Proud to be a child of God, a faithful son (I hope lol) a trying to be hardworking student, a part-time worker, a nerf/milsim enthusiast, a crafting and music lover and an awesome friend. to you :) Hope you have an enjoyable time reading about my life, as much as I have fun living it! |

I am a university student who loves chocolate! Coffee is my best buddy when it comes to taking on my finals. I have a tendency to want to try and do so many different things at once and as a result, I've found my hobbies to be as such!
Nerfing is one of them, but aside from that, I also love arts and craft. I have my own startup, Thumbforlego at: where I sell my works!
I love to do all sorts of crafting, so you will see me uploading posts of my leathercrafts, thumbdrives, replica guns, nerf gun modifications and gundam models! I'm fortunate enough to be blessed by really supportive parents and given the chance to explore many, many parts of the world and try out a plethora of activities. This is also how I discovered my love for film photography, videography and piano.
The film photo above is unedited! My family loves cold countries xD. We managed to catch the northern lights twice!
I've also gotten the chance to experience many of nature's wonders
And my most freezing experience to date: riding a husky ski sled into the sunset (It was -38 to -40 degrees celsius and the huskies were pretty fast.)

Why 36000feetabove? This is the altitude that commercial planes cruise at and I have always loved the view up in the sky, being amongst the sea of clouds. :) Personally, my favourite favourite food has got to be airplane buns! Does anyone else feel the same way?! With a slice of butter and looking out of the window, I have yet to find an experience that can beat that.
After tomorrow, before today

GEE gee when was the last time i actually embarked on a project~! whether is it LEGO, or nerf guns, or replica guns, or gundam models. gosh its been ages! well i guess thats because life is getting kinda kinda busy...especially driving! test is gonna be on the fifth of march...and all thanks to my slow-and-relaxed pace for driving lessons, now i find myself doing two lessons back to back on saturday morning! bleaahhhhh but i guess i dont have much of a choice. all i can hope for is that i remember all the stupid rules that i have to follow and pass the driving test on my first attempt!my God, i am actually wearing this huge ass watch now...for my outfield this week! well its just an exercise. but at least we get to wear civilian clothes! timing is of utmost importance. (y) hence, the watch. YEAHHHHHH meh okay okay so apparently, A level results release is gonna be just round the corner soon, and i have begun preparing for all those troublesome admission stuffs again...all the paperwork and this year, i am aiming specifically for SUTD. i really really want to do design and architecture uh. so, i have decided to do a project! (amidst my laziness) i have always wanted to do this LEGO project since 2-3 years ago, but i never got to it due to the lack of resources. lego in singapore is just way too expensive.. and given its sheer size, lots of planning is required! however....SUTD admissions are already OPEN!! which means that i got to really step up and start building. im pretty convinced by myself that i have an absolute lack of lego parts. SIGH. but i dont have a choice. my pocket is getting pretty tight and i have little time left. i have no choice but to make do with whatever i have and hopefully, i can make it into a success! it kinda sucks when you know that your project isnt going to turn out the way you initially hoped it would turn out to be. sheesh i only seem to be facing with such problems for lego. its not like i have such problems with plastic modelling and nerf gun stuffs. In a flustered state, i have decided to embark on this project last night! damn working on this is definitely gonna suck up loads of nights. not to mention, i think i would need to do quite a fair bit of planning in camp...sigh too bad i am only going to bring white a4 paper and a pen into camp. no lego bricks for reference. too troublesome! so...HERE IS THE PROGRESS FOR THIS WEEKEND. bleah i rushed home after fellowshipping with the cell group after church service, and to my horror, the instability of the wingspan was absolutely horrific! as in usually, when building the outline of it, it might be unstable? but when i tried strengthening it, it didnt quite work out! i will tell you more about it later! ![]() OKAY this was the progress for last night...i worked on this for like 4 hours? it was quite a pain in the ass ttrying to strengthen the bottom part of the structure. it wasnt exactly going to look like that, but thats just the outline of it. the only actual building is the middle portion. there is actually A LOT of work under those plates! ![]() not quite obvious huh? still cant quite see what i did underneath, but thats the whole point of it! so for that, kudos to myself for making the integrity of the structure pretty well! ![]() this was taken today. if you notice the front portion has already become elevated, with the front wingspan spreaded out NOT-TOO-NICELY. its supposed to look something like on the right side. but the left side...it fell apart. :( mission failed. so for this evening, i sorta went back to the "drawing board" and redesigned the wing area! ![]() still a WIP...(work in progress) my original design is supposed to make the flying aircraft carrier look like a manta ray. however, the wings are extremely stable since i dont have the required resources to do the necessary strengthening and now, it looks like a chopped up manta ray -.- ![]() overview. i was still working on it at this point. ![]() my beloved republic frigate of which i waited more than a year for the price of it to drop before getting it, had to be sacrificed. :( LOTS OF LEGO SETS HAVE BEEN HARMED IN THE PROCESS. ![]() slowly slowly painstakingly building up the front. i really dont know about the colour combination. i might do some swaps or editing later on perhaps. and yes both sides are not symmetrical. i didnt like the idea of it, for the front at least. ![]() time check when i ended, 5pm, 24 EH? its supposed to be 27th january! DAMIT. LEGO sets that were harmed in the process.... THIS ONE ON TOP HURT THE MOST. WAITED MORE THAN A YEAR OF IT. ONLY TO BE DISMANTLED BY ME. THIS LEGO PROJECT THAT I AM DOING NOW BETTER BE A SUCCESS. and yes im running dry on the required parts again T.T |
