freedom

when you are given so much, make sure you know what you want to do with it

... and it is not easy

Currently: Brainstorming ideas for final project which we have to create our own brief

TO LET

I've written a post with a same title on my group blog, Bus Tingkat Merah. But that's when we were still looking for a place for next year. Now, we have found one - and it's officially ours!

Lots of story behind this, we found a place that we like, we lost it, we went to see another house, we hated it...and so on

So, here are some pictures!

This is going to be my room - without the TV of course, and without the mess - a guy is living there at the moment.

These are the kitchen, and living room. Really nice compared to one of the house that we saw... let's just say, with that house you can't really walk barefoot - not because the floor is dirty but you will definitely get splinters because the wooden floor was kind of breaking off.

And, this house has a backyard as well :)

In September, I will be moving in with 3 of my friends: Ana, Maddie, and Meagan; and we are hoping that we can live here until we finish our degree.

So, what do you think?

Eco-reading

I'm very proud to say that I have found the perfect magazine!

As you can see from the picture it's called "Above Magazine: For the Earth"

Personally I think it's a combination between Dazed&Confused and National Geographic. What a unique combination, huh?

Basically this beautiful magazine shows the different approaches to protect the environment - or at least to be aware of what is happening at the moment. It has sections on culture, travel, fashion, architecture, art, beauty, food, music, living ... and the list goes on.

At Last ...

... this project is entirely finished!

I'm so glad that I can finally get it over and done with. After two months working on the same project, it got really boring. But to think of it, with a shorter period of time, we wouldn't be able to finish what we had to finish... so, I guess things happen for a reason.

These are the final things that I have to submit:

1. Developmental Sketchbook

2. Technical File (showing samples of experimentation with fabric treatments AND images from magazine showing how each technique can be applied on garments AND costing sheet for each garment)

3. Portfolio (moodboard, illustration, final product, photoshoot, and spec drawings)

4. Customer Profile report and Market Research report

+ PowerPoint Presentation on the process of making the garment - which going to be held tomorrow

Quite a lot, huh?
