New York and Hong Kong

Okay, I know sometimes I just think too much....but I thinking if I got a chance to go one of these 2 places it might a good thing for me as well. Both of these places got a lot of opportunities for designers and artist (according what I know). Just like Singapore, there is a big chance to experience with big brands through agency available over there. Even if I only able to get in an ordinary agency, but the currency make me earn more (at least) and it is definitely a new world for me. It is just an initial thought.

O&M needs crazy talents!!! (CO17)


This article remind me that I been to their agency during a class trip. The agency it self and the staff is pretty motivating. As fresh grad, if I get a chance to work in agency like Ogilvy & Mather (O&M) it might be a very good experience for me. Again....I got one of the talent management executive contact...hehehehe...when my port folio is ready I might consider to send it

Graphic Designer to Website Designer (CO16)

Since website nowadays is so important, I am thinking to learn website design to add on my skill ability in design and advertising field...I know nothing about website design right now.

This website that say something about my situation;
http://www.allgraphicdesign.com/graphicsblog/2007/07/03/how-to-transition-from-graphic-designer-to-web-designer/

Never hear any design interest from me? (CO15)

Hahahaah, of course I love to design!!!! May be it become a part of me and everyone here already and that's why I feel nothing too special to discuss this here.
Since this might be the last entry of the whole semester, let’s end it with what we love!!!
Well, I actually have some experience as a graphic designer (so called) in a small agency. Although the experience is not really great but at least I learn from there. Losing my direction sometimes, I think most of us here are same. But the thing here is designing is the basic skill I have…because of that I can expand my interest to advertising, photography, videography, etc etc.

There I will seriously consider graphic designer as my job after I graduate.

Videography??? (CO14)

I actually kinda interested in videography, but I don't have a chance to learn it la...I like the feeling of bringing the feeling through motion and sound to audience. It is another experience compare to photography of delivering thoughts, feeling and messages.
Plus learning one more skill definitely help me in the future in the industry of advertising.

Rebranding Mamak Stall (CO13)

Some of us craze about Japanese food, some of us Western, some of us Italian, some of us most of the food. But we spend most of our time at mamak stall, which is offering local food.
I see a big potential of mamak stall in Malaysia can bring to international market long time ago. How it works? Just look at these restaurant from Hong Kong, they call it 'Cha Chan Teng' it is Hong Kong version of mamak stall. My sis told me, she saw some people selling roti canai and teh tarik in Korea, these Korean was so so so so so impresssssss with the teh tarik show and making roti canai process....
Why not repackage it and bring our mamak stall into next level? I got the proposal if anyone interested.

What if Charles is a teacher....(CO12)

Do you know Charles actually love to share so much??? (not money)

hmmm.....that was my plan right now when I feel want to settle down and I don't wanna to ‘piah’ (in Hokkien means work hard…any way Im not a Hokkien). In another word is when I am old. This definitely cant be my first job after I graduate.
