TOKYO 2004 :
So far I started writing these trash,the (so called!) manifesto,exaggerated and that much annoying to you I can bet,the idea led by the first couple of weeks after I'd moved to Tokyo.Being enormously obsessed by the continuous strain of my daily school life at T.T.C. I found my sadself(!) wanna go back to my country,sometimes.The compact schedule for the academic year consists of 5 different terminal exams and daily evaluation test after every lesson of the day,innumerable Mock-tests as the preperation for various license exams and these kinda stuff were pretty enough for a foreign student to be "Fucked-Up" ! I often blamed myself to be there.It was not frustration,I just happened not to enjoy Tokyo life as I dreamt while staying at Osaka.

After a pretty long painstakin' negotiation,I could manage my Kacho-sensei to give me permission to go home in the summer holidays.Over the vacation,I just concentrated on my Studio projects like a typical 'ARCHI'(very common slang used in buet campus for every visible matter belonged to architecture faculty!!). And was trying to rush through the lessons of 'Construction-detail' or 'History' whatever I found not much related with Design.What I wanted to do is to absorb and digest,and make a part of my mental make-up,every fact and idea I came upon in my Planning and Design studio projects.Very fortunately we got "Kouzumi sensei and the group" as the course-tutor of STUDIOーⅠ.We learnt the basics of zoning concept and details of tradional Japanese fixtures of wooden houses.Consequently,we learnt Timber-frame structures in Kohda sensei's CAD-Studio.

The Studio projects and workshops were much more effective than theory classes.You can learn new things,practice it by your self and finally apply into your own design and express your ideas by the skills you gained through the whole process.After Koizumi san,Ando san(very enthusiastic young architect and part-time teacher of T.T.C , graduated from T.T.C.), Aya sensei(professional 1st class Architect),Hiranuma Kaori san(pretty hot Japanese lady,having out-standing skillness in 3-D softwares) and Asaba sensei came respectively as our Studio supervisors for STUDIOⅡ,Ⅲ,ⅣandⅤ.Hiranuma san was specially engaged for Sofware-Laboratory.The T.A.s were also kind and helpful.But the most resourceful thing I found in that school was the library.A lot of English books about Architecture were there,although not much frequently used by the Japanese students,surprisingly enough!!

The final project of 1st year was emphasized a lot,as many interesting projects were done by the students through the year long STUDIO courses.So,before the Winter vacation,we had been told to select the best one among those of our individual projects and make a ful-fledge digital presentation with model and relevant illustrations for "Jury"(held in March,2005).

The year 2004 ended with a big 'Kadai' and a short winter vacation.By the way,I forgot to tell you another funny event of 1st year...........we had a great 'Gakuen-sai' which was celebrated with 'Kunitachi Shimin Matsuri'.That was simply amazing.I planned with my African friend to set-up a small food-stall and named "Afro-sia"(Africa+Asia).It became very popular to the Japanese students at the time of that Festival.
