Week 9-Documentation Almost Done
This week, Ms Megan still accompanies us to continue our documentation and workshop. She also gave us an extra class on Thursday and Friday to guide us to do the documentation. Ms Megan really understands our situation that we are very struggle and suffering to finish our documentation without any guide last week. She also gives us an extension for our documentation submission that due next Monday. She really explains clearly all of my doubt about the documentation. Ms. Megan had re-explained and went through the guidelines of the project documentation with us. She also show us example of some documentation done by previous VU students.
Now I’m more confident that I can finish my documentation on time by this Monday since it is no longer 10,000 words and take out some part of the documentation that not needed. I am glad that I’m almost done and Ms Megan already went through my documentation and also gave me some feedback and comment.
Week 8-Extension
The dateline for project documentation is getting closer, this week all of us are busy preparing the documentation. Now I can’t work on the system much as I’ll have to work on the documentation instead. We are supposed to submit the documentation in this week after the mid term break, but I still have so many doubts regarding the documentation and I wonder if it’s possible to extend the documentation submission. Luckily Ms Megan visits us earlier and she explains clearly all of my doubt about the documentation. She also gives us an extension for our documentation submission. It looks like we just need to prepare around 7-9 pages for the documentation but not 10,000 words.:|
Holiday
This week is a holiday week for our Sunway University College. So sad, I cannot enjoying my holiday and need to be just stay at home focusing on my Final Year Project. Most of my time is exploring the Flash and 3ds Max. I also took a lot of time to come up different types of design to develop my project.
This holiday, I manage to find time go back my home town to visit my childhood school. I have shown my interface to some of my childhood school children as well as getting feedback from my family members and my friends around. The children don’t really comments on my design, maybe they’re all still a child and not request so much from my project. At the same time my friends has suggested to change few things that I have put in my project.
Next week, VU lectures will visit us, I just hope that VU lecturers would probably accept my project concept and design. Not much progress I did for this week also as I’m wasting time learning backs my Flash and 3ds Max, also to draw out some images and improve on my project layout. I won’t have much time to sleep and I felt that I’ve been really slow to fight with this project. I wish that can have a time machine to turn back to the past, starting of the Final Semester, so I can re-plan my time to complete my project smoothly. Have a nice FYP busy week! 
Week 7-Stress
Super duper fast, Week 6 just past it like that~ as the due date for project documentation is getting closer, I have become more stressful compared to the previous week. This week, Ms Jeya have discuss with us about “stress management” in class. I find it very suit for our case now, all of us stressful with our Final Year Project, it is an interesting topic for discussion. Besides working with my project documentation, I also work on another assignment due this week. I do feel stressed sometimes when I have so many tasks to do.
I was wondering why we have so many assignments need to do during our final year, isn’t it nice if we just need to focus on one Final Year Project only. Besides that, we also need to pass up our Final Year Project documentation early than the system itself. How to make sure that my documentation is fully complete if my system is not fully working yet. There hasn’t been any major progression in my system this week because I certainly find it hard to manage so many tasks at the same time. But I have done with my main interface which probably needs a lot of modification
Week 6-Interface Design
This week like usual my classmate present their progress report to Ms Jeya but seen like I was still far behind them, I still planning on my interface design, I feel I am not god enough to complete my project.
I had presented my interface design to Ms Jeya, but Ms Jeya feel that my interface is not attractive for children, seems like Ms Jeya insisted on having some attractive design that suit for children interface. So I still need some time to redesign my interface and recreate 4 main buttons for my interface. But for documentation part, at least I’ve come out with the detailed Gantt chart and Structure charts that better than the previous one.
