Action speaks louder than words.

In the past, I've turned my curiosity and motivation into achievements. And after being lost for a time being, I've finally found a new curiosity.

This is what makes us human, first we get curious, then we are motivated to find out more.

Now that I'm finally here, compared to those achievements from before, this is going to be one long and difficult journey.

But hey, what in life is ever easy?

Don't you find it annoying, that sometimes when you tell someone something, and they don't listen?

And at the end of the day, it comes back haunting you.

Well, I do, I find it extremely annoying. It has happened to me so often that I feel rather bored of it already. Too bad I'm not the kind of guy who likes to rub it in. Or else it'd be in your fucking face and I won't be rubbing no more, it'd be more like scrubbing.

Amen.

Well, after a week of full scale gaming, suddenly felt like CGing due to conscience of postponing this 'exploration' and 'practice'. Somehow this pic[below] started the fire, now I'm all fired up to do more, and curiosity is bringing myself to search for other artworks which suits my art direction, and from those artworks the artists started to inspire me. o.o

Compared to them, I still have a looooooooooooooong way to go. Gah!

Pressure, pressure.



Yes, is know that she is very the tall or has extremely long legs. : D

Edit : One more, just done recently.

Like, wow. Haha, haven't blogged in a while, every time I come in my own blog I see Sher Ree's msg asking me to update.

On a movies galore, been watching Die Hard 4, Disturbia, Men in Black, Face/Off, and yeaahhh, will continue from there. Though Die Hard 4 IS my movie analysis after all, so I'll take this fiesta as a research and study kinda thing. :D Waahaha.

Finally done with first project of 3D animation = Flour Sack. Here it is, The Robba-rie

Nothing much to update, other than the fact that both the 3D labs are really uncomfortable from inconsiderate seniors turning the music really loud and playing movies on the projector to the college being so stingy that they have to turn off the air conditioning having their students rely on those standing fans.

Having seen the circumstances, I think I'd save the stress for something else and work on my projects and assignments at home, where my air conditioning is working fine, where I have my super rig thanks to Ben and my laptop, where I can grab a snack or a bottle of beer any time I feel like it rather than being trapped outside after 12am like there's some kind of curfew, where I can focus all my attention too rather than to an inconsiderate bunch.

I want to go to that Pulau Redang trip that some of my ex-SSG friends are planning, but sadly the date is during my finals. =(

Hopefully I'll be able to make it to Singapore with Xiao this August. I want to travel! RAWR! Life is too short, I wanna try living mine to the fullest.

I guess I'll continue my night with watching Ghostbusters 2, just had the urge from playing the recent game. The game was pretty good, script writer did a good job on their dialogues, they never fail to make me chuckle at every phrase they say. The characters are a little stiff, and not so very interactive visually, like when Pete is talking, the group doesn't look at him, they all just look forward.

Another thing is well, the Rookie, or you the player, you can feel that your character is more 'animated' compared to the rest, haha. Gameplay is good, it's something new to me I must admit, rather fun and challenging in a way, like fishing.

Even though the game was rather straight forward and not so challenging, but I guess they developers were focusing more onto the story, which was alright but predictable. =/

Oh, the best part was that I get to slime my teammates, woo!

That would be news of men destroying mother nature once again. I've been going to Kenyir as if it was my second home, when I was a kid, every holiday I'd follow my dad up there to fish, jungle trek and etc.

During then, the fishes were huge and the water, clean. But nowadays, everytime I return to Kenyir, every year, I find myself seeing dirty water, the colour of tea. As stated in the news article. Not only was it brown, but it stinked as well and it was all due to these fuckers.

Have you not destroyed enough of wildlife and nature? Men made a beautiful lake, and from there mother nature did her job. But now, men is going to destroy it once again. Wtf is this?

This pisses me off to the core. Not only these bastards are going to endanger the wildlife or cut down trees, but they are destroying 2 tourist areas which are Tembat and Petuang. These are beautiful waterfalls, I've been visiting them almost every visit, and I love these places.

Esp Tembat, the giant waterfall is breathtaking. But nooo, you go ahead and destroy it, build your fucking dam in a dam.

Oh, let's not forget why I don't see anymore elephants anymore too, since they've been taken to the fucking zoo.

Thank god I took pictures of the waterfalls, these might be valuable memories of Tembat but let's hope they do something about it.












Can you imagine if this beautiful place was destroyed?

Well, they are. =)
You know who you are. Haha.

