Stress advocates quick reponse.
Finally today i managed to finish all my prints. :D So happy..haha..Managed to get to college around 8.40am today..cause i had my mobile phone as my alarm and also i asked Oja to give me a wake up call just in-case i couldnt be awaken by my mobile phone. hehe. :) So got to go college pretty early and managed to put my name down to book for the usage of the print station in the darkroom. The hightlight of the morning though was the sight of a backhoe on the highway, trying to reverse back cause he missed the turn-off to PutraJaya. His friend was on another backhoe waiting by the roadside just before the turn-off. I mean,where do they even find drivers like these? Did the government just give them their licence without actually giving them a practical exam? Or did they just get those ex-mini bus drivers..haha. :P There were cars zooming past the backhoe but the driver was oblivious to the traffic and he kept reversing..the government should start monitering crazy drivers such as these so that there wont be so many accidents involving big trunks or machines like those on the road thats taking away innocent lifes.
Anyways,spent like the whole morning and half the afternoon in the darkroom again trying to get about 2 black & white prints out and my photogram [non-negative] and also my contact prints out which i must say i was very successful with on my photogram i think. ;) Came out pretty well on the first try but the composition wasnt so good so i tried another one. :) The 2 black & white prints i had for the day was pretty good too..didnt have to use too many slices of test strips this time round..guess i've done it so many times and made so many mistakes that now i've gotten pretty good at it.. ;) But i think we still did it wrong cause by right we were suppose to keep the prints in the developer section for a solid 3 minute instead of just taking it out when we see the photo appearing on the photo paper.
Oh well,i guess the next time we ever do this..we'll be able to get it right. :) Cause if we had kept it in the developer section for the entire duration of 3 minutes..the black would come out as black and not a dark shade of grey which it seems one of the lecturer will NOT accept but for Mr. Lee..he said he was ok with it..so i guess we're lucky to have him as our lecturer..hehe. :D Well,suppose to have gone for my History of Art test but i skipped it cause by 1pm i only had my 2 black & white prints so i needed the time to do my contact prints and also my photogram. Cause today the photolab had to close early around 3pm...all because of the stupid rehearsal for this coming Monday when our beloved Prime Minister Pak Lah is coming to LUCT to officiate the opening of MDTC and also of LUCT's new campus in CyberJaya. So in-order to make sure that everything is running well during the real thing..the people at LUCT is having their rehearsal which lasted til like 6pm. Well,i dont have much to complain about cause at least i got to see the choir perform..haha. ;) And also the bunch of international students lining up at the main entrance of the MTDC [Design Plaza] to welcome Pak Lah. :)
Oh well,so thats whats gonna be down on Monday in LUCT..so if u people are too free and have nothing better to do..come by to LUCT's new campus and see for urself..how black the building can be..haha. ;) Pretty happy about it too cause there wont be any classes on Monday and that means we wont have to see Mr. Nik! :D YAY! Dont have to see the big-mouth, loud talker, degrader dumb@$$ that doesnt know how to teach even though he knows his stuff. So all in all,today was pretty good..managed to finish my work and even help some other people with their work. :P Met this girl, Jessica through Siti another girl which was in my class last semester but was transferred to another class because of her majoring subject. :) Saw me helping Siti develop her roll of film on Wednesday and thought that i was good at what i do so she asked me to help her with her printing stuffs but on Wednesday i still had alot of work to do so i didnt really help her do much plus i didnt have my own station to use..so couldnt really help her even if i wanted to.. :P
See, act smart in front of people and suddenly everybody that saw how smart u are will come over to ask u for help..So the lesson to learn here is that when u are not done with ur work, dont ever try to act smart in front of other people. They'll see that u're smart and want u to help. ;) So if u dont want to help yet then just act dumb and everything will be fine..hehe. ;) So i've used double-sided tape to tape down all the prints that i want to hand in tomorrow on a 10 x 12 mounting board. But kinda screwed one of the good prints up cause i didnt paste it on the mounting board correctly..cant really see the difference but kinda spoilt it so might not be using that. ;) What a waste.. :P Anyways,pretty happy now that i've finished with all the printing and stuffs. :) No more going to the darkroom and smelling all the chemicals. :D
Guess i'll be off now..cause i still need to try to complete some other work and try to get some shut-eye..been really really tired the whole day..guess i'm not used to waking up so early..haha. ;) I hope tomorrow there wont be any Communication Studies class so that i can get home to sleep then go for my kickboxing class at 6.45pm..hehe. ;) Cant wait to go and release some stress on the punching bag and the kickbag..hehe. :P *YAWN* "Bonne nuit, mes amis." "Au revoir."
