Catching Up

Yikes. It's been a while since I've been here. School drained all my energy and it took me 2 weeks of my break to recover. So, WELCOME TO 2013! May the new year bring happiness and prosperity!

Since I don't have many New Year resolutions, I'm just going to go over events in the last months of 2012 that I wanted to blab about but didn't have a chance to.

October
The only memorable part of October for me, I think, was Halloween. Everyone was busy with their projects at school, but most of us brought candy in to share. I probably stole more than I shared. Look, I even dressed up my penguin! (I dressed up as a werewolf, but because it wasn't a full moon that day...hehe ^-^)

November
Nothing much happened. Didn't celebrate Thanksgiving, nor did I get anything during Black Friday. But I did watch Wreck-It Ralph. It's an okay movie, but wasn't worth my money. Best part was when you see all the "bad" characters of the games and try to name them all.

December
My dreaded final was due. A design of a library in Hayes Valley of San Francisco. Since it was due a week before my other finals, it was actually quite worry free. In the end, I got lazier and lazier. My drawings weren't as good as they were during the mid-review, and my model was half finished and looked like crap. The only good thing is the 3D rendering, which I'll share with you guys.

When seen from 5 ft away, it actually looks real :)

There was also the TVB awards in December. If I remember correctly, it was a lot later than previous years. As for the winners, most of them were deserving. Mandy Wong was the only strong contender in the Most Improved, and I loved how she thanked her "hubby" Oscar Leung and "cousin" Chin Ka Lok. As for Wayne Lai, he's a good actor, but not that great that he could win Best Actor 3 times in the last 5 years. It's not Wayne's fault, TVB just has crappy actors. Can't wait for the new generation like Oscar Leung, Benjamin Yuen, and Vincent Wong to take over. I was quite sad that Charmaine Sheh didn't win Best Actress for her role in When Heaven Burns. But I guess WHB winning Best Drama makes up for it. It really was the best drama, it had a good story(something TVB really lacks nowadays), a wonderful cast of actors and actresses, and awesome theme songs.

And that wraps the most memorable parts of the last few months of 2012. It was such a great year, as great as the years before.

PENGUIN WAVES BYEEEEE
