MOdelling

I know that is a long time I dint write a post...Im damn busy with the assignment, presentation and studio.. But, there is one subject which is quite interesting for me..research on a Malay house.
Now, since my group members finished the drawings already, it is a great time for me to do a model. Some of the people will think that I was the crazy people to do this kind of model...
waste money, wasting time and wasting material..
Anyway, for me is fun, interesting and amazing..

First, what you have to do is prepare a transparent color paper and soft board..
(if you want to try la)...

Cut, paste and make sure all the works are neat.

Waiting for the inspiration.

The most difficult part of this model is I have to reduce the thickness of the soft board.
Nothing much, just be more patient..

Den Den Den Den

Look at the screen.,..,., OMG.. stil have a lot to go...
I spend one hour for each component...

This is the pelarai...this will be more crazy...I have to divide the thickness of the soft
board into 3 parts..

Here is the final product for the two components..


Facial treatment..scary..

When I check my mail today, I saw something very scary, and 'dirty' facial treatment.
This treatment can be found in Korean nowadays and the price is not cheap..
Dare to challenge?
Ok...now is the time to punish the cockroach...
Help.....
Please...this is too smelly, I think..
Seriously, it looks like putting the mixture of shit and organ on the face....

Omg..look at the small insect's leg....on her face..yarh....!!
I think she must be very hate the cockroach...haha

Busy life....no time ..no food and no sleep...3N

This semester is so busy...measure drawing , 1st project , subject.........
Architecture life is no easy... For example.. you have to do a section, facing the laptop for 15 hours...then only have a meal that prepare from ourself in order to release the stress..
Some of my secondary school friends just do not believe that what i said..but, honestly
IM SERIOUS..
Time, food, sleep are just a basic things....why architecture student do not have the right to obtain it?
Last night (this morning...actually our time is reverse...), just finished isometric drawing..
and rushing for the submission. Should I enjoy this kind of life style...
The answer is yes...?

Anyway, I have a great time with jimmy, my roommate.
Preparing for the dinner in our room is a fun activity...few days ago, we have brown rice, bacon, baked bean and some meat sauce..taste nice..

My last day in Penang

Today is the last day in Penang. Can't wait to explore more place.
The lily that I showed two days ago.... I'm sure "time can proof everything".
This morning, we went to the Khoo Kongsi, Sun Yat Sen house and some art galleries.
Around afternoon, we decided to go to Queensbay Mall..
Since we have do so much work, it is time for us to shopping.

Here it is...Queensbay mall...Honestly, it has some similarity with Mid Valley..
Again, this is one of the successful shopping mall..full with people, the space is confusing enough..
and the most important is...toilet-FOC.

The steel structure in the lobby..

The glass on the wall create a natural lighting to the shopping mall.

Between, my friend is helping his ****friend cleaning the bird's shit.

I having my lunch in Nando with Chin keng and jimmy. Actually, this is my second time having a meal in Nando.. I like the chicken peri-peri..
The sauce is quite special also....got hot peri-peri, Mild peri-peri, Tomato and garlic flavour.

Some of the decoration in the Nando restaurant.

Jimmy- a cute and funny guy...

Yea...this is my delicious meal with corn and potato..After I get the salary from nuffnang, I will try to belanja someone..hehe.

Penang free school, one of the famous school in Penang.


In the evening, we meet the real cendol guy...yea. Penang road chendol...
Remember, if you have chance to go to Penang, try this...

This is my last dinner in Penang- Lok bak. Between, I ate wan tan mee also..


Lastly, I drink one glass of fresh milk in the mamak stall...
Good night..

Khoo Kongsi

The Khoo Kongsi is a clan association of the Leong San Tong (Dragon Mountain Hall) clan, whose forefathers came from Sin Kang clan village in Hokkien province. The Khoos were among the wealthy traders of 17th century Malacca and early Penang.
In the 19th century, the clan complex resembled a miniature clan village, with its own self-government as well as educational, financial, welfare and social organisations.
The clan temple was built in 1906 when the Khoo clan was at the height of wealth and eminence in Penang society.

The entrance of the Khoo Kongsi is so dark but interesting. I can't imagine the temple is just inside this street.

The ornament, decoration and the amazing stone carving. Everything is just perfect.






Besides that, the mural on the walls represent the ancient chinese's life style.






Some of the detailing in the temple.

Second.......

Today is the second day I stay in Penang. I woke up at 8.30am this morning.. No mood to start the site analysis at all. Jimmy, Chin keng and I have to start our work today..
First, we took bus and went to KOMTAR and looking for JUPEM( Jabatan Ukur Dan Pemetaan Malaysia) to buy a plan of our site.
Before this, Chin Keng brings us to the famous Chendol stall for our breakfast.

After ate the chendol, all of us shared the laksa in a kopitiam. The stupid tauke force us to buy a drink ...If not, he will charge us RM0.50.

After having the breakfast, we went to the main office inside the KOMTAR. The building is quite impress for me. Eventhough the building is quite old already, but the concept of ventilation, natural lighting and space planning are perfect.

Eat again...
After we took the plan from JUPEM, we took bus and go to our site..somewhere around Gurney drive. Since there is lunch hour, we just spend some time in mamak's stall.
Not bad..and quite cheap.
Before we reach the site, we have some great time in the temple around that area.
The decoration in that building really fantastic.

Here, our site, jz between the high rise and the sea. Fantastic. Our project is have to design a international art school in this area.
Some building around the site...give me some inspiration

Social activity in the seaside. Actually, I'm not sure what is he doing at...looking for gold?

A scary doll with sad expression reflect the life of the fisherman here...i think

Let me tell you what is useless decoration. Two big steel arch rod put on the pedestrian bridge just have to show the aesthetic of his/her design. Waste money!

One of the high class private condominium around the site.

At the way back to guest house, I saw a beautiful church along the road site.
Today is a tired day, have to sleep soon.
Chin Keng went back to Butterworth..
Jimmy meet his friends...
And I spend a splendid night to write my post...I love Penang's food
