this is one of the craziest sem i ever had. today while on the bus, i pondered and realised, this is the sem which kinda really taught me alot of new things. from totally new stuff to being reasonably okay with them. like knowing nuts about camera/photography, and now knowing at least all the basics and techniques. from knowing nothing about business/marketing etc, at least know i know whats the 4Ps and marketing mix etc.


i've really learnt alot.


and one of the most fulfilling modules is new media! photography. i had such fun in the class. though alot of times i felt SO discouraged and depressed cos i was really bad at taking pictures, but i must admit photography did teach me alot. from seeing things in a different angle and i've learnt to appreciate alot of things in real life.

now whenever i'm out and see a picture-perfect spot or a nice angle, i'll have the itch to immediately take that photo. and how one period of time, my whole mind was filled with 'perspective, shallow DOF, greater DOF, aperture etc etc' EVERYWHERE i go. take note of my surroundings and all.

and coming from me, i thought i wouldnt be that kind who'll say photography is cool. but after 20 weeks, i daresay that its one of the most touching form of communications out there. now, i've learnt how to appreciate stunning pictures, know how to value unique pictures cos people always see things from the camera's view, but not how it was taken. cos no one really knows what kinda difficulties the photographer has to go through.

seriously. now really pretty pictures blow me away even more. haha.

and so. we wrapped up our new media on tues :)


we also wrapped up our marketing today. it was one hell of a module. because it is the first ever business module we ever took. and alot of things, we were not used to it and not exposed to before.

so for today's presentation, well we didnt really prepare well. but it was okay.. learning experience. :)

and coming from me as well, i think marketing is cool! and evil in a way. cos its there everywhere and anywhere and you just fall into its traphole without knowing how and why. lol. and i think marketing is pretty exciting cos it challenges the boundaries and forces you to think out of the box. to express your creativity, and just to create.

its exciting to live in such times because now people are learning not to put boundaries on creativity and its so liberating. and exciting to see what people can come up with :)

so we'll wrap up presentation skills tmr, and on friday, globalization and intepretation.

jiayou!
