(emotions filled day, lots of reflection and thoughts, skip if you want to avoid wordy words or risk of ...)
My dearest 1m ,
Surprise to see my posting after so long? This might be the last time which I will be posting,
The day has come for us to bid farewell, as classmate but not sch mate, as we progress to year 2.
Do you still remember the guy who came in looking lost , bump into David Koh's Graphic design class and after introducing himself, he told David that he belongs to 1m ( and he said M is for =Monkey !) and as usual being "suan" by David Koh's library of sarcastic formula ... Feeling "SABRO", he walk up and was warmly welcome by the group of monkey , leon , zhi fong , gavin , din and chevy ..etc In the end he realize he was in the wrong class !!!
Do you still remember during the days in sem 1, when you need to check anything photography such as camera model,stock,spec,PRICING and you approach yr friendly "Camera Shop Salesman"(eh i am not a salesman hor!) in class during sheldon tay class and ask for opinion and even discount? And the irritating big camera walking around class taking photographs ?
And those times we spend together work,eat,play,
.........sleep(u know who u are...)
Lots of thoughts and images flash back when I was sleeping before presentation day, moments of my life in 1M be it sweet or bittle bits all comes to life. Let me share with you some of my experiences during this period of time whereby I'm unable to go school and live the usual way.
The journey was very bumpy for me during sem 2 and I was totally thrown out of the way I used to live my life, for the less 2 months I have been homeless and most of the time working on the ISP project outside, under void deck , library ,mac...etc and sometime I would even sleep on the location itself in the middle of the night just to be able to catch the golden moment of the first light in time . Countless of fail attempt due to bad weather but that doesn't deter me from getting the perfect shot done the way I want it to.
The final day has come, I am sure everyone tried their best in their work and is proud of it. I was really very surprise when my name are called, I would say I was lucky to be appreciated by the lecturers and was really surprised when they say my works is selected to participate in this year Crowbar Awards. I was also really glad and proud to see Brandon being selected as well, it brings back the days of memories whereby when he just started photography and he was always with me when I am out shooting, sharing my experiences with him. I was really happy to see his growth in his photography skill.
I have nothing expensive to give to everyone but all the photographs taken during this entire year. I hope that all the beautiful memories has been captured and will be well preserved for the years to come and when you look back at all the photos later in life, it will put a smile on yr face which brings back fond memories.
Take care 1M, there will always be a foot print left by each of you in my life. Thank you for being involved.
love~Clement
