:: Running Out of Time - Week Six ::

Thursday, May 1, 2008


What a week it has been. The clock seems to be ticking faster than ever for me. I must say that I am a little slower than my planning in the schedule for my project. It seems that something here and there always gets in the way. When I say I'm running out of time, it literally refer to my documentation. Although I have been working on it from time to time, it is also hard to follow the plan accordingly as I always have modification here and there. In addition, the story boards part is a major headache for me indeed. I manage to do a complete set of the story boarding for my application part, but my only concern is the story boards for my videos. There will be several videos I'll include in my project. Therefore, it's quite a bit of work portion I've got to work on.

I'll be going down to Singapore sometime next week to shoot videos, collect my required resources, snap pictures as well as collecting my permission letters and all the necessary documents to be included in my documentation. Communicating through the e-mails can be troublesome at times. Ideas may be interpreted differently under different circumstances. I've also come to a realization that coming up with something for a real company as my final year project is difficult. Although the experience will be valueable, but there are a lot of limitations that draws a line to your ideas. Comapny may want you to be creative and suggestive, but when it come to relating it back to school, there are still rules and guidelines you have to follow.

Truthfully, I find it really challenging for me to complete the documentation portion way earlier than my system especially when you are working on something for a real company. However, that's just a fact that I'll have to face and deal with. Hopefully, I'll be super productive when I'm in Singapore so that I will be back on track. In the meantime, I want to wish everyone the best of luck for their project. I know that most of us have work really hard for it. Let's pray that our effort will be rewarded with good grades.
