from this week onwards (actually should be last week), our workloads started to pile up and every single test/practicals are followed one by another...6 more weeks before finals, gosh..
how am i suppose to deal with all the hassle bussle? for me, i'm still able to cope with all the tests, but when it comes to practicals, i literally can hang my head on the wall...
for next week alone, we have 2 BTE practicals to complete. a few days back we have been busying on searching for materials and chemicals in both biotech and chemistry labs, talking about hands on huh? apart from BTE, we also have a cloning project for genetics by the following week too. this project would take us roughly 6 or more days to complete!!! just got the outline a few days ago, the way our project leader a.k.a our lecturer planned the outline is like participating the survivor show.
DAY 1: Restriction digest + ligation
DAY 2: Transformation
DAY 3: Select/ isolation of transformant and recombinant
DAY 4: Growth of transformant and recombinant (14 hours)
DAY 5: Plasmid extraction
DAY 6: Determine who has successfully isolate the plasmid
sounds like fun?
i'm smirking at myself now, sarcastically...
and not to mention i have one presentation coming up for BTE, and the topic i'm in charging is...
Regulation, Patents and Society in the application of biotechnology!!!
psshhhhh what the heck...why on earth am i being chosen to do this topic?? this is like officially the hardest topics to present of all. bah~i guess i gotta start to memorize all the acronyms from now on =(
by the way, i'm currently hooked on Leona Lewis's Better In Time.
Hopefully it will all get better in time~
keeping my fingers crossed...

losing grip...
guess i've never been feeling so damn down before...
from this morning til the night, everything just didn't seem to go the right way..
i'm losing grip...
i'm so upset until i didn't have the mood to do anything besides studying...by this way i'm hoping that i'm able to load lotsa informations into my brain so that there's no space left for other craps/bullshit or whatever you call it.
why things always don't go the way i wanted?
i'm always at the losing end no matter how hard i try...
no matter how HARD i try....
i need some times of my own
self-isolation from now on til this coming monday
no msn, no phone calls, no anything.
i just want to be alone for once.
i'm just sick of pretending...
pretend that i'm fine when everything is not...

Beijing Olympic 2008!
i think i can watch the Olympics!! hopefully all the sports that i want to watch won't finish early before i go back!
have you got the album of the theme songs of olympic??
should check it out...i think its worth listening...!!:D:D:D
Death
on the night i finished my exam, my dad told me one shocking news after he confirmed that my exam is over...
my uncle has passed away..i just couldn't belief that...
i thought he misuse some words or he was mentioning my uncle's father...
but
the truth is...
is my uncle himself..my xiao gu zhang...
he died on last thursday, when i was giving my pharmac paper...
and my mum asked my dad not to tell me first to disturb my studies..in fact, no one tell me...
such an important incidence but.....
well...he is not old..52years old only..infact i thought he is younger than my dad but maybe he always exercise or what..he doesn't look that old.. i was very close to him...
i could describe our relationship as the words i spoke to him in his entire life is less than the amount i talk to my other uncle in one hour!!~
we are very close relatives but this news bring only shock and no more....maybe you guys can read from the newspaper too...he died at the Number 5 hill near youth park~
i think a lot after that....
why do i have the feeling of shock only?no sadness ...nothing except shock and unexpected~that's it!
I suddenly realized that if it was my other uncle that really close to me (not by genes only) passed away,i would go mad...but not to HIM...why?!
and i guess, one day, my cousins and i will become stranger..lacks communication...lacks everything that used to exist between relatives~~
It is very difficult to accept the fact that i had reached the age which will always have to face 'DEATH'...i hadn't attend any funeral..except Mr. Lau one...i don't know anything about death~but, from now onwards, i think i will be taught with 生live;老old;病sickness;死death....
scary...:(:(
ps: the lecturer that evaluated my exam seriously came to teach us on the first lesson...!!!
whatever my friend and i predict will happens occur...really hou geh hmm leng, chou geh leng!!!
and im watching drama gu ling jin tan and tai ji...what's next!?:D
Goodbye...uncle...

