Shall blog about the FIRST week of school.

Welcome of Ngee Ann Poly!

First week of school is quite slack of course. Ha. On Monday, went to school for IS at 10pm. Just only IS. It’s contemporary issues. I could only say that the tutorial room is cold! I must bring my jacket there the next time. Watch a movie or short clip by Eric Koo. (Not sure if the name is spelt correctly.) Went home after that.

On Tuesday, lesson starts at 12pm. Went to school for studio production and photography until 2pm and it’s breaktime! After that, storytelling techniques tutorial start at 3pm. I realise that everyone’s English are so strong! I’m really worried that I would fail my storytelling techniques & written communication. Can they like lower the expectations of English? Ha. I must admit I’m an English C5 student. This really reminds me of that time I went for the interview. The interviewer asked me for my grades. Then she said, my Chinese is better than English, why didn’t I choose Chinese Studies? I really don’t know how to answer her question. Actually, I prefer Chinese more than English. If only there is Chinese Mass Communication.

Went for Introduction To Film at 9am on Wednesday. Actually, I thought the lecture would be sometime like teaching us the history of film. (That would be taught the next year.) But, it’s not! We are watching flims instead. So, that was a surprise of the day! *Smiles* Watched the film “Shadow of the doubt”. It was those black and white movie. After the movie, I was so hungry! Went to have lunch with friends at SIM.

Had spaghetti bolognese.

It was Art & Design after that. Oh no! I must admit that I can’t draw. I just hope I can pass this module. I don’t want to fail any module in my 3 years in poly! Went to collect our EZ-link card after that with friends too. Went home after that.

School starts as early as 8am on Thursday! Actually, I woke up early. But I was late for lecture! I woke up at around 6.10am and the journey to school was USUALLY less than an hour. So, i left home at around 7am and took bus to school. But, who knows, I’m stuck in a traffic jam! Ok, now I know, when lessons starts at 8am, I will have to leave home early to prevent traffic jam! What makes it worse is that, I will have to climb this…

HILL! Then I am able to reach block 52! It’s uphill! That’s very tiring ok? (Laughs) I have to walk against the gravity. How terrible.

Went for studio production. My long waited studio production! Listened to some briefing from our lecturer – Mr Douglas. Then, we are able to touch those equipment! But, I didn’t have a chance to touch the camera. So, we are at the, erm. Control room? Director room? Haha. I don’t know what is it called. Oh my god! Studio production is so fun! (: I actually laughed until my stomache pain! Reason is because, Calvin and Li were doing an interview between themselves. I think they said something funny or it’s their actions which are funny. So, I laughed. Ok, I admit, I’m a person who laughs easily. (Hahaha.) Yes, I love studio production! :D Fun is the word to describe!

After studio production, we had 3 hours break! So, we went to SIM again with the whole class! Ate chicken rice. Then we went back to school. Split into 2 groups (i think). For the group I am in, we went to our space@72. Used our laptops there. Talked and laughed again. Oh! I think I am too HIGH that day. In the end, I got a headache. So, I couldn’t really concentrate for Introduction To Film tutorial. I actually fell asleep during tutorial. :x Only fell asleep for awhile when our lecturer is playing the trailer. Woke up after that. If only the tutorial for Introduction To Film can be pushed up or something. Imagine lesson from 8am – 5pm! So tiring.

Bought this book for Introduction To Film. It cost $37.10, including the book cover. Expensive huh?

The last day of the week! It’s photography tutorial! Yes, I love photography too! Tutorial at 12pm – 3pm. Actually I thought it is possible to push the tutorial up to maybe 9am or 10am? But, it seems like it is quite hard. Maybe everything is already set? Don’t know. Anyway, we borrowed the camera from the cage? Or what is it called? I heard our lecturer said something like ‘cage’ or something like that. Or I am having hearing problems? Ha.

It’s around here. FMS block!

When getting our camera, I was hoping to get a number 3 camera. And guess what? I actually got…

Yes, a number 3! (Grins.)

Side view of the camera.

The stones outside our space@72! Erm, just an ART!

We were taught how to check the camera and some functions of the camera. That’s all I guess. We ended class early today. Ends at around 2.30pm? So, went to have our lunch at block 18? Canteen 2.

Had pasta again! Oh, I’m so addicted to pasta!!!

Cheng teng. The ice melts very quickly. And, I think it is not sweet enough. Tasteless.

Look at the cheng teng and the one with black dots. It’s mine and Winnie’s. We didn’t finished it because we finds it tasteless. It cost 60 cents. So, like the chinese saying, “一分钱一分货”. How much you pay is how much you get.

When going home on bus, I saw this on the bus window. Must be the work of the young kids!

PS: Oh my goodness! This is the FIRST TIME I actually write in proper English! Proper as in, capital letters for the first word of the sentences and ‘I’. No Singlish too! Haha. :D
