kk.. I am still here..

Haven been blogging for sometimes.. hmm coz i was quite busy now.. busy with internship, intersem and piano.. and my mood was very very very very very... bad...

Anyway, started my internship in Dr Sze's lab.. hmm.. both me and zhi hui are under a lady named Yang Nan.. She was a first yr PHD student from france.. wow.. she is very friendly and is also a graduate of NTU.. hmm.. 1 yr ago.. yap.. I am happy that I am in this lab coz I can get to learn DNA works.. stuff like cloning.. yes.. been wanting to do that coz my poly FYP was mainly on protein works.. hmm.. so far so good.. juz the starting of cloning which is restriction digestion and ligation.. Next week we will be doing transformation.. wow.. k.. although I have done that before during attachment but i juz feel that cloning is fun..

Kinda missed IMCB.. coz in IMCB, I am so spoiled by the people there.. haha.. I dun mean that they treat mi exceptionally nice, but is juz that, alot of things we no need to do ourselves.. example: we no need to make our own media and solution.. now, we have to make our own.. besides that, for photo taking or gel extraction, we need not went all the ways to other floors or building.. juz on the same level, we can have the job done.. we need not walk from one end of the lab to another end of the lab to get all the stuffs we need.. all we need is to have all the things placed in the shelves at our desk, and when we need it, juz jave to stretch our hand or stand up.. but in NTU, is so different.. like the workload is doubled.. haha.. in IMCB, we can even do the transformation at our own desk and not in the laminar flow.. Dr Sze's lab is very cautious abt ethidium bromide, so different from IMCB.. everything is so ordered here.. abit not used to it.. but no choice..

Abit happy abt myself yesterday.. I can remember everything that yang nan said when we were in the lab (for your info, things that are in the lab should not bring to the office unless it is sterilized.. my log book is in the office..) so after the long discussion, I actually can wrote down wat she said and even the protocols.. hmm.. never realised that my memory can be so good.. but tt's provided I have interest in that stuff.. for sch lectures? forget it.. lol..

so fast, our intersem coming to an end soon.. hmm.. haven start studying any.. luckily exam is multiple choice.. lol..

Anyway.. dunno y i feel that life is so uninteresting.. have been wanting to have something different.. but dunno how.. juz feel that something is missing..

NPS first guitar mini concert

Today is a special day.. how special? coz NPS got its first mini guitar concert held in school without MR Alex's participation..

Meet up with dj, jin wen, qi and kuang at clementi for dinner.. went to the famous western food store called "Botak Jones".. The price was around $7 for regular and $10 for large.. Although is REGULAR, the portion is big.. so 5 of us: 2 guys and 3 gers ordered juz 3 plates of REGULAR can fill up our stomach.. we ordered the famous fish and chips, chicken chop and the super extra big suasages sandwich.. they gave us alot of fries.. the fries were mixed with some chilli powder.. quite nice.. all of u can go and have a try.. is at blk 3_5 (forget the middle number) near clementi MRT station.. haha.. when we finished our meal, we meet up with heng before we went to Ngee Ann together..

As usual, free concert is always held in LT26.. hmm.. alumnis that went to the concert, besides the 6 of us, still got Jason, James, Chao Zhi, Yue Ying, Yu Hang, Edward, Jolene, Jeremy Mar and Marcus (should be so many ba.. sorry ar.. poor memory..).. OMG! Marcus become so thin.. look so young now.. changed alot laot.. that's the result of NS? lol.. There were also those that just graduated from NP but still participate in the performance.. They are Kelvin, Sheena, Jonathan, Alvin and Tian Hui (Dunno if I missed out anyone..).. The performance was not a bad one as this concert is quite last min..

Mr Alex was so happy that they actually held a concert that was totally on guitar alone without strings side ppl.. Yes.. Mr Alex is still Mr Alex.. A 80+ yr old man who can tell you alot of things (if you have the patience to listen) and who always forget that I am in NTU now.. haha.. anyway, heard that he is organizing a Asean guitar concert now.. countries include Thailand, Laos,Myammar, etc.. Sound great huh..

After the concert, Jason and dj were planning for a kbox session.. haha.. too bad that not many ppl wanna go.. Jason even tried his "pao mei mei" technique.. but too bad.. he failed.. SO in the end we went to alameen to ate supper..

Dunno why, I juz can't run away from the "suaning" from heng and kuang.. now, they even have a new member in the grp, which is Jason.. Poor mi.. haiz..

Piano Resume and Pool

I resumed my piano lesson yesterday.. OMG.. after losing touch with the piano for 2 months, I feel that my fingers do not listen to me.. disaster playing.. my piano teacher said that she hope that I can take the exam in March next yr.. Oh.. my 23rd birthday.. hope i won't have a bad birthday coz of piano exam.. *pray*.. as for theory, I was totally lost.. haha.. I returned everything to her le.. die.. I really hate grade 6 theory.. all about composing.. why must we follow so many rules to compose a song? why can't juz follow our feeling? hmm..

