Its all about TV

A tennis ball is a ball designed for the sport of tennis approximately 6.7 cm (2.7 in.) in diameter and is yellow or light green in color. In the early days of tennis, balls were often made of leather stuffed with hair or wool. Early tennis balls were made by Scottish craftsmen. These tennis balls were commonly made from a wool-wrapped stomach of a sheep or goat and tied with rope. Yellow and white are the only colors approved by the United States Tennis Association (USTA) and ITF, and most balls produced are fluorescent yellow (known as "optic yellow") the color first being introduced in 1972 following research demonstrating they were more visible on television. Tennis balls are filled with air and are surfaced by a uniform felt-covered rubber compound.

After a tennis wacking session at Thomas's place we had dinner and yet another ranting session. Not to mention a cockroach scare with me squashing yanghan and dawn standing on the bench. Do u knoe that according to treehugger.com the tennis ball are actually recycled in japan. They attach the balls to the bottom of tables and chairs in classrooms. Apparently this reduces wear and tear on floors, whilst it also “drastically reduces extraneous noise, creating a better learning atmosphere.” Especially so for children with hearing aids who are sensitive to sudden loud noise or background interference. Maybe we shd all place a ball as the sole of our shoes especially the girls' heels.

DO YOU GUYS MISS US?

alamak...haha

the pic of me the last post was taken some time ago hee...

Its a sunday night while Jia is waiting to have dinner in about an hours time, i shall attempt doing my UD quiz. Its a quiz that consist of 3 question (5 marks, 5 marks, 10 marks) and we have to hard up a hard copy after a week. Someone please enlighten me on the " dynamics governing the form of many Asian Cities".

Nick sent me the URA scholarship email. Of which i might have clicked the delete button with a blink of an eye. Now i take a second look at it. Somehow in this bleak economic outlook, i reckon i could give this email a browse. How? Can u guys picture Jia at URA? I promise to stay funky... :)

Woohoo...submission is O_V_E_R.

Its so odd that after 4 years in NUS i feel as if i have learnt nothing. I mean how many of us can truely draw a detail?..Jon..Pek...a handful i think. We have become so jaded that we complain tt the year one are so noisy, they spoil the laser machine ( part of which is true la ) , we present our project while sleepwalking. Sigh, wat have become of us.

Yes it is true i still fear some tutors. WHy? Perhaps this way i'm more motivated to produce work otherwise i thinkn i wun bother. Fear is the only driver...perhaps.

Jia will be at LuLu again frm next wk as Auntie Nat needs help. At the looks of it, it will be a long wat till i actually start ( or di o really want to ) on an architecture related job.Haha.

Take a break man. CHill!

SUX

Jia thinks model looks better stacked up...how?

Ok this is rejected...cause can see structure. Anyways, Joe my tutor, not the plumer, did another grp crit thingy...wat biang. It was a tiring.

Studio for sem2
Less den half of us turned up to listen to wat the tutors hav to say. Not like they missed much anyways. Hee Limin started first, kinda insulted us thinking that we cant read. She wrote a brief that is 3 pages long with reference somemore. Great work but nah...dun think i want her. Den there is Joseph, shux read his brief ( which btw is the most convincing one ) and said his this sem brief is more challenging that next sem's industrial housing. Bobby...o bobby, unprepared and clueless. Tan Teck Kiam..sounds like his studio is doing his company's work for him...pretty commerical. Richard wasnt there neither was TKS.( note TKS's brief : the lack of capital latters after fullstops..haha)

UD assignment is such a chore. Joe told us to focus " architectural students cannot spend their whole life completing assignment". And the worst thing, our RM 2000 ( research methodology 2000 words ) is due the same day as studio submission! The RM tutor is not extending the dateline folks! Mb we shd strike.
