Farewell... to 3 years of hardship and fun... archi for life!

sigh... the long day/ weekend is finally over... i tell you, working in an archi firm can be pretty stressful... especially when you have to try and please 2 different bosses out from the same project having different ideas and requirements... ugh... but it's still fun.
been trying to upload my pictures from my first project i did here for my industrial training... alas.. the faultiness of dial-ups... just can't wait for broadband to arrive... with fingers crossed... it might be soon. i can say that i'm pretty fortunate to be doing these sort of things during industrial training... lots of designing work... and no draughting and office boy errands for me...
my first project was this high class housing development, set in the lovely small island off the sabah shores... pretty cool eh? i think the client kindda goes with my idea... hopefully it be built and be just what i wanted... then again theres lots of alteration to be done by the seniors... atleast hopefully the aesthetic is there... then it be living proof for my future reference.
currently i've been assign to this new project... its a commercial project set right in between Sabah's currently biggest supermarket... its sort of a commercial/ office building... pretty cool.. but very tight... so hard to squeeze everything into one plot of land... adding to the by-laws we need to follow... for a 1.2 acre land.. they want futsal courts... cineplexes... a food court... retail areas... and offices... not to mention... car parks (the most irritating part in designs..), i had trouble during the first project... carparks as well... everything worked pretty okay... till carparks became a hassle... especially if it where to be incorporated into the building as well... ugh! why dont people jsut walk... Oops... that goes for me too... hehe.

anyway... i think i better go hit the showers... and hit the sack!!