Went to meet ying yang for pool and at the same time return him the lecture notes that he lend me for the sem.. As he was late, so I went to the library first.. so long never enter a library coz I dun like to read books.. anyway, I can't across a chinese book titled "暧昧".. dunno why it caught my attention (Maybe coz of the chinese song ba).. yap! is a love story.. but I have not finished the book so dunno what's the story like.. read a few chapters, quite an interesting book coz there are some funny parts in it too.. The pool game was fun as usual but still dun understand why my pool is still so lousy.. ying yang is pro in the game and you can imagine how much force he used when the ball entered the hole.. the thought tt goes through my brain was "better dun let any of these balls hit mi".. so at the end of the day, ya.. he won most of the games..

Tml finally got the chance to meet up with ying and kath.. the last time i saw them was the friday before Biophysics paper.. missed both of them lots.. hope tt tml will have our usual talk cock session in coffee bean or starbuck.. looking forward for tml.. ^_^

*In the end, I failed*

One year in NTU

Oops.. seems like I am few minutes late as promised? lol.. thanx to Jiawei for the reminder..

Yes! Finally exam is over.. overall how is it? Hmm.. not that bad but worse than last sem.. that's all I can comment.. Here, I must thanks all those who have give mi support during this tough period.. people like Ying, Kath, Jun, Wenxi, WeiQi and Sebaz.. thanx alot.. not forgetting those who tried my questioning bombarding.. haha.. especially Ying Yang, haha.. thanx alot.. hope ur phone din burst from all the questions I asked.. lol..

Hmm.. thinking back, 2 semesters had passed.. still remember last sem, i entered NTU with an unsure feeling coz I am the only one who chose NTU instead of NUS among all my friends(those that have direct entry).. feel so lost when I stepped into NTU.. what kind of people will I meet.. I am so lost.. However, I am happy that I met lots of nice ppl.. maybe to other ppl, this consider very little, however, for a ppl like me who is not sociable, is really alot...

First of all, is my dearest Zhi Hui.. always enduring my crazy temper but never leave me alone.. too bad she is a pig.. if not she will be better.. haha.. thanx ger.. I really appreciate u alot.. thanx for tolerating my weird temper at times.. and thanx for all ur concern u have given me.. thank you.. muack..

For my the other best pal in NTU, Ying Yang, thanx for all the help during the examinations.. haha.. hope that all the questioning nv scare u off.. really happy to know you in NTU.. you are eligible to be a nice little ah beng! lol.. but still wondering how ur brain works.. lol.. going China soon.. must jiayou wor!

Jiawei and Sootng (nucleophilic attack to become sotong), the two gers who I got to know them better this semesters.. like glue like that.. always stick together.. nv get separated.. lol.. enjoy the "quarrels" with sotong.. haha.. my journey back from sch becomes interesting with the presence of you two.. thanx.. Jiawei.. Jiayou wor! hope u will recover soon..

Not forgetting other people that I have known.. my ah gong, Russell, always so traditional.. really like my ah gong, thanx for ur listening ear.. Weichao uncle, who always call mi "Jiehui Da Jie".. dunno why he called that when i am younger than him.. 38 Zhixian uncle, who always like to matchmake ppl (at least from wat i know), Gentleman Isaac, Edward and Kheng Boon, Lavin, not forgetting the first joker I know in NTU: MR JOSEPH NG TECK LAY.. haha... I still like to call ur full name.. and also Chee Sheng.. Of course got others like Lihua, Nura, Xiuhui, Nalini, Minli and other frenz whom I did not mention.. ppl who makes my life in NTU not that boring.. I should thank Lihua for all the questions I asked before school started last sem.. coz of the unsure feeling and she still willing to help mi.. thanx alot..

Hmm.. looking back at the past one yr.. somehow enjoyed the learning process.. like my elective I took last sem, our group (Xiuzhi, Ethel, Junlin and Intan) chose the topic on transexual.. remember going to Changi village in the middle of the night to "interact" with the transexual and the fun we had for making male Junlin into "female Junlin".. haha.. really have lots of fun.. enjoyed doing project with you guys.. and I have learnt quite alot from it.. thanx guys..

Wa.. Seem like I am writing thank you speech like tt.. must be influenced by someone (you know who you are).. So I shall tok abt what I have done today.. erm.. I mean Yesterday..

Went to Jurong Point with Zhihui, Jiawei, Sotong, Russell and Isaac to eat Jap food? dunno lah.. the one at the 2nd floor below fish and co.. after that we went to walk around.. guessed wat, we went to Toy's 'a' us? alamak.. I dunno how to spell that.. anyway.. like back to childhood time.. playing with all the toys.. quite fun leh.. lol.. dunno leh.. i juz like toys.. keke.. k.. all of you can say mi childish.. I admit tt.. lol.. but we only walked awhile coz Zhihui and Isaac heading home.. never get to watch movie.. BUT luckily I din watch coz my dad got free tix for Spiderman 3.. haha.. 6.45pm show.. yes! went to watch it.. erm.. overall not tt nice lah.. haha.. coz spiderman nv propose.. so sad.. anyway.. I am happy that I DID went to espanade today.. too bad I can only stay for 5mins coz it is raining.. but can go espanade I happy le.. keke..

Many things did happen during this one year's time.. dunno is good or bad.. no matter wat.. I hope tt future will be good..
