While we were walking around the shcool, I have learned two new things that related to the building, which is the space and how to bring the light into the building.
The first thing is about the space. As I was standing in the hallway in the cafeterial, I felt like it's small but when I stepped into the cafeterial, I felt more open because its roof. I have never notice this. Then in the hall way in where close to the gym, I felt a little bit strang, I felt like small and long because of the roof stay at the same level and short, when we face to the gym, I felt like more horizontal. I like that space because it's like perspective. The last thing for the space is how to work a small space become big and more comfortable. When I was standing in K hall right at the conner of the stair, I felt really great because the huge glass window brought in the light and beside the wall, it is a free space the I can look down. This is what make space become bigger. I will make that area in my musuem too, but it's not because of the space but sound. My museum is going to be mystery thing so if we stand in the area, the visitors will hear a strange sound.
The second is about the light. I also have learned about the light as well but it's not so important for me with this project because I don't want to bright much light into my museum. Anyway this is one of the most important thing to know.

After the competition for the burning man project, I got some more new idea for my museum. So far I have came up with only two words to describe my museum but now I have got another word from Burning Man which is "inequal". This is one of the perfect word beside bloody and revenge to describe my museum. It was a bit more difficult for me because I have to switch my class to fifth period but everything work out just find. First I have got a fews idea for Burning Man project but after all I couldn't use it because I'm new for the team. My new team mates have a really good idea but I'm kind of don't like it. It was a bit pressure to work as a team because I can not just go with my own idea. To me, somehow I think that to work as a group is better than to work a lone. At least we can have more ideas and also we can use their ideas and combine with our idea, they might can correct our mistake, but the consequences can be different than what we have expected. I have never known about Burning Man before. After watching the clip with the class, I think that Architecture is not just what we do to get pay but it is the one huge open world that full of creative ideas and also the world that alway open for all people to spread out their thought, ideas, new..... about building. The most importance is Architecture can allow us to split out the words what we can not say by building thing.

It's not so easy for a person who had never built or even created any picture of building like me, to build this museum. Anyway I must do my best with this project because it is part of my grade. Even thought it's not perfect for anybody but it's mean a lot to me. There are many things about this museum what I really like so far but there is one thing that I like about it the most is the big giant hole that I used it to separete the two buildings of mine. I am not really sure that the visitors will like what I got in my museum but I'm pretty sure that my museum will be interesting to them because all people over the world always like to know, to learn, to discover about different cultures and everything that they had never expected to happened in our beauty and peace world. For me, I have expected that most of people who come to my museum will never miss the big giant hole. As they walk in to the elevator to the underground and walk out of the elevator, and put one step out, what they will see is what we called The Hell On Earth, or what Cambodian called The Year Zero. I want people to realize that what is the meaning of life? Now a day, the new generation were too enjoying with technology. This is one of the most serious problem that the world was worrying about!

Last week I have spent the whole week working on my bubble diagram. At first I have no idea what I suppose to do with it but after I realized and understood. I walked to the site once again. I figured out that I should make a road that can allow people travel or walk as a short cut from 185th to the other road. I believe this is will make people know what is in the building better than they just see it from outside. This is what I like the most about my bubble diagram so far. I think that everything will fit in because the building is not just one floor building but we can build up to three floor. For me I build only two floor because if we look around our site, all the house or even building is short. So I don't want people to upset because they might see only the wall of the building in the early morning. The only one interesting lesson that I learned from bubble diagram is how to cut the section of the building. It teaches me how put or set everything in each floor on top each other. For me I did my best with this bubble diagram. I will have something that related to my museum such as showroom of art, theater of killing field... I want people to see or feel it as they were walking anywhere around the site before they put their first step into my museum.
