Sometimes I do wonder if I made the right choice to get into MMA.
It all began from Year 1. I learned a lot of things that I never got to learn in Secondary School or in other courses. One of my favourite module was DPM where we got to learn how to take good photographs. Other than that, all my other modules were not really much of my interest. DRF was a hard one for me. My Art has been constantly getting poor grades from primary school to secondary school. I manage to get a 'B' for that module because the lecturer that taught us care more about how we improved instead of drawing really good drawings. I feel that I let the lecturer down because after so long, I still can't draw well. GDF was another killer. I myself can't really design well. As for the programming modules: PDA and PSP, I started out knowing nothing to being able to make a simple flash game through programming. It got me a little more interested in this area.
Start of Year 2. Things start to get tougher. I got to learn 3D modelling and making visual effects. It was fun to learn all these new things. I especially like 3D modelling as I had been quite impress by how people can make a virtual object look so realistic. But when it comes to doing it, I did not fare very well for it. I couldn't complete some of my assignments on 3D modelling on time. Also, my 3D models weren't very nice as well.
It is almost to the end of Year 2 soon. Right now, I still can't complete my assignments for DDI. It isn't much of a work, but the expectations of the graphics is just too much for me. I have the ideas for making it nice, but when it comes to practical, I just can't seem to portray it out. Currently having to design a banner and application but yet I still have not completed either one. I guess I'm prepared to retake this module.
Maybe it wasn't a wise choice to have come into this course. I'm just sorry to have let all my classmates down.
