Choosing a Thesis Topic

My thesis topic? FASHION.

Why? As I once wrote about myself:

“I believe the creativity I possess (how little it may be) is not only limited to the designing of the built environment. Rapidly, a creative passion for all things wearable is developing inside me. Like most girls, I love dressing up. Putting together outfits and experimenting with clothes are things I enjoy so much.”

The Sweet Life

I am ever so guilty for being an negligent blogger. If you are in the Architecture field and you work in an office for more than 10 hours a day, I’ll be amazed if you can afford to blog daily. Okay, so I’m rationalizing. I’m sure there are architecture-inclined people out there who make time to blog. The sad thing is, sometimes I don’t. To compensate, I will try to do more quality posts. Quality over quantity, yes? I hope this will be worth your while. đŸ™‚

Architectural Thesis Rendering

So you have a design. Your vision on how you want to present it has a direction. You fairly know how to do your 3d model and you know how that render button works. What’s lacking? Maybe some extra oomph? Plus, added visualization and better execution wouldn’t hurt too. I think I know what you need!

Twenty Second 1.0: JAN 2013

January was a great, great month! You could tell by my lack of social network participation the past 3 weeks. I was so loaded with work that I didn’t even have time to breathe.. and sleep! Hey, I’m not being sarcastic here. It was a great month, really. Who wouldn’t agree that work is a blessing? Repeat after me, WORK IS A BLESSING. Haha.

In between long overtime hours in the office, one on top of the other freelance works (which I will blog about soon) and more of those long overtime hours in the office, I’m so proud to say I was able to squeeze in a photo shoot for my twenty second birthday. Yes, I just got older last January 31 (remember the date!) and I couldn’t be happier with the turn of events… and outcome of the photos, if I may add.