Regardless, first week of the new term going rather smoothly, still enjoying myself. First week 2 classes canceled. How sad is that. Frankly, I couldn't wait for Visual Storyboard, it just sounds like loads of fun.

Animation class today went pretty well too. Just that I had abit of problems solving some class exercise. That's the kinda brain juice I ran out off all the way back in high school.

Needs to start doing more productive stuff other than gaming and watching movies. Geez, we all tell ourselves that but ends up procrastinating, haha.

Speaking of 'that' kind of brain juice, I think I'm gonna have to be using alot of it from now on, even in my compositing and editing class I had problems. I feel that I'm losing it, not as sharp as I've used to be. =(

Dang.

Basically, I've found out my new schedule for the new term and also my results. Well, kinda disappointed at my results, but well, I guess at my refining stages I didn't put in as much effort as I should have.

Anyway, here are my results. Thanks Wen San for the upload.



Moving on, my timetable seems to be nearly the same as last terms, only that and hopefully Monday doesn't get occupied again. Or else, I'd have Sat ~ Mon off, and most of my classes will be in the evening once again. Haha!

Business and Client Management : 7~9pm

Compositing and Editing : 2:30 ~ 5:30pm

Visual Storytelling : 4:30 ~ 8:30pm

Adv 3d Modeling : 2:30 ~ 6:30pm

I guess the subject I'm looking forward to would be Visual Storytelling. Did I mention I don't really favour 3d? It just isn't my thing. >.>

And don't get me started on animation, I think I'll just go pull my hair out. Regardless of that, I'm just gonna have to go through it and finish it. Just 1 more year. The experience of making an animated film[even 5 minutes] will be quite rewarding, both in knowledge and experience.

Okay, let's see, I'm quite satisfied with what I have now, having this new rig kicks ass, and the assistant laptop is even much more kick ass! My job will be easier to accomplish now, not having need to struggle with a laptop and its tiny screen.

Being human, the hunger for more never ends, and as technology improves everyday, no one human will truly be satisfied. So, I guess my next target would be to get a bigger LCD screen! LMAO! Dual monitor screens! [But I needa ask my conscience again whether I truly need it or not >.>, guess it'll depend on what's ahead of time.]

Last but not least, work space! Tadaaa~
It's messy, I know I know.



Got to love those Altec Lansing speakers.

Can't believe term breaks ended. I was hoping for more traveling, Kenyir and Melaka just wasn't enough. =(
I really wanna go out to sea. GAH!
Moar Adventure pl0x!

Good morning ladies and gentlemen,

Today we have a special broadcast that SurfLoft contest is back again!



Like my previous blog entry, http://kenjie.blogdrive.com/archive/18.html

"Well, let me talk a little about the web site, more or less it updates you on the latest trends and technology and etc happening around us. The site is pretty straight forward with news and mostly are summarized for bite size reading. In short, it's for lazy people like myself. xD

Catching up to the latest trends has never been easier here. xD

Well, I've mostly been active in the forums / discussion area, pretty fun with friendly members. There is also an SOS section where if you can send out distress signals when you are facing issues like computer breakdowns or so.

Anyway, I don't wanna blab too much about it, why don't you go have a look yourself?

http://www.surfloft.com/"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So having summarized what SurfLoft is about, let's return to the original topic, the latest contest.

Firstly, there is the Best Surfie of the Week contest, where you stand a chance to win RM100 weekly. I mean, this is more or less similar to gold dropping from the sky, like for real. xD I won't say I'm a very active member in SurfLoft, nor am I inactive. But regardless I have to admit the Discussion forum is a fun place filled with friendly members from all around Malaysia.

The latest trends, news, eye candy[Leng Lui] and hey look, even my Dad's resort is being discussed there. xD



All you have to do is just post a comment related to the topic, and have fun doing so. =)

Second one is what I am doing now. Hehe. I'm blogging to let you know that there is a contest being held in SurfLoft. Just blog about the contest as creatively as possible and stand a chance to win RM150.

Well, I hope you guys will join in the contest and make it more competitive. *White Lie*

So heck, I've won RM300 before, why can't you? Come on and join in the fun. =)

Woot, after so long, I finally get the play games on all ultra high. :D Weeeee, not only that, taking out that RM200 for Altec Lansing speakers didn't go to waste neither, these babies are kick-ass!

Here's some picture of my workspace / gaming rig + laptop. =)







Speaking of which, just got back from Kenyir with lots of pretty pictures. Great bloody sunset and wonderful waterfalls. And lots of creepy crawlies as well, from a 5 inch cockroach-beetle to hairy moths and giant spiders. :D
