Uni SA degree program officially launced

Was in college yesterday for the Taylor's/ Uni SA degree program launch. It was quite a big deal I guess with big names from both sides present. The launch was held at the auditorium down in the Annexe. Usual launching stuff la, speech, speech, and more speech...

The highlight for me was the unveiling of the brand new 'media hub', a multimedia studio of sorts catered to communications students. The place formerly known as student services has been converted into a RM1 million canggih work station boasts the latest Apple G5 computers and separate project rooms for advertising and PR students.

The facilities seem promising for now, but in at the end of the day it really depends on the management to maintain and upgrade the facilities to cater the massive amount of students that are expected to enrol in the near future. Judging from the insane capitally driven marketing campaign that Taylor's has been embarking on for the past few months, I foresee a possible lack of resources to cater to ALL communication students, current and future ones as well.

But for now I'm looking forward to doing my degree in multimedia studies and can't wait to try my eager hands on those G5s. I just hope they got a fullproof network set up. Knowing the reliability of Taylor's ICT department, I'm starting to get a bit worried already, coz high speed internet connections are essential for downloading and sending those mega huge video files...

Starting over...

*Sigh* It was very hard to accept but had to be done anyhow. My tagboard account was messing with the HTML codes and this made it impossible for me to make new posts. Was considering giving up the whole blogging thing for good but what the heck, a frest start could do me some good!

Yeah, yeah. So I haven't been updating for a looooong while you say. So sue me, I've been busy. Some ppl have better things to do with their lives than whine and rant bout every single aspect of their lives in cyberspace you know...

Okay, that was a lie. The truth is I got lazy. Which is a perfectly reasonable excuse considering that I'm on my semester break right now. Two frigging months to be exact (YAY~!). So what have I been up to lately? Aside from turning my whole sleep routine upside down and racking up my electricity and internet bills, not much...That plus I had a chance to do a bit of traveling across the east and west coast of M'sia.

But more on that later. For now revel in one of my mad random photo clicking moments. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you my latest masterpiece in urban arts and culture; I call it: "Garbage and more garbage".



Hmm, a dustbin on a dustbin...how much more eco-friendly can you get?
