19th April - Faces

First time I was early for class! Bwaha! Today in class we had to do some traditional artsy stuff. By that, I mean use an easel and regular, boring wood pencils. Joining lines, memorizing details in 10 seconds, drawing without looking at the paper. Totally out of my element. I thought this course would be smooth sailing, I totally didn't expect something like this coming out. Outside of the realm I can see, and having to use blocks of graphite over my trusty mechanical, I guess I was at the same pace as the rest of the class, and it was surprisingly comforting XD Me and Melvin paired up, and we were supposed to draw dots on the page, so that we would join them randomly in lines later. I dotted out a penis on his, and when we switched back, I found he had dotted a penis on mine too HAHAHA

After class, I met up with my group to do the project work after school. Me and Jun Cheng being in the same team, I suppose we felt the need to overachieve. I drew sprites real quite, and bits of background to piece together. And Jun Cheng went to animate it (albeit quite stupidly, using frame by frame over motion tweening, but Liana seemed to enjoy controlling the Powerpoint this way, so I suppose it's fine). It's amazing how little pressure I felt. Whoo, ITE has done wonders for me. Had I jumped into this course straight from Secondary School, I may have a felt slightly more than a little overwhelmed, I reckon. But it's only going to get harder from here.

Me and Gillian have been chatting a lot lately. Nice gal, I managed to convince her to play S4 League over GunZ. WAHAHA YESSS. Throwing a lot of passive-aggressive arguments back and forth. Why she added me on Facebook and chats with me over other guys in her class leaves me quite suspect, it might be because she wants advice on how to approach her eye candy. Is this because I look like a girl now, with my long hair? Liana's also really chill with me too. Both her and Syai mention how pretty I am, and they're comfortable with talking girl talk in my presence. I'm not sure whether to be disturbed I'm now pretty much considered a female or just to be happy I'm finally able to speak with girls on a decent level.
