32nd DAY

We presented the basic ideas of the plan, still experimenting.

For this stage, just work on it. AutoCAD drawings still need to modify and improve. Mr J Ho suggested us to design a “tetris” staircase as we actually got nothing to detail on.

Oh, what a difficult task, to me.

Days to submission left on 6 days excluding this Friday, I couldn’t imagine what would the rest of the days look like.

After lunch, there was a talk by a Professor.
I spent the 2 hours talk sleeping in the hall. I couldn’t help it with only 3 hours sleep this morning.
After the talk I asked for the lecture note and we had some conversation.
The professor thought that the association of ideas the very important to students, students should be taught to be creative most importantly. Student should be taught of that in school. As that is the selling point for designers. Nowadays, the education of design is more on project base. Most of the time we are rushing for projects, like what the professor said, when they are doing projects, they will absent for tutorial. Tutorial period to her is actually about communicating, we might not need to talk about project, but everything. She thought that the thinking mind and problem solving are being taught through conversation.

Project, sometimes kills students thinking minds, as we need to rush for submissions, and production period actually take more times to do.
Most of the time, I’m rushing, most of the time I was unsure what I was doing for my project. When I try to recall what I have done about the project, I found that I couldn’t remember anything.

Design is supposed to be fun and interesting isn’t it. Yea, it is, but I don’t have much time to enjoy it. Or is 3 years course too short?

After that we went to indoor stadium to play badminton, 2 hours of running, playing badminton. It was fun.
