Triple Thread

So this week I had a few thing to take care of even tho it wasn't really exciting but at least I kept busy.


So I finished off the drawings that needed to be done for the current project that we are busy with, yet we still waiting on the clients approval and meeting need to be made.


I did some more filing, just sorting out the documents that were sent and received for the current project so that things will be easier to locate.


And lastly I was helping out with the printing
for a previous project which shall be starting soon.


So that's how my week played out.


Will keep u posted ;)

And so on goes the filing....

So this week was kinder the same as last week, a DRAG even tho it was only a 4 day week.

As we are still waiting on clients to make a decision we were still left to do some filing, this filing thing is really getting to me even though its part of the work experience its really boring.

So as the week progressed we came across unfinished drawings and which I was so happy to do, I never thought I would say this but I missed CAD. You know there is something wrong with you when you say things like that lol.

So I hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend and I know we all amped for the next long weekend lol.

Will keep u posted ;)

Filing forever

So this week I haven't really been doing much other than filing.

Its really crazy to see how much paper work has to be done and to make sure to keep records of every single thing to be able to back yourself up if something should happen .

So thank to the long Easter weekend it saved me from filing for another day lol. So that pretty much what my week looked like...

Will keep u posted ;)

Minor Complications

So this week hasn't been good not related to work but to my health.

This week hasn't been stressful but we have been keeping busy just getting some more designs off to the QS and now we just waiting for once again another estimate.

So while waiting for the estimate we have been sorting out the filing of previous projects which gives us a chance to see the process that the firm went through and also to see some of their designs.

I haven't been working all week because I had fallen ill on the Wednesday and couldn't attend work the Thursday but other than that all is well

Will keep u posted ;)

Cleaning Up....

So last week was really busy.....
Monday we had cleaned up the office and I must say that was quite a job hey, was so exhausted after that but as we all know I am a clean freak so it was to my benefit lol.

Tuesday wad filing day and this was the first time I had filed things is the office. It wasn't actually that bad because you get to knw how they organize thing and also the long process architects have to go through with Clients, Contractors, Quantity Surveyors etc as I just read through the written documents as I went along.

Wednesday, Thursday and Friday were cramming days in order to come up with new designs that had to be sent off to the QS by Friday so that we could get and estimate as the original design was a lil over the budget but its nothing that can't be fixed...

So that was my stressful week...

Will keep u posted ;)

Campus time....

So this week was very chilled a work since I only spent 3 days there and of course the other 2 was spent at campus getting crits and briefs.

So basically I didn't do much this week because everyone one was busy with the presentation of drawings to the client in a meeting that took place on friday. I'm actually really anxious to find out what had happened in the meeting and what was said...

All i did this week was work on internal elevation which an ex employee did not finish and also just update a few sections and elevation...

This week was really boring due to the fact that I wasn't their for 2 day but I actually missed being at work. I never thought I would say that but I really did hey, I guess there's a first for everything right.

Will keep you posted ;)

The Approval

So last week was very chilled, not as busy as the previous weeks because we are waiting for our clients to approve our design so we can move on to the next step of the project.

But during the week our mentor was helping ayesha and i with some precedent ideas for our project. Our mentor was also talking to us about drainage and how to go about to avoid certain situations.

Basically I've been trying to come up with an idea for my hub, but I feel like I'm nt getting anywhere. I've gotten Ideas I just need to try and put then together and consider my pros and cons.

So its campus this week so see you there and w ill keep you posted ;)
