Last Stop of Doulos

*Note: this is a backdated post* I wrote this few months back but only managed to post this recently

During last December, my dear and I went to Singapore to attend my cousin's wedding. It was the first ever wedding in the family. After the wedding on the following day, we went to Vivocity and coincidently Doulos Ship was there. Well, I didn't know much about Doulos until I googled about it.

Christmas was around the corner

Doulos was the world's oldest passenger ship built in 1914. (two years after the Titanic sank) Serving in four different roles ie.cruise liner, migrant carrier, cargo ship and even a floating book fair. This ship has visited over 100 countries and welcomed more than 20 million visitors on board. *Oh I See!*

And Doulos has been rebuilt twice

Apparently Singapore was the last stop for Doulos after its many years of service. Therefore we got the chance to visit this historical ship before it was handed over to the new owner.

Vivocity is located next to Harbour Front Cruise Terminal and there was a SuperStar Vigro stopping on that day. I've been to a cruise once (Star Aquarius) when I was young and since then I loved it! That explains why I love the movie Titanic so much. 

I'm gonna ride on you one day

End of Semester

IT looks like I only blog once every semester. Yes, the sem has finally come to the end! I've just submitted my studio work and the topical study report which took me two semester to complete.

Hard cover bound report. Satisfaction! =)

Basically for this topical study report we had to study and to do a research on a topic we picked related to our course. Well for me, this is the topic that I chose:

It is something like a thesis report. As for this I'm already suffer enough cuz I don't like to write reports. How la I'm gonna survive my thesis year next sem.

One copy for the lecturer and the other for my supervisor, Dr Zin

Nevertheless, I'm glad its all over!

Then we have our studio work. This semester we are in the urban unit therefore it covers a larger scale and context compare to the previous ones. My given site is in Ringlet, Cameron Highlands (where we visited there early of the semester to do our site analysis) and for the final project I'm doing a market place at the particular site.

The results/hardwork/outcome:

My market of many shops

Happy New Year

HAPPY new year everyone! Happy Chinese New Year and Happy Valentine's Day as well! Gosh, somebody please pass me a Shieldtox cuz this blog is inhabiting with spiders and webs. Too long never update already. The numbers of visitor has been dropping and there is something I must do about it. Else, my nuffnang money won't come in *ehem*

Just kidding. =p 

All the grown up cousins. Happy CNY!

 Going house visit in hometown

Anyway, lately I've been lazy to blog. But I'm still catching up with others' blog. Most of the updates, photos are being posted up in facebook already. This explain the lack of my updated post.

Just wanna share with you guys that one of my resolution for this year is to have a healthy lifestyle. Ehem.. Architecture students are having inconsistancy sleeping hour and meal time sometimes. We do not have the chance to sleep even during the submission week.

So after one semester of delaying our 'healthy' plan, Jenny, Joseph, Choon Wan, Ning and I have finally decided to sign up for a gym trial package in Danga City Mall. Clark Hatch was having its road show few weeks ago and it is only RM50 for a month, for an UNLIMITED access!!!

So why not?

What's more, there are even schedule like funrobics, yoga, pilate, hip-hop classes which we can join anytime we want. Therefore we were thinking to start our gym right after the Chinese New Year break.

Hopefully with this, I don't have any reasons for being lazy to exercise =p

End of Semester Break

TOMORROW I'll be heading back to Johor with Choon Wah. Some checklists:

Change of new absorbers?

CHECK!

Change of new exhaust pipe?

Air con?

New coat of paint?

The holiday seems to end so fast. Out of the four weeks break, two weeks was spent on the Borneo trip, one week helping dad in office, and another week staying at home rotting. That is how I spent my holiday basically. It's time for a new semester and new subjects and new studio and new lecturer but old UTM wtf.

Journey begins again

There is one thing I still miss though.

The Christmas shopping and sales in KL =(
