END year 1 sem 1

i am done.
D.O.N.E
with archi sem 1

handed in my last piece o hw (10 sketches) this afternoon.
it was a total FAILURE.
i did not try at all.
but i didn't care, i just want to END IT.

will work harder next sem =)
*praying to pass all my subs*

culture project 2—tempietto san pietro

ok, so maybe i'm p***ed off about this project.
i don't understand why there was only one member present at 11am for the 9am meeting
or how some people could go off/ didn’t appear at all when the only girl in the group worked on the model till 1am (yes i'm biased about the girl/boy thing, so what?)
or letting 2 people who was buried under hw spend one saturday fixing the model for photo-shooting

 

*calming down*

 

anyways
thanks to my group members for a "not bad" project =)
teik, afif, weng, michael, tommy, rick, feridson and ali..
i appreciate the effort you put in.

still
although credit for the project & model belongs to all
i claim 60% of the rights to the final pics (teik and adnan can share 40% XP)
not tht they'r any good =.="

base-- weng & teik
 
columns-- master afif (superb crafting!)
 
entablature + railing-- mine^^ (only pic o me for d whole process ><)
 
inner walls-- tommy
 
dome-- teik

top statue + cross-- feridson, teik

courtyard walls-- rick
 
last min touch-ups-- michael, teik and i

90% of this was remade-- due to miscalculations and the wind *my model flew away, teacher. no, it's true! seriously=.=”)

final
 

night view

"in heaven" view

"sister" model-- hagia sofia

took this with one hand holding cammy and the other holding an A2 black board

d sunrise we saw on the bus.

 
snoozing
gosh was i stiff after d midnight bus ride..

no pics o snorkeling but you can imagine how it would be 

clear blue water/sky
fishes and corals just under your feet
drinking gallons o salt water
and fighting d current
i'd b back for more.

the site survey

 

the midnight walk on the beach.
the feeling o walking in semi-darkness with the
sea on one side, friends on the other
sand under my feet and starry sky over my head.
awesome^^

and then there's the sunrise we got up at 530am to see.
guess wht? it finally rose at 730am =.="

of course
not forgetting

my beloved
as always ;)

one last look at where we spent

a whole 30 hours sketching
most o d time in between playing beach volley
swimming in d sea
walking on d beach
getting to know more about my coursemates o (then) 2 months
and best of all
a breather of one night from all things architecture.
