Hello!!

Yup..I was fighting some mental war that day...

On tues, I just felt like breaking down. There were just too many deadlines together. Yes...that's one thing I learnt so far in uni. Last min work does work for me but it's really very, very stressful.. And I shouldn't leave this to the last min. Really don't know what will crop up or what mood would I have.

Just as bad, I am living on a last minute schedule again... I have a term paper due on mon 12pm. But coz I have tutorial at 9pm, I HAVE to finish it by SUN! And it's going to be crap coz i don't know what I am suppose to write on. 10 pages and I am only at 2...Haiz...

Oh yes...TUES!

TUES was a very, very, very bad day... (song: YOU HAD A BAD DAY!!!)

I was rushing a term paper that was to be due on THURS 12 pm. Yes... Last min work again.

Seriously, I don't know where my time has been spent on. It's not hall coz I don't have much hall activities now. It's like accumulative work that I can't seem to finish. Oh well..but i finished my term paper and did hand in on thurs. (CRAP WORK)

And tues was like seriously bad coz my MNO proj group had problems editing the video. We have to do a video for our project and it has restrictions like handing in by Sat 2359hrs, below or 9mins etc..

We were in dire straits coz we wanted to use Adobe Premiere Pro but we have no idea how to operate it. We went to the multimedia lab but we couldn't catch what she taught us. And we were using an older version of Adobe Premiere Ver 6. So, it didn't have a lot of things that the Pro has. The multimedia girl didn't know how to use our version. Thus, we decided to go back and figure it out ourselves. Many groups have by now finished doing the project and we were quite pressurized.

We played around the whole afternoon with Adobe ver 6 but didn't get anything out. We even came up with the idea of outsourcing. I didn't agree but the whole group wanted. So my friend went to ask her friend to help for us. Her friend said ok...but didn't demand for payment. I was thinking that she wouldn't do it for us with such requirements and all...

During tutorial, I wasn't really paying attention. It was the tutorial for this video proj module. The tutor discussed with us on TOXIC EMOTIONS and I did feel quite stressed and sad at that point in time coz we didn't have our proj done and I still had my term paper!

Anyway, we met after class to do out more of the proj.

I went back hall and thought through what my dad told me over the phone...

"Your brother can make a video out of Windows Media Maker (WMM), why can't you?"

And so, I gave up on my term paper for that night and went to try to use WMM.

POOF!!

I managed to link the files together and I got a flowing video! Just that I was too tired to put in the whatever animations etc...

I went to sleep and got up the next morning suppose to do my term paper but in the end, I did the video instead. I put in some captions, animations etc..

Eshlene and Jackson were to go and learn how to use Adobe Premiere but I told them I managed to do the video on WMM. Thus, they came over to have a look. It was so USER FRIENDLY! And quite idiot proof. So, we decided to use WMM.

I got addicted to doing the proj since it could only be done on my HP laptop. And I was making changes to it like almost all the time!

I spent
Wed afternoon and a bit of Wed night
Thurs night
Fri 1230pm - 1230am
Sat 11am - 1030pm

And yes!! We are finally done with the VIDEO!! Yippee! I am so proud of it! :)

And here it is!

If not for my group mates, I don't think I would have bothered about the project. Thanks to Eshlene, Jackson, Huifang, Cindy, Eyin and Mohsin for being my group mates!! I really had loads of fun doing this video! :)

And this reminds me of J1 PW! Thanks to Shaz, we were able to get the video done. At that time...I don't think technology was so advanced!! haha!!

Forgive me for my poor sentence structure and all...I am very tired. Finally, the proj has ended, just for a short presentation of this video to the class on tues! And i stil have my term paper to write...

Oh yes...I am in hall now. Apparantly...

I was supposed to go home like 1,2 pm...but coz of the project, I didn't go my grandparents place, and didn't go home...And I have to go church from hall on my own tmr/later. And I would be back in hall after lunch too! Haiz...sad life.. But for the sake of the proj and for my term paper...

Anyways, do watch the video and support my group kk! :)

Thanks lots!

After mon, the week would be good :)
