Arini barulah rase x penat sgt dan larat nak tulis benda2 kat sini. Banyak gak yang aku terpikir 2 3 minggu kebelakangan ni. kebanyakkanya mase dlm traffic jam. bnyak gak a benda.
First and foremost, the internship period that i looked forward to for a long time. haha.
Wow. gila betul. at first, minggu first tu rase cam nk pecah kepala la. boring campur tension sume ade. bayangkanlah, on the 3rd day of internship, i went back home at 12am. seriously what is that. dlm hati bersumpah seranah maki hamun suma ada. tp aku x tau maki hamun kat sape. hahhaa. dlm hati teringat nak balik je.
As it turned out, i got an internship offer at Metacipta Communications. located at damansara perdana. near the curve. equipped with iMacs and stuff. at first tu rasa cam teruja gak a bleh pakai mac. haha. minggu first suma perasaan tu hancur.
BUT BUT BUT
as of today, its almost the end of the 2nd week, and curiously, i'm starting to get the gist of this thing. cam mula2 complain2 kan. but as i observed more and more, i think i get to know a bit about the personalities of my office mates. and one of them stood out from the rest for me. he's my boss. and also the creative director of the company. he's quite possibly the hardest man to please in terms of design-wise. gile susah nak kasi dia puas hati. not only me, as i still consider myself in the learning process of the ins and outs of the industry. the fulltime designer there also had a hard time making my boss pleased with the end product.
i don't know, but there is something that i admire in him. very fussy, yes i know. but there is something that makes me admire him all the more. the perfectionist attitude in his work. wah. gila babi pnye perfectionist. and he sits there quietly in front of his iMac clicking and typing stuff. and then he stops for a while. he ponders. and then continue on. but when he talks about design and stuff, and when he sees your artwork, don't even begin to think that your work will pass his QC. dia mcm analyze gila gila pnya. tgk satu layout dlm 10 minit mcm tu. diam je. pastu nanti dia akan comment. bagi aku yg newbie ni lg, dia akan point out yang salah2. tp kat designer fulltime tu, dia akan kata "try improve it more". padahal, kerje brader tu mmg dah mantab gile. cam bile aku tgk, xde ape yang silap pn. dah boleh dikatakan kalau kat MMU tu bleh dapat A+ dah kot. tp bile boss tgk, x lepas weh.
dlm 2 minggu ni, aku dah dpt 2 ilmu yg berguna dr dia. this is something not learnt in campus or class. its just something that i was previously completely oblivious about . its about striving for minimalism and the organization of design. the flow of design in everything we do. strive for that perfect balance of design, art and usability. susah bila cuba nak conceptualize kan bende tu bila dah di bagi case dr client. cam idea2 msti yang busuk2 je kluar. yg best2 xde.
so its a challenge. i'm really at the lowest point in terms of experience and knowledge compared to these guys. i'm quite useless right now at every job assigned. nothing i did previously in campus which got me A's and stuff can compare to the real world. its the real thing baby. its a whole new level. but it's still a challenge. i hope to learn a lot and improve. bile pikir2 balik kadang rase semangat jgak. minggu kedua baru terasa semangat. haha.
tp ya Allah penat yg amat. spanjang 2 minggu ni. skali je aku balik sharp pkul 6. yang lain purata 8-9 pm. it sucks. time2 tu la idea mmg dah xde. stamina nk buat kerje pn dah xde. ape kata biarkan saja balik kol 6. esok dtang kerja fresh terus bleh sambung. haha. i think this culture in the company is cultivated by my boss. dia mmg slalu buat kerja sorang2 smpai malam. kite org sume dah balik die still lgi tgh buat kerje. smangat dia mmg terbaek a. lagipun bile dipkir balik, die buat ni utk business die gak. duit die gak. so berbaloi la. aku ni, just nk belajar je. haha. duit masuk pn skit je. tp xpe. berbaloi a dngan pengalaman and knowledge. best bile dpat belajar satu benda baru. hari ni aku dpt belajar skit2 pasal website layout tu, rase sronok plak. smangat smpai rajin tulis blog ni. haha.
dlm masa 4 bulan ni, bile la bleh main futsal lg. lame dah x merasa. harap2 bila2 ada lah smpat bleh men.
