Glitches
we had another round of review and my presentation was yesterday. was wishfully hoping that my proposal could get through, but everybody was there to be bombarded with questions, not excluding me. i just thought the review should have been earlier considering the amount of retracking we should do. it's 2 weeks before the final review which they will invite external judges from australia and another a local practitioner here. almost everyone's projects must have been trashed out or if ur're lucky, reconsidering taking another project altogether.
i'm supposed to do a social hub for the autistic students of this special school and now i wonder why i am soooo ignorantly wise back then to pick up that challenging topic. luckily my lecturer was encouraging enough to me to carry it through. so the problem with my proposal was that the plan i was proposing would not work for these students.. after so many days of sketchings and cracking my brains on the layout.. haiz...
so now i'm just clueless as to how an autistic person orientate in a space, what do they need? how do they visualise? how would they feel in a certain space? man, i was asking these same questions back then and i assumed the wrong answers.. whatever the answers are, i just have to convince them of my rationale.
enough of the misery, i'm surprised to get my first christmas present from my lecturer. haha. sweet of him. suddenly i just wonder whether ampau or presents are better.
and i'm currently killing the travelling time to and from school reading this engrossing book called "She's Come Undone" which i found on my shelves. someone must have given it to me dulu. and lastly, i just got to know that my weak bladder is caused from the loose joint of my thumb toe, said this makcik urut. wallahu a'lam..
