20 March 2010
Today's weather is freaking nice can? Really cooling morning and super nice to sleep in that I almost overslept. Thanks to Siti's sms, I woke up at 10.45am.

Today's attendance for training was a lil disappointment. Less than half the team turned up. sigh. Woke up a lil late, rushed down to Valhall just to find out only 8. Sometimes we just forgot the responsibility that was placed upon ourselves when we decided to do something. Just hope that won't happen again.

Anyway, had a great time during the session. 3-0n-3 and 4-on-4 for 1.5hours. Had to ask Eddie to make a u-turn because it was pretty no point to continue training with 8 players. Walking floorball is just hilarious. really funny. Overall, spent my Saturday morning/noon doing something useful.

1 more month to submission of thesis! weeeehoooo...........I still haven't write my results section. gg. looking forward to the end of fyp. I really enjoyed myself doing lab work CURRENTLY. sometime it can be quite sucky but i guess if you look at the bright side of life, you'll find it interesting. =)

why didn't they die?

Why didn't my cells die when they're suppose to die?
Did I grow a super duper cells?
Did my media contain some powerful chemical that it gain resistance to my nanoparticles?
Did I even put the nanoparticles? Yes I do, confirm plus chop!

This is the 2nd time it shows more or less the same results....hmmmm.... they're suppose to die!!!!
sigh!

i guess this is research, expect the unexpected!

Okay, now I have loads of data to be analysed. I don't even know where to start, how to start and how to organise it. Erm, i don't really know how to read them also. gg. super gg already. been staring at my lappy from 6pm till now and I didn't even do anything. how interesting is that. sian. Shall do it before next week. Another set of data coming up this week. sigh. I guess this is the most "interesting" part in doing research, analysing your result. after that comes the writing. gosh!

Anyway, left with about 1 month before the submission of thesis. how time flies. omg!


Had my lab cleaning session today. Was pretty early. What I did was just to clean one incubator and then I can go off already....zzzzzzzzzz..... spent 2 hours in the flow cytometer room in one of the labs in SBS. The lab is freaking cold. So, for my confocal study, i shall bring a jacket. off to bed. early morning tomorrow. =)

We're 23

Made a small cake for BFF, Rai. =) I seriously need to do a lot of practise...tried to make my Liverpool design but it didn't turn out well. So, no photo for that. lol. I shall never give up!

the Fetal Bovine Serum celebration on my birthday =S

Okay...so today I turned 23. 2 and 3. sounds and looks old. but who cares. young at heart and young at look is what I care most. hahaha. but seriously, i can't believe that I am 23. oh man....23. time flies huh. What ever the case, I am grateful to God for allowing me to live and see this number 23. I may not have achieve the greatest and wonderful things in life, but i know i have seen greatest and wonderful things in life =) I am happy with who I am.

So, birthday or not birthday day, life goes on as per normal. Only on this exceptional day, my facebook wall is flooded with all the well wishes. Thank you people. Appreciate it. =)

10 March, as I mentioned, just another day. Another day in the lab. But there's something interesting thing that happen in the lab. Not that I discover something interesting during my experiment nor there's any explosion in the lab. Today I had the FBS somehow all over the right side of my body. crap! Huda, if you are reading this, I know you are laughing. not funny okay. =P Was making my media and filtering the media when I accidentally pull the pump while I was bending down. And wahla! the whole thing toppled and yay....spill onto me. The smell of the FBS is damn freaking strong and damn smelly can. Luckily, my lab coat is the plastic kind so didn't really wet my shirt. but too bad my jeans and face were not spared. yucks! smelly...there goes my 500ml of DMEM. bleachz! Never mind, it gives me a reason to wash my lab coat and shoes.

Okay, I think i'm going to bake a birthday cake for myself on Friday. hahah. I wanna make a Liverpool cake. weeee....hopefully it will turn out nice. I'm so excited!!!

FYP

Okay, so today i went to meet my FYP supervisor to discuss something. alone. woooooo.....nervous. lol. It was okay, he is nice...friendly...patient...ie he is good. i mean really good compared to the post doc i'm attached to. i hope she don't find my blog. the probability of her finding my blog is like 1%. haha. Anyway, ya..he is good...he explained to me slowly (not that I am dumb that he has to do it that way...pfffft)...he made sure I understand the protocols and all that. I think he wants to make sure that I don't screw up the experiments since all that are $$$$$. ching! ching! ching! overall, he is good. i loike!
Asked him about my test result and guess what he said? "It's expected. EXPECTED!!" but my that post doc said "its weird. read that WEIRD". omg! With his explanation why it is expected, i believe him more than her. lol.

I think i really like what I am doing now though it can be sucky sometimes but yeah, i know what i want to do after i grad. Now, when people asked what are you going to do after you grad, I have the answer! yeah! =)


Sometimes i feel like stop exercising and just slack and collect all the fats and be fat. muahahahah....but that will not be the case!!!


oh yes, I'm going to be 23 soon. twenty three. 2 and 3. omg! time flies!!!

Tempest training was fun. Since the last season, I have been enjoying myself during the training. Training isn't that intense nor slack (just that sometime I find it quite slack when I'm in the floorball mood...if I'm not, like yesterday, then I find it okay...lol). Yesterday's turn up wasn't as bad as we expected.
I seriously think that valhall overcharge their user. The ulu-ness of the place, the condition of the court, the not working fan, the very hot-like-oven (sometime) condition of the court...60bucks/hour..that is a daylight robbery man. if u're desperate and no choice, then no choice lor. lol.

In the evening, IVP BBQ at Khai's place. Most of us ended up in the wrong condo. lol. Had a great time there. slacking and chit chatting and laughing and the non stop drinking...ice lemon tea....really fun. enjoyed myself there and i believed the others too. I'm gonna miss them man...I'm gonna miss playing IVP.

Baked cake for them..as usual. I hope it is nice..that cake was my 3rd tries. Luckily I managed to bake a successful one. thanks to my mummy. mummy is the best! I really love baking. I find the joy in baking. =) More cakes to come!!!!

I like the boss of that cake shop. the one at Haig Road, Geylang. He is so friendly and helpful. He even gave me some advice on cake baking. =)
