EYe of Da StOrM

I was at Mardi Gras on Sat down in Sydney...it was extremely interesting but also sadly distressing to see half-naked 50 year old women walking around on floats that screamed "Chingay!" but with all the gay and lesbian personnel involved with their "IKEA supports Homsexual Rights at Work" slogans. HAve u heard of this group called "gaycatholics australia" or "The Episcopal Church of New South Wales " supporting homosexual Christians? apparently gays and lesbians are also Christians n have been tryin to gain recognition from the church for some time.."Jesus loves Gays and Accepts them for Who They Are"....i dunno man..there's plenty of debate on homosexuality in the church n outside e church but little on e status of such christian she-brother/he-sister individuals..

after that, i came back to University Life..Real Deal Boring..submissions this fri on (of all things) Dog Kennel Design...its not just e design but evrything from the choice of materials to the detailed structural supports for e walls n roof..then there was e site visit to Tocal Homestead to draw/sketch 'vernacular architecture' aka farm buildings with life sheep n cows..not 2 mention their sh*T! its very high-key n hands-on in Newcastle Architecture...no slack pace with many assignment deadlines on e same day but given out earlier /later..the learnin curve has been steep i tell ya..from simple elevation the 1st week to dog kennel design in week 2 n now Architectural Description and Analysis Drawings of farms in the 3rd..

one day i'll get round 2 writtin bout just wat it is dat these dumb blokes called Architecture students do n why they're up so late every nite..i sorry to u guys if i've not been on msn much..e uni connection is atrocious n they seem to have banned msn on e network...ang mos...n then e assignment hav just kept comin n comin..i've been tryin to speak the 'architectural language' of trusses n arches n spaces...but am like e babe b4 'dada' comes rollin outta dat pie-hole in ma face...

i'm still seein if June is open for mi 2 fly home for 5 weeks..unless there r assignment or SSA Newcastle(S'pore Students Association) wants to organise activities which i'll try helpin out at as a member...(they're darn pathetic here man)...at least FOCUS(Fellowship of Overseas Christian Uni Students) is not so screwed up..i miss Singapore, my frens n bros n prata,laksa,durian,hokkien mee, char kway teaow..u name it...
