Rantings..
Before I start.. I have here a warning that says this entry is going to bear one or two cursings or foul language. Okay. My apologies. I am going to say quite a number of them. So if you feel like skipping reading this post.. yeah i really dun mind. But take note:
The GEMALA publisher is one hell of an asshole.
Whoops. I wonder if blogger.com have censors for foul words. Aikz?
Like all of you had already known.. last year's gemala was bad... real bad. I'm not saying the work, like DUH, but the printing is DAMN BAD. Worst ever among the past few years.. It's NOT ONLY the blur pictures, you will also notice that the colour contrasts are somewhat off.. and if you look closely you should be able to notice the printing lines too.. or it's actually quite apparent. At least it is to me. Blah di blah~
Sigh. Poor Gemala team 2005 members had put in sooo much effort into the magazine and we plainly thought it was going to be (almost)perfect... judging the fact that we actually introduced a whole new concept for article layouts.. and the fact that the advertising dept. actually brought in so many adverts that almost the whole mag is in coloured.. (exclude the photos part). It was so much improvement!! We met the due dates and all.. okay we were about a week or so late to hand up the last pieces of work but we're certainly ahead of many other schools.........
And the bugger Mr Raymond freaking ruined everything because he owns a lousy printing shop =.= Maybe you'd think that I'm a lil too overreacting because it was a small matter or something.. BUT IT'S NOT!! Imagine few almost sleepless nights I had just in order to finish up GEMALA work on time, doing final touches of the pages so it would look better.. Everything was so in control as far as when we handed every single stuff to Mr Raymond, not mentioning we faced a few problems here and there, but somehow everything was finally settled. Like, PHew! We're already doing our very best here..... Just then, something out of our control actually ruined the masterpiece. YYYYEEEEAAARRRRGGHHHH!!!!
SHEESH!! I know it may be a lil too late to complain about GEMALA thingy now, which it is. And I swear the wrath towards that stupid publisher pretty much died down with the closing in of SPM then.. that was very much long ago. HOWEVER... I was talking to my junior just yesterday and she told me stuffs about GEMALA 2006. They actually take back the same old - faggot - publisher.
NNNUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!! I said IT CAN'T BE!! WHY HIM?!! Then I thought, wait, it wasn't up to my concern then.. 2006 Gemala ain't my thing. Then she went on telling me that when they consulted him back on the poor quality of Gemala 2005, guess what? If I were there with them I would have punch the bastard's face swollen until his ugly glasses can't fit into his puke-when-you-see-me face. Omg? He actually blamed everything on the ex-editor and ex-head of graphics (Yeh that's me and Aishah. And I supposed he blamed Raja too) for:
1. giving him low resolution files.. What the fuk?! I CAN print the pages a hell lot clearer and nicer than his printer did! It certainly isn't the low resolution or how do you explain why the pictures weren't even blur on dummy copies (which are the check back copies he printed, black and white though) or when I asked someone outside the gemala team to print 1 or 2 of the pages?? IT WAS CLEARLY HIS STUPID EQUIPMENTS.. STUPID OLD HAG!! Blame us back somemore! Should have really sued him
2. they moved on to talk about the colours.. His reason again - we used too many complicated colours that he doesn't have the combination of colour. Er... first. I'd say there's no such thing as that unless he has a computer about 1 or 2 centuries back. He would have probably cut cost on the printing of our Gemala.. Or by any means.. He totally juz suck. And the part where the difference of the correct and wrong colours of Cy Eu's interview page is truly EXTREME, like, purple-blue to yellow-beige? WTF? The only reason to that could have probably been that his workers or he might have changed it by accident =.= Zzz... at least he was speechless about Cy Eu's page thingy.. I can almost imagine him coming up telling "oh.. that 1.. my cat was playing with the mouse and accidentally clicked at the wrong button"... To hell with him.
Anyway. Just in case you still go like "wth is yuj kecoh-ing about? nobody really complaint also.. it (Gemala 2005) is actually quite nice what compared to last last year's (2004's)".. Just a reminder. I'm a virgo. And yeah, virgos are perfectionists =) So you might want to prepare yourself before I come up with more of these rantings xD
PS: My apologies about being rude and all =/
2 person(s) kecoh-ed:
chill yuj..at least you know the truth..
Waste my money to buy petrol and matches only... his machines don't worth a thing.
haha.. chilling lar. I'm very much the carefree kind of person XD
