Pre-tech week

So this was the final week before the final block at tech. Everything has been going a lil crazy trying to prep for a meeting on monday im not going to be here for - the presentation of the working drawings to that company i previously mentioned. In the same breath, considering im not going to be here for the next to weeks, i had to get all the work sorted out for then. So this week was just prepping for the time i am not going to be here and at the same time getting all my stuff ready for tech and also studying for the up and coming tests on Monday and Tuesday.

Anyways, thats it.. Take care..*

Flying by

The other day I was looking at my calender and realised.. the end of the year is alot more near than i initially thought. Its come to the point where you have to put everything in order and learn the last bit you can while you still have the chance. So this week went by extremely fast as the work increased as of last week. The company's building i was busy on had some internal changes after a meeting in the week so that had to be done along with the rest of the departments all over Cape Town and things are due all over the show. Yesterday i basically toured the whole of cape town going from one council to the next lol.. Its alot more tiring than what it seems but hey? Its a good long time out of the office.. Shhh.. you didnt hear that from me :)

Anyways, the bosses are back today and considering its Friday, the last bit of work for this week has to be finished off to start off afresh this week especially considering its nearly time for tech. Considering its two weeks this time, its really quite alot and truth be told.. Not really that excited. But anyways, take care now..*

Working drawings

This week began out easy, didnt really have any work to start.. But then Tuesday came the big bomb. The working drawings of that company is due Monday coming. So all of us at the office have sprung in for the various drawings that are needed. That has basically been the main focus for this week. Along with that came the stress of another department for the same company. So the working drawings and sketch plans have to be ready within a short period of time.

So i have to get cracking.. Take care..*

Month end

Lol im getting real tired of saying that i didnt really have much work to do - but its seriously the truth. This week i just managed to finish up those two buildings for that one company. The difference between the two was the internal arrangement as there was a different set of staff for each department. Another thing i did this week was internal and external renders of a previous sketchup model i did of a residential house. On a completely seperate note, i have a new work laptop :D lol excitement for the week. Also, all staff will be taught how to work on revit.. some exciting things coming up :)

Until then.. take care..*

And it starts..

At first this week went pretty easy with a few small jobs, changes or alterations. Then came the big things pretty much out of the blue. The company we were waiting for with regards to our sketch proposals are expecting working drawings by the 10th October so everyone was in the office was part and parcel of this job. With this came another two projects from the same company where we had to use the same design although fit the internal to the needs of that particular department.

This morning there is a meeting, so i have to get going.. Take care..*

Friday!

So this week was pretty laid back. There is quite little work at the office lately so once again i cant post much. Everything is basically in pending mode. Which makes the days drag beyond belief! Even my log book is next to empty. One thing i have realised tho is that i never really did houses this year, i can basically count on my one hand how much i did, the rest of what iv been doing are corporate buildings, which are so hectic and time consuming as it must go through so many departments to be approved - hence i sit with no work in the mean time. Today i have been given another corporate building to work on tho, althou its basically the same design which doesnt leave much work to do except the different detailing that needs to be done.

So i have to get to work (surprise), take care..*

Same old

Its come to the point where i dont know what to post anymore lol.. The week is the same every week. This week i got some new work tho, although that didnt last very long which lead to my boredom again :/. The office was pretty quiet this weekend also considering all the meetings the boss' had to go to. I dont really have much to say to be quite honest. One thing i really have to do is start on my MIP essay... its bugging me to the max.

Anyways, heres to getting this week over and done with. Take care.*