freak alert
Ishhh, this morning i was late to class again...(though this time was only 20 mins late *grin*) the class started on 9am but guess what, i woke up at 8.45am!!! actually i woke up around 7am already, but i couldn't beat the sleepiness and continue sleeping ;p
well, as expected, the usual basement carpark was full and so was the ground floor one...
so one of the guard gestured and asked me to drive to the lower basement (what? i didn't know that this basement actually existed! aiyoh...why am i so oblivious???) seriously gotta work on my sensitivity towards the surrounding...
by the time i drove to the lower basement, i was like OMG...why so cacat one? the floor was muddy, wasn't the concrete cement type of floor, and it was kinda dark there so i had to switch on the headlight while looking for a place to park. only then, one of the guard started to switch on the light...sweat!
after i found the perfect spot and parked, i heard a familiar Sean Kingston's There's Nothin playing. ohh, my phone rang....clumsily i pulled the phone out from my sling bag and looked at the caller ID display.
ehh?
it just weird to receive call from this person cuz it has been ages since this person called me on the phone after we went through a couple of not-so-pleasant + awkward situations.
this person:" hey, still sleeping? today got class you know?"
me:" uhh, yea i know, i'm coming now.."
using all my remaining energy, i made my way up to the SUPER DUPER sloppy road which lead to the college side door. one of the guard somemore asked me to walk faster because it was gonna rain (heavily) soon!!! what the heck la...
as soon as i reached the class, i was panting heavily as if i've just finished a 10km marathon! so sia suei~~i need more to do more exercises!!!
then during one of the break, sir asked me to choose one of the options from the board...
it was about the date and arrangement of tests, quizzes, and assignments thingy
and my vote was the most "crucial" one...haha, as there was a tie between the options. so in the end, i just followed my instinct and chose the first option and that is:
quiz 1 ~ 5%
test 1 ~ 10%
quiz 2 ~ 5%
test 2 ~15%
i guess it's something like that...quizzes and tests, no assignment involved!!! *hooray* i didn't choose the other option cuz there's ASSignment involved and personally, i just hate doing ASSignments. So time-consuming and it just doesnt work for people, me especially, who works last-minutely.
sorry for those who wanted to do the assignment so badly! =p
since i chose the package which comes with so many tests and quizzes, then you should be able to tell already, that means i will have quiz and test for the subsequent coming weeks...gotta study my ass off!
one coming test for this saturday ---> principles of biotechnology
7 chapters!!! well....what more can i say?
*keep your butt away from the chair, switch off this freaking PC and resume your revision*
lastly, a picture of mine which taken EXACTLY 1 year ago!!! EXACTLY!!!
change much? doesnt change much?
who cares???

FINALLY!!!!
My first block exam of my second year has finished!!!!!
YEAH!!!! and yup...ARHHHHHHH!!!
I am sooooooo sui and bad luck...during this period...(or its considered as good already!?:)i wonder!)
this block means a lots to me as i failed my first block in my first year and i played a lot during this 12 weeks time..spent a lot and so i think i should at least give a at least a not bad result to my parents to proof that i do STUDY, not only enjoying my life here!
well...it was fine...i hope so...except MICROBIOLOGY!!
i seriously wanted to F*** it ....i don't know why i want to use this word to describe my condition..but ...yup, 2 days back,this is the only word i felt to be suitable to describe me!!
Microb should be the subject i studied the most yet, the portion is almost unable to be completed...i left 2 parts in my practical which are less likely to be asked as my head was like going to explode..severe headache..plus a bit fever...what the......
i totally lost my confident in answering the essay paper...unlike pathology and phamacology, i kept on questioning myself in the answer i had wriiten down...qi you ci li..thought i will fail the paper again...and the worst part will be the practical!!!!!
my headache was sooooo severe that i couldn't think properly or even write correctly...and i was in the second group--meaning my prac exam start after 3pm! i had been stayed awake from 3.30 am le....how to tahan?!!!!
GRAM's Staining!! arghhh......
i was examined by a lecturer who seems very strict and i actually didn't want her to give me viva but...she examined at the end...
got bombarded by her questions and the worst part is that she wanted to look for me because of my journal~~
people....those who has passed microb,help me...
i mean BOTH OF YOU!
1) what is the classification of Gram's staining?
2) what are the significance of Gram's staining? (except differentiate positive and negative; bacteria and yeast)
There are more than 134 people giving their journal to be corrected...
i dunno how on earth she got to know i copy my friend's one...
i have no idea how stress will i be in her class when she teaches me later!!!!!!
92!93! <--92 is my friend; 93 is me....easy to call and ask question isn't it?!!?
NEXT!
HANDPHONE!!
why must something bad happen every half year im here?
1st--i lost my P
2nd--my laptop got infected
now!--there is a 'defect' in my handphone--you won't be able to hear what im saying...
i bought 2 phones here last year...and just started to bring one phone and the problems come...
my roomate sent me one msg that day...very funny! let's see...
