It was 7.30am, a day before the submission of my movie. I jumped from my bed and headed towards the study table and continued making my movie. I have just slept for 3 hours and i was making the movie again. What a life!
Thank God, the process of making my movie ended an hour later. I kept replaying the movie to check on its quality. It was not too bad. I felt happy then thinking that my work was almost done. my nightmare came when I read the things in the forum. I was so shock to find that i needed to write a short report, the objectives and learning outcomes of my movie as well as a short description on how my movie could be used in the class. and a story board. among all these, i dreaded story board the most. There were more than 90 frames in my movie. How could i finish all these in a day?
I started drafting the story board in a book. after writing a few pages, I decided I should have begun printing all the story board templates first. thus, i stopped drafting immediately and printed all the templates. while waiting for the printings, i kept thinking of what i should be doing next. all these happened simultaneously. finally, i decided to do the sketching of the frames.
honestly, i did not think i sketched them. instead,i drew them. that's why it took me almost 4 hours to drew everything. i then started describing every frame. I rushed so fast that my handwriting was awful. (Hope Dr. Raja Maznah will not cut marks on this). All of a sudden, a blackout happened. luckily, i already drew all the frames. thus, i experienced no difficulty to continue the work. I felt the heat in my room and I started perspiring. I ignored all of them for I only concentrated much on finishing my assignment. Surprisingly, many of my frames wereof repetitions. (Children just love repetitions). Thus, i could just recopy at times in order to save time. (Of course cut-and paste way is faster but no electricity).
It was 8.30pm and the electricity had been here 2hours ago. I started on writing the report and any other requirements uploaded in the forum. everything was indeed a rush for i managed to write everything within 2 hours.
Though it seemed that everything was done by 10.30pm, i somehow could only go to bed at 3am. I had no idea that much of amendments needed to be done. And I was really really tired. I would only have another 3 hours to sleep so better go to bed now.
p/s: I will never want to procrastinate ever again. It was just so tiring for me to handle. zzzzzz
