Rest?

"AND THERE'S A MILLION THINGS I HAVEN'T DONE BUT JUST YOU WAIT, JUST YOU WAIT" - ALEXANDER HAMILTON; "HAMILTON: AN AMERICAN MUSICAL" So, I've been doing school works ever since the term started. Thesis defense term and a few more projects and assignments in the works. I know I only have two school days, I haven't actually been resting well lately. Though, yes, I oversleep sometimes- I always wake up tired. I almost always stay in bed an hour or even two once I wake up because I know I'll have to spend the entire day working on school works. Heck, I'm even starting other school works rather than my thesis because I know I'll spend another 12 hours figuring out how to do this one feature we have.  Anyway, venting end. I know sometimes we need to sacrifice ourselves for academics, work, etc. But we need rest, too. What I'm aiming as rest is finishing everything I need to do as quick (and decent) as possible and resting once I ...

Together

"I CAN SMILE BECAUSE WE'RE TOGETHER  I CAN CRY BECAUSE IT'S YOU  SO WHAT CAN'T I DO?"  - Smile Flower; SEVENTEEN ( 세븐틴 ) I remember on my first week in iACADEMY, I met two people in my block- my seatmates. At first I thought that they'll be my first friends! We'll eat lunch together, laugh together, all that jazz. But they weren't- Though, they were really nice people, I guess we just didn't really  'connect'.  I was alone most of the time during the first week. Breaks were lonely, groupworks seemed stressful, introductions were awkward. Until I grew the guts to talk to one of my classmates. I guess it started there.  Our block for our first term was a mix of students from all the courses in the School of Computing: Web Development, Software Engineering and Game Development. It was fun just laughing and joking around with them. Spending time with them was great, but we eventually separated according to our courses the next term. I ...

"THERE ARE MILLIONS OF POSSIBILITIES IN THE FUTURE. BUT IT'S UP TO YOU WHICH BECOMES REALITY." - Garnet; Steven Universe I've been studying in iACADEMY for three years now and it's honestly a great school. I've learned a lot, they choose their professors who actually work in the field that they teach in and it surprises me every time I hear a new professor saying that they work as an application developer, as a graphic designer in TV stations even as a director of a movie! He promoted the movie he co-directed during our class and it was so cool. I love how passionate (some) professors are. Like you can really see how much they want their students to learn and how much they want to teach it. They're enjoying teaching, you can see a smile plastered on their face sometimes, or they're serious while they're teaching. You can notice how much they're explaining, even if they're stuck in one part of the lesson- they just want you to lea...

Where It Started

"DO WHAT YOU DO  DO WHAT MAKES YOU UNIQUE  DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY"  - Sean McLoughlin (Jacksepticeye)       I first found out about iACADEMY through a friend, an animation student. She told me how care-free it was and she could really feel the passion in the school. I asked my parents if I could at least try to take an entrance exam there alongside with other schools. The day I went to iACADEMY, there was an Open House event. So I went around with other applying students and our guide and whatever I felt about iACADEMY grew in each floor, each room I saw. Students who were expressing themselves with their hair color, their clothes, tattoos; Floors and rooms filled with the students' works. I remember seeing their computer labs filled with WACOM tablets, their lightbox room, the floor I used to call their "fashion design floor" because of the sewing machines and the mannequins and many other floors- They're just filled with passion. Right...
