms of forecasting the end of the world, this and that.

So, do u think there will be a Armageddon in 2012? Honestly, I don't. I personally think it is a kind of promoting technique from the Hollywood. They got this idea of making another Day After Tomorrow kind of film and simply get the idea of combining all those ancient discovery, predictions and phenomenons and together make out a film of disaster. Later on, they used back all this information, and spread out the news of these Earth dooming stuff on net to tell people this film is telling the truth. What a good technique. Most people would have fall for this trap and pay for the ticket. I am kinda irritated by Hollywood people because of the way of promoting this film. They are making global chaos and panic with a film. Tons of people believe that 2012 will be the last year of theirs on Earth. If you read news, many disaster happened (human made). These stupid people believed the film and are now doing stuffs they would like to do before their death.

Don't you guys think it's a bit weird? I've been living on Earth for 20 years and I had not been given any news of the doom of the Earth before the year of 2008. Isn't it a bit too slow for us to know that 3 years later will be the doom of the entire human civilization? These no use Hollywood people dug out the old news of the Maya calender only to promote the film.

Anyway, I will still go for the movie since the effect is nice. The water particles are crazy and I really want to learn that.

Jennifer's Body

So long didn't update my journal...... -____-||| Been busy like hell!

Yesterday, I went to IOI and watched one of the "suckiest" movie of 2009. So, I arrived at IOI around 2 something and found out the releasing date for 2012 is today. Shit...... Looking for another movie for replacement, I had to pick between Jennifer's Body and The Time Traveler Wife. Well, since I really don't like novel bade movie, I took JB as my choice and i bought a large popcorn before the movie started. It was a high school terror movie, sort of like a low budgeted movie. Well, I can see people around me came in just to see Megan Fox.

The movie was kinda suck, I don't like the way they end the story. There was no ghost busting in the movie and the heroine so sudden became super human and was able to fight the demon easily. Yeah, I pity Chipp who was killed in the movie and the way the Low Shoulder brothers sacrificed Jennifer. The part where Jennifer slipped into the heroine house was nice and spooky as well. Haha, no idea why in the hell Megan Fox would take part in such a film...... It kinda make her looks "cheap" in the movie. Seriously, I did not enjoy the show. But 6 dollar for a show in cinema was a not bad deal! ^^lll

Well, if you guys like high school terror, u may try it out! But I warned u, it's not a nice show! -_____-lll

So long didn't upload anything on my blog. My recent status is, I got myself into Facebook but found it super boring. -___-lll Just watched Pandorum. It was nice and out of my expectation, it is way so different from the impression of the poster. Recommend anyone who like zombie kind of movie to take a look. Burried under assignment at the moment and I just used $100+ last week. Emoing...... Well, hope this week will be better.

Some Weird Thoughts 2......

So, I was having some weird thoughts when I was having my dinner at a burger stall. I saw the burger guys work and work and work and serve the customers. Poeple might just say that these dude are just making little money by selling foods because they didn't went through proper education. I however felt kinda envy to their life but at the same time fear that this is gonna be my future. Sound stupid, huh? Well, let see this in this perspective:

Our life seems to be much more challenging and fulfilling compare to these burger men. But at the same time, , we students of design are dealing with both stress and competition.We are making money by stressing ourselves and race with time. Of course I understand that our path are significantly different, still I always have this thought of "why can't the making of animations be as simple as making burgers?" Haha, this is funny! My mum is a coffe shop runner and I used to work in the shop for quite a time. Maybe the reason why I have such a thought is all because of my past experiences of working in that coffee shop. I must say, it was quite relaxing (mentally not physically) to work in a coffee shop as there are not much limitation compare to works in office.

Like I said, I also kinda fear this is going to be my future. We live in a society with levels. People in upper level works in office, while lower level work in "Mamak" (no offence please). I've been working hard to get myself to the upper level and I sacrificed alot just to fulfill my dream. The problem is, I always get emotional and frustrated if things ain't not following my plans. These are the time when I wish I can just be a Mamak man. Haiz, kinda lame......

Well, these are just some weird thought and please do not take serious on it. Kaka!

Be Grateful and U Will be Better

These days, I found myself trapped in a state of "not so progressing". My footsteps are getting slower and slower and I somehow miss my days in the previous semester. I mean the semester when I was in the year of foundation. Ok, so, far until here you must be thinking, "ah, he complain again!" Read if you are comfortable with the topic else just ignore it.

I noticed, going to classes ain't as fun as it was back to the days. I was being optimistic toward almost every thing in the school. I'm a art student. Maybe it was because I was a total beginner for design and I was filled with great passion in doing my works and so was to meet my friends. Put it in this way, U give candies to a kid. Day by day, the taste of candy just ain't not changing much and yet the kid grow up and he learned. Soon he will find himself not liking it and he understand there are much better and sweeter candies out there which he had not taste before. I'm in that kind of situation at the moment (sorry for the lame metaphor).

Since life is getting "ciplak", I found myself a way to make life easier and funnier. Be grateful to the knowledge that I had learned in the school. I may not be attending the best classes ever, but at least I'm still on the track, seeking for my dream. I watch back my previous semester works when I was in the display room while doing my interview with the MQA people. I saw most of my works there. Though I have the copy but, I never browse. I saw my improvement. Really, for the first time, I am going to say this, I'm becoming better. I did not travel far, but the track and traces I made during the adventure is telling me "I'm working fine and steady".
