Finally, we're done with Dunkin Donuts' Advertising assignment after so many weeks of headache and squeezing our brains for ideas, did some surveys and research. Yeah... But, don't be happy so soon. We still have a new assignment to be done. This time, we have to do a festive advertisement wishing everyone Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, by UCSI. The due date is on Monday, and since I can't think of any ideas for now, I'd decided to blog.
Yesterday must be my worst day for this year (I can't say in my life, because something even worst might happen in the future... who knows...) Me and one of my group members, YY, decided to meet and go through our Dunkin Donuts assignment while we have our lunch, and we checked again to see if there is any last minute changes to be made or to correct. After checking, we went to a printing shop to print. YY had to leave early because she had to go for her mid term paper for MOT class.
While printing, the idea of doing a CD cover for our disc flashed through my mind. After printing and paying, I ran home to do it as quick as I could because the dead line was yesterday before 5pm. And that time was already almost 3pm. And in the end, I managed to finish it by 4pm. In a rush, I took the printed proposal, my pen drive, the CD, and a bag of rubbish which I wanted to throw, lock the door and ran down. And then I finally realize that I forgot to take my keys. I was so panic, and I was home alone. I tried to call my tenant but couldn't reach her. I couldn't go into my room and couldn't go out, and I was stuck in the living room. I tried to search around, and fortunately, I found a spare key for the front door gate. Then I ran with all my strength to the printing shop again and printed out the CD cover. In the end, I managed to hand up before 5pm but I was very exhausted because after handing up the assignment, I ran around college to see if I could bump into any of my housemate, but, no luck was on me. I went home and try to open my door by force, but, I still couldn't open it. Then, I went to Giant and look for a locksmith for help, and he managed to open my door after some trials and errors with all sorts of tools of his. He told me that he would charge me RM 50, but he said seeing that I had such a bad day, he just charged me RM 30. I felt relieved but not very happy, because it's like paying someone to break in to your own room. (=.=)
After 'breaking in' to my room, it was already 7pm, and I quickly prepare myself to go to a choir concert organized by the music school of UCSI which will be started by 8.30pm, and Kid was in the choir. The whole thing was just so wonderful. How music heals my soul after such an exhausting, distressing and traumatic event. I like most of the songs, and the only thing I don't like is the part where the Dithyrambic Choir sang Glimpse of Malaysia. The song was wonderful, but their movements were way beyond awkward and terrible. I'd rather see them standing there and sing instead of spoiling the whole thing with those horrible movements and I do not take those as choreography. Again, I could see and hear flashlights of camera, which really annoyed me throughout the concert. I just don't understand why they must turn their flash on. Not only that, the 3 guys who sat at my back, 3 girls who sat in front of me and the two uncle and auntie who sat on my right, they just couldn't shut their F**king mouth. If they think it's boring, they shouldn't have go watch it at the first place. Ish... And I had to bear with them for that 2 hours. The concert ended around 10.30pm. Kid and me went for supper before heading home. That were what befall on me yesterday. Below are the Dunkin Donuts advertisement we made. We are still student, so, don't expect too much... =.= (this assignment certainly has made me being phobic to donuts)
[YY's Design...]
[My breakfast design...]
[My design as well....]
[The CD covers I made which resulted in me forgetting my keys... =.=]
Phew... Yesterday's events were really straining my energy level, and tired, not only physically, but also mentally. Well, I have to continue my brainstorming session for the Christmas Ad. That's all from me for now. See you guys around.
Ps: Remember your keys and check if they are with you all the time. I am sooo going to put a reminder on my door, so that this will not happen to me EVER again. Ciaozzz...
