So, my reason for not being able to blog the last entire week was due to the fact that I had eye surgery. Yes, eye surgery. I had a small lump in my eyelid referred to as a chalazion which is actually somewhat a cyst/fat tissue on the eyelid. It can or can not be a serious problem, however, in my case I think it kind of was. Just as long something in your eye bothers you, get it checked [...]


I never ever knew that almost every shop uses blogs! I was just looking through some of my favorite fashion blogs again today and I decided to click on some of the links they have of other shops/online stores. In the first link I clicked on, they had blogs about what they have done, events and stuff like that. Even the process of their designs and what type of material they use and more. I was amazed that an online [...]


So, I was just trying to study for my politics exam on Monday and decided to Google some points up. And I came across this uber cute front page on Google! Have you seen it? It’s super cute! Here are some snapshots of it! It’s super cute, yeah? You can click the buttons under them to control them as well – creating a sense of experience and engagement as well (even though it’s just the front of a website). Below [...]


One Girl – that’s all it takes. Just one for one. Will you be that one to give?  From yesterday, I am now very fortunate as to be a part of this campaign by One Girl: Do it in a Dress. It is about you. What YOU can do for others, especially those girls in  Sierra Leone. Do it in a dress is a great way for 1) having fun 2) supporting a great cause 3) sending a girl back [...]


I think I have never blogged so much in my entire life! Don’t get me wrong, I love it! And it’s really beginning to grow onto me. Currently, I have 34 posts and 5 very supportive and encouraging comments from strangers I do not know (which makes me ecstatic to see that people are reading my blog!!). Thank you all for commenting! Anyways, I came across this video on Youtube  today and found it tremendously interesting. Check it out: Shift [...]


Today, Joseph and I worked on our first draft for our HTML essay. Instead of drawing like the last time, we just made notes of the pages we plan to make for our HTML essay. Here are the pages: Home/Front Page City Street Cinema Comics Video Games Technology The Brain: processing The Brain: Attention Span How do you process this? The Future: landscape (clicks to build the landscape) Background on Manovich I think we had some pretty cool ideas as [...]


In my first blog entry in week 4, a set of criteria were set up to mark myself on how well or badly I’m working on my blog. Here is the list: ♥ I must write in my blog regularly – never no entries – 3-4 entries a week! I think I have been doing this pretty well for my weekly entries. I have always written no less than 3 blog entries and have been writing things regarding the lecture, [...]


I found this picture very appealing when I was reading up on Information Architecture (IA). It actually states out the main important points and ideas used. So I thought I’d share it with everyone of you What is IA? Thoughtful Presentation - It IS a thoughtful presentation, isn’t it? You do think and plan it out really thoroughly for presentation! Site & Page Structure - Yes, it most definitely is. The planning and the organising of structuring the pages/site is one of [...]


Today, while reading and finding out more on websites and what best suits for our theme/idea: spatial montage, I came to learn that there are a few things to keep in mind when creating a website. This particular website or blog (I think it was a blog), actually did the wall visualisation thing as well. And I realised that doing one is a great way to actually see and make clear what is in your head so that it’ll be [...]


After finishing off my previous post on Wall Visualisation and the whole idea of Spatial Montage (just scroll down to the next post to see it!), I started preparing for dinner. My brother wanted steak and I decided to Google some nice fancy recipes for steaks This was the steak I cooked today:   PS: this is NOT my picture. It’s the website/blog I got it from! (but it really does look like the same thing once I finished. Except [...]
