Tagged: Life is Good. Thanx Rain!




1. If you blog anonymously, are you happy doing this? If you aren’t anonymous, do you wish you started out anonymously, so that you could be anonymous now?
Obviously i am not anonymous, i have no reason for not being anonymous and i don't wish i started out anonymously and i find it alright that i'm not anonymous now... 
2. Describe an incident that shows your inner stubborn side?
I can get pretty stubborn, if i really believe in something. Once during my second year in my Bachelor Degree class, for our final project I got so into my high rise container hotel (I was an architecture student, fyi). The site was in Ampang, which is quite a prime area in Kuala Lumpur. I proposed the hotel for a client name MUJI, a japanese brand "the no brands brand", and i was the only one in class who proposed the hotel to be a 3 star hotel. (because the fact i proposed some parts of the container to be capsule like module), I had 2 studio supervisor at the time. One loved the idea, and One HATED the idea. It was one project that I really put my head into research, went to see numbers on lecturers for advice just to make the project 'workable'. The one lecturer who hated the proposal wanted to fail me. I thought he was being bias. So, i stood my ground and i didnt change my design and initial idea. I got a C for it, (because the other lecturer gave me an A) and i really couldn't care less about my grade. I took pride with my project, and it paid off when it got into the Architecture Department Studio Review book (as the ONLY non-A work to be published), and the building model stood proudly in the University exhibition Gallery. 


3. What do you see when you really look at yourself in the mirror?
My baby bump starting to grow, and my long hair (because i haven't cut it since my father passed away)-this is my first time ever growing my hair. All my life, my hair has never exceed shoulder length..So, i still i couldn't believe how long it is...

4. What is your favorite summer cold drink?
Cold Juice....

5. When you take time for yourself, what do you do?
Reading, Watching Movie, Sleep...(seriously..sleep is good) Walking around and people watching...

6. Is there something that you still want to accomplish in your life?
Alhamdulillah, i had accomplished things that i never imagined i could accomplised...but insyaAllah I would love to go forward with my thesis and really make it into part of my life when we finally build our house..

7. When you attended school, were you the class clown, the class overachiever, the shy person, or always ditching?
None...I was the quirky, weird, hippy one who always have a cigarette in her mouth, and guitar in her hand...LOL. but i don't ditch class...i practically LIVE in my class (studio)



8. If you close your eyes and want to visualize a very poignant moment in your life, what would you see?
It flashes through because there were so many...although it's hard to feel all regret about it since it did made me who i am today..
  

9. Is it easy for you to share your true self in your blog, or are you more comfortable writing posts about other people and events?
The reason why i wrote a blog on the first place because i would want to remind myself of the lesson i learned in life. I don't really need to pour out to the last detail, because it was me who experienced me, all i need to be reminded that i have gone through such and such and i should remember such and such. So, i'm pretty comfortable reminding myself to remain myself. 


10. If you had the choice to sit down and read a book or talk on the phone, which would you do and why?
Read a book, because i always prefer real human conversation rather than just voices on the phone. sometimes, i wish the phone was not invented...

I am the same way about the phone. I don't like talking on the phone. I always prefer talking in real life or email.

But i do prefer talking on the phone than short messages, the fact that you can get through questions and answers way faster on the phone than going back and forth over 'where are you?' within 10 minutes on sms'es (short text/message)

Yet, regardless phone being a communication tools, i somehow feel less connected by not having a real human person infront of me.
