Renovation "Look" 装修佬样

We took some photos when we were doing the renovation for our workplace.
One week of renovation was an uneasy job, but we are quite satisfied with the outcome.
装修的时候，我们拍了一些照片，做个纪录。纪录我们邋遢的样子。
一个星期的装修期真的不容易，我们总算熬过了。
看到成品，不错，满意。

Clap Clap. 为自己拍个小手。

Workplace 工作室

Once we have decided to set up this company together, without a second thought, we started to seek for a workplace. Fortunately, our inspector, Kim managed to find an ideal workplace with the help of a helpful agent.
决定一起搞东西后，我们立刻找工作室。地点是Puchong KL。很幸运的Kim找到了一位不错的Agent，很快的就找到了适合我们的店屋。

After we signed the contract, the most frustrating part was the setup and the decoration of our studio. This was urgent because we already received a photo-shoot project which was scheduled to take place one week after we moved in. We had to finish the chores, complete the setup and everything within 1 week. We were working in the new studio from dusk to dawn, literally, during that period.

签了合约后，最头痛的装修开始了。我们必须在一个星期里赶完装修，因为一个星期后我们接了一单在Studio拍照的生意。那时几乎是日夜颠倒的赶工。

Wall painting was our very first step. In the beginning, we thought we were able to finish painting the whole studio by ourselves. However, we gave up after a day and hired a professional painter to do the job for us. Even though it cost us RM900, the painting job was completed in 2 days!

首先是油漆。一开始自以为很厉害，可以自己油完一整间工作室。油了一天后就投降了。请了位油漆佬来，RM900，两天就油好了。主要的颜色是黑，白和土耳其蓝。

入口的线条墙，是我们自己油的，因为油漆佬讲太麻烦，要加钱才肯油。谢谢Kim老弟的帮忙，也谢谢油漆佬提醒我们要用Apollo Masking Tape才不会掉漆。

自已油的，很不均匀，还弄到全身是白漆 By ourselves

自己弄的线条墙 Striped wall, we did it ourselves

Next task was to do the wiring! We found a man who was willing to fulfill all of our weird requests. It only took him 2 days and cost us RM950.
再来是拉电佬。他说我们的要求很奇怪，第一次装这样的东西，幸好他很愿意配合我们。拉了两天的电，收了我们RM950。

We also hired Kim's mum's staff to grind the floor, as the former tenant actually carpeted the whole unit. The ugly glue stain was everywhere after the carpet was removed! The poor Indonesian guy took 2 days to finish the task. He almost gave up at one point, so we immediately topped up his wage by RM500!
我们也请了Kim妈妈的工人来帮我们磨地面。因为之前的租这间店的有铺地毯，结果地毯拿掉后留下很多很难看又很难弄掉的胶水印迹。可怜的工人磨了两天的地板，还弄到全身是灰尘，磨到最后他想逃回家。我们立刻加钱给他，还拜托他帮我们洗地抹窗。工人费是RM500。

On top of all of these tasks, we also installed 3 air-conditions which cost RM4000, and spent another RM1100 for window grill.
装3架冷气，RM4000。装铁花用了RM1100。

After a week of hectic yet simple renovation, we managed to start working on our first project.
不修边幅，邋里邋遢，肮肮脏脏的装修了一个星期后，我们成功交出一间可以见人的工作室接待我们的第一位顾客。

开工啦! Our very first project in the new workplace

The Departure 出发

Let's us start with the beginning of our journey, we have been met up occasionally and discussed about starting up our own company for quite some time. We always used to have mix feeling to initiate the first step towards this journey, especially in the case that we do not have enough funds to set up a small company even though after working for 4-5 years in our professions respectively.
聊说要一起搞东西已经有段时间了。但就是不敢踏出那一步，尤其是我们这群才出来社会工作不到五年的朋友，钱都没存到多少就要学人创业当老板。

Here's the simple brief of our crew:

Four of us are graduated from MMU faculty of Creative Multimedia. Yet, our house's unit number is 711 when we move out together during the second year. From that time onwards, we named ourselves as "SEVEN ELEVEN". After graduation, one of us become freelancer, blogger and and doing online boutique business, some has become professional photographer, an animator and yet there's the one who joined local radio station as a DJ.

快速简短的介绍我们。

我们都在多媒体大学 (MMU) 念多媒体设计。大学二年级时搬在一起住, 门牌刚好是7-11, 所以我们家就叫Seven Eleven。大学毕业后，有人跑去当Freelancer, Blogger, 卖衣服，有人当上摄影师，有人成为了小动画师，有人跑到电台每天乱聊天。

自称为检票员, Inspector 

I bet everyone happened to have this kind of feeling. When one feels like losing his/her enthusiasm towards life, or maybe work like a dead zombie everyday, these symptoms indirectly show that the one has started to lose the passion towards his/her job. At this moment, one will start to think whether it's the time to consider to step out of the comfort zone and do something that you really passionate about! That's when we started to plan...
当你觉得生活好像失去热忱，失去想法，为了赚钱而赚钱的时候，有可能是时候做一些自己很有兴趣的事情了吧。我们就这样开始计划我们的计划。

There's too many stuffs that we wish we could do! However, at the end, we decided to work for those we really have the most passion in them such that those projects mainly related to design, wedding, beautify life and fashion stuff.
想做的东西太多了，最后我们决定有关设计/结婚/美化生活/拍照摄影/时尚的东西都包到完，就都是我们很喜欢的东西。

Our company: One Way Ticket.

Since everyday is a one-way ticket, which means that there will be no chance for us to rewind or to press on replay button like what it works for computers, thus why not we try our very best to live with every beautiful moment! You Only Live Once.

小公司取名为One Way Ticket，单程票。既然每一天都是单程票，不能重来，我们更要尽力让当下过得更完美。You Only Live Once。

Although we are assure how far this one-way-ticket can lead us to, but at least we have made our very first step here!
So, come purchase a ticket from us and join us! And let's depart!
这张单程票可以让我们走多远? 不知道。至少启程了。欢迎你也买张票，加入我们。
出发!

Lastly, we would love to share this inspiring video with you which inspired us a lot!
最后和你分享以下的短片！
