Oh wow! So much? I'm in semester 2 foundation. I have a few classmates who quit although they didn't do badly but they simply can't handle the stress, a few who have to be a semester behind cos they failed some subjects and some who changed course. :/
*
Yea,ours was the most DRAMATIC batch=) alot of ppl from my batch quit becuase they can't take it. i'm not sure about you now, but last time,we were required to hand in 5 pieces of figure drawing per week=) FULL SHADE..hahah,i'm sure you know what i mean. Then again, there are some who quit halfway because the fees were just getting abit too expensive. I nearly quit too because of financial problems, but managed to pull through somehow. Honestly, thinking back, it's not really that hard to do the coursework. It only starts getting stressful when you start piling up your workload and leave everything to the last minute..so yea, do your figures tongue.gif one figure drawing a day ain't going to kill you..hahah

Speaking about figures, I am doing now. But from 4 per week, now it's 2 per week with outlines. As we are in semester 2, we have to draw 4 nudes and 4 imaginary ones. And yes, I'm piling up my work, so it means no sleep tonight cos I sucks in figure
*
Wah lao, u summore can chat online here while doing figures?haha, yea..i agree tonight is going to be a late night. So what major are you planning on doing?

QUOTE(LZ Zach @ Nov 9 2010, 07:52 PM)
I really owe you guys a thanks for replying my question! biggrin.gif

Wow, seeing you guys' comments about your sheer hard work, it must be seriously dreadful to pull through just to do some figures? I think it's time for me to brush it up before college @_@!
*
Well, wouldnt be a bad thing to start practicing. Would really help alot when you cultivate a habit of working on your figure drawings..

omg..u making me scared now..haha..i hope i don fail any subs..*touch wood* but at least i submit ALL the assignments la..
my sem now is 4figures per week with full shading..aiks..next sem gonna same with sueanne d.. cry.gif  icon_question.gif
i really hope i can enter major asap..although its harder than foundation but at least i no need to face with my pencil sets everyday! haha
its really stressful..every sub in every week have a FEW assignments..so u cant relax/rest..unless u realy do things very fast..for beginners,usuallly we take a longer time to complete assignments..therefore, everyday assignments..try to rest one day and pile up ur assignments and u are dead.. shakehead.gif
p/s:since the day i enter TOA, max 5hours of sleeping time..yest 1hour.."AWESOME!"
*
Aih, i'm telling you, no matter you major already or going to graduate, you'll be dreaming of holding that grubby 2Bs, 3Bs or even 4Bs pencils. Cause it's going to be a norm that you'll be drawing WEEK after WWEEKK up until the day you graduate..well, just enjoy it while you can. Besides, drawing is what makes us special compared to the other art colleges around=)

yes. our degree started off with 60+ people. after foundation year, there's only left 30+ standing.

half of the people , GONE.
scary eh.
new sem is here. and we have to make our choice. @.@

illustration pathway, or graphic pathway.
handmade book or packaging design.

Well, if you ask me..the one that can really give you loads of headway to expand in the near future would be advertising or multimedia. Take it from someone who is in the industry=)

QUOTE(sueannee @ Nov 10 2010, 05:09 PM)
Hmm.. I have 2 shadings. 2 form studies. 4 nudes full body. 4 imagination full body. Sometimes, we have to draw manikin in class exercise and if we can't finish must take picture and bring home finish it.  hmm.gif
*
haha, at least you have the luxury of TAKING a picture and bringing it home to finish. Back in my days, we're still shooting with film camera leh. No such thing as digital cameras and all so it's abit susah la.. heck, even handphones also no color screen and camera like you all have today=) so consider your generation much much lucky..

yes, we have to carve bamboo and also the pencil. it has to be slim and broad. i had difficulty in cutting them. Gabriel is teaching us. The guy from Switzrland. Cute but evil. LOL

Dying cos no one knows today is submission. So everyone started tracing only last night and some of the letters are still undesigned. Ended up I need to refine my work cos some of the letters are not neat. XD
*
Gabriel?must be new la..haha, waitaminute...i thought you girls like BAD EVIL guys? As the chinese saying goes, 'Nan Ren Bu Huai, Ni Ren Bu Ai'

OMG,wats happened to your class??how can no person in class not now its submission day? Hope you all have been keeping up with class as the fees arent cheap there. TSK TSK mad.gif actually, i was abit like you guys also last time. Always go play CS with classmates also til forget bout submission and exams. But twice only i miss submissions..

Yeah but not in the form of assignment and studies. LOL. He's still a cute Swiss though. XD

And it was public holiday the day before and he only tell my class rep it was due that week the day before or I don't know but my class rep told us ONLY the day before. So we rushed. Pfftt. And now design is a pain in the ass. Maximalism ftw.
*
Sure or not? Must be your class rep 'SABO' you all la. Hope you guys managed to finish it in time. If not, CUT MARKS..or the standard threat of lecturers 'YOU WILL NOT GRADUATE IF YOU DON'T HAND UP' sweat.gif
