CTX (Week 18, 19)

|Reflection|

To be honest, I hard time choosing what I wanted to enroll in foundation.

Don't get me wrong, I love drawing and creating new designs and such, but I was conflicted whether I wanted to further learn about design or choose another. I was never good at biology or business to be frank so that's out of the list. For math, I'd rather count how many pineapples Bob bought from the store than to extend to add math. So that's out too.

After some brain explosions and multiple headaches, I decieded to try design.

Best decision.

I never could have imagined FID to be this fun where I would be excited to see what assignments are instore next. Sometimes. Of course I would say sometimes, don't be surprised. Work isn't all rainbows and sunshine. Waking up early in the morning is dreadful to say the least. Stressing about deadlines is another thing, let alone having so many on the SAME day. I can barely sleep sometimes, indulge coffee like water and bang my head three times a day.

Other than that, I had fun throughout the year, escpecially getting to know my classmates. Each with amazing different personality and all mostly from Malaysia...

I've also learned so many great things. I now know so many art stores that I lost count. I learned how to depend on myself. For example in figure drawing, Mr Ernesto gave us a simple intruction to build a human sculture using only the means of wires. Wires! No lesson for this, no briefings. 'Look at the example of your seniours and build the sculpture.'

Very independent, Indeed.

One of the many things I really liked about design is that I don't have to study from textbooks anymore. No exams, but many many assignments and final projects... I'm not complaining.

FID was my best decision and I'm glad I didn't choose something I would regret later in life.
