It is almost a month of studying in UIA, and so far, everything's fine. The real life as an architecture student has begun and no doubt I was struggling and doing my best to adapt to the new environment and surrounding. Well, there's not much differences between life in UIA and life in CFS, except the classes are a little bit farther fromthe mahallah and the assignments so far were much, well, tougher.
Our first design project was about designing a new facade for three shops. It was kinda challenging because we had to build 3D facade on an A0 board. That's like 8 pieces of drawing papers glued together.
Our initial idea was rejected and it took us the whole day to come up with new designs and several sketches. Not to mention about the stress and how I felt really blue for the rest of the day. We faced difficulties, hardships and the situation between us got a little bit strain. Luckily, our final design was accepted on Tuesday, around 12.30 am in Studio 6 by Sir Azrizal. And that was a huge relief. Then, it took us about two days and one sleepless night to complete the whole facade. It reminded me of how I used to stay up the whole in CFS to complete my projects.
The submission day was on Friday at 10 am. Our model was a bit smaller than other's and well, wasn't as pretty as other's but we were proud of it. We gave a great effort to finish it. It may not be the best work around but we certainly have done our best to build the facade.
And to our great surprise, Prof Aziah kinda liked it and we got good reviews as well as a big applause from her. It just shows that along with every difficulties, there will always be ease. And along with hard work, efforts and doa, insya-allah, Allah will help us. Alhamdulillah, praise to the Lord.
But it's not the time for us to be over the moon because it's only the first project. There's a long journey ahead us the the hardship doesn't stop here. In the future, greater obstacles await us. I wish I can do better next time. I wish we all can perform better for the next project.
Well, that's all for now. Cheerio mates.
the color yellow somehow reminds me of someone ....
