Architecture is Tiring

Have you ever felt so sooo tired and you wish to have longer rest? 

 Well, you know what. Most of the time longer rest does not apply to architecture students. I had a presentation this morning. It's supposed to start off at 9 am sharp, but we came in 2o minutes later. Not because we wanted to be late, but because we had to. Well, 'had to' can't be used too sebab suka buat kerja last minute (^_^)

Being in architecture means that you have to be physically and mentally fit. Seriously, no kidding. Why? Because usually, most architecture students would have to work extra hour. When other students sleeps at 11 and watch movies in the computer, we on the other hand can only sleep at 6 am in the morning and wake up again at 10 am on the same day. How tiring does it sound? 

Very tiring

So, imagine having your sleep for less than 5 hour per day, continuously for a week. Even cars can break down from a non-stop travel, what more a body. 

Bila badan mula letih, presentation pun akan jadi meletihkan juga especially bila kena hentam teruk-teruk dengan panel. In this case, you have to be mentally fit. Tapi kadang-kadang ada juga yang kurang semangat akan menangis menyalahkan nasib sendiri. Hohoho..I've seen a few so far.

Letih okay. You work your butt out, tapi in the end your panel says its rubbish, or some even say things like "I think you should fail". 

Oh god, its painfully annoying. 

When I hear harsh comments from the panels, I kind of wonder how they were like when they were young. I mean come on, were they so good during their studies that they can actually allow themselves to harshly comments on other people's work? 

I hope if I ever become a panel one day I can be the one who is able to motivate others. Not everyone who takes up architecture are gifted in drawing skills. Some forced every ideas out of their brain, trying so badly to keep up with the gifted ones. And my oh my, sungguh sakit hati apabila kerja kita tidak dihargai. 

So, I feel that instead of torturing the not-so-gifted-ones, why can't they say something better, something motivated to keep the weak ones 'alive'. At least it can make them to work harder and to better understand their flaws.

I'm still feeling tired over the sleepless nights I had, so I'm going to go back to bed now and I'll see you soon..
