yeah..its time for the weekly update again.
went for the nac bursary interview on tuesday afternoon. was neatly dressed for the 'occasion' - white long sleeve shirt, grey pants and grey tie- never looked so smart b4. even took a cab from tampines down to mita buliding so as to prevent me from pespirating. and when i reached there, there were 3 people b4 me still waiting for their turn - 2 malay guys and this chinese girl. they were classmates and from either lasalle or nafa. all of them going to australia. anyway, when i reached there, the girl diao me okie? coz they were all in jeans and t shirts! (a sleeve top for that girl) can still remember the mockery look in her face. so irritating. :P one of the guys was wearing slippers somemore. but i was so nervous at that moment i couldnt care less.
anyway, i am quite sure that girl just crumbled and died inside then interview room coz it was INTIMIDATING! there were 10 interviewers sitting around the conference room, with you at one side of the table. each had a huge stack of application forms in front of them, and when they started flipping through my application forms, essay and letters the moment i sat down.... followed by numerous qns and qns.... :P so scary. asked me why i chose goldsmiths... and wnat i wanna do after i grad. but i dun think i stand a good chance lah... they seemed me impressed with my design stuff than fine art stuff ( of course ... what fine art stuff i have in the first place? ) so... there goes....
keeping my fingers crossed. the results will prob be out in aug, and meanwhile i am preparing myself for the nac/taka interview. havent heard anything from them yet, but since they asked me to go for this fine art bursary interview, they better get me down for the taka design scholarship as well. at least i have an idea of how it is like... and hopefully i will do well and better for the next one ( if i get to go for the interview that is)
anyway, went to help out ms yeo at the conference hall this afternoon. so proud of ms yeo... nj 3 golds okie? no ohter schs got all gold leh.. or 3 golds. nj best ah! she submitted a fashion design and 2 installations... quite surprised they got gold.. coz if u see the works, they are not visually 'beautiful', as compared to the numerous esquisite batiks and colourful paintings around. but i guess the 3 works have very strong concept and srtistic statement, thats why they got gold.
was help one of the girls hanging her installation. i realise they are such perfectionists. i remembered 2 years ago me and adrian were at art museum also and we didnt spend much effort hanging jinahao's cat. but i tell u ah.. i help those 2 girls till i wanna vomit blood. ms yeo was like there (physically)but not there(mentally). she was sooo tired helping them hang the stuff up. hmm... sometimes i think they should juz aga aga more instead of trying to replicate what they did back in sch. haha.. or i think i was juz too lazy.
helping them with their project reminded me of the 5 tj yr 2s i am helping. i so swear mr lim put a curse on me when i dropped project in yr 2, coz 3 years later i have to do 5 times the work. :P there's this 2 girls doing batik, but after looking at the syf works, some of the sec 4 o level projects batik are soooo good. dunno how they can match or surpass those at a level standard. maybe lesley can help ah?! *hint hint*
hmm...... headache. anyway, the syf is on tmrw till 1 aug. at singapore conference hall, walking distance from tanjong pagar mrt. me going tomorrow again. :P with the tj yr ones.
okie... i typed alot. thats all for this weeks update!
