The adult world is pretty irrelevant to me. Whether
I'm off on my bicycle (or pony) exploring, lost

adventure and wonder and other stuff adults
don't understand.

lalala...
suffering from a lack of sleep. hmph. *grouchy*

hey CS! great to hear from you... what have you been doing lately? and why you never come my hse with your mother during CNY? hee hee. me haven't seen you in a long time.. heh.

it's good to... get away from everything once in a while. just go somewhere comfortable and forget about everything else. don't care about anything for an entire afternoon. don't worry about anything. try very hard not to think about brevity. hmm i found out how nice and important it is to slack/splat totally once in a while. haha. and now that i've found a new (and very nice) place to turn into a puddle of muck... :p

anyway i had quite a nice day at school despite my lack-of-sleep-ness... at least prac was nice. and it distracted me from my headache for about 3.5 hours. heh. [sigh. now it's back in full force.] finally i know how PCR is done. i've read abt it in books but i never knew what it's really like. haha. and our gel turned out pretty again. i think i'm becoming an agarose gel-making & loading expert. heh. tho i think i'll get cancer from all that ethidium bromide. ack. sigh. nice lab... means more lab reports to write. sigh.

me shall sleep. lest my head falls off.

am trying to fight sleep and a horrible headache right now. sigh. humidity does not agree with me. and i think i got out of the wrong side of bed this morning. maybe i shld have gotten out from the side that's against the wall. hmph. and today's lecture was... well, i still haven't quite figured out what the lecturer was talking about. so i took my cue from the people around me: i flipped my notes when they did. haha. (i exaggerate. oops.)

Marina City Park is a nice place. yep. :p

TGIF13
at last, at a more earthly hour.
i've been entertaining myself by walking to/in places this week. so far i've been to Bugis and Chinatown and Woodlands alone, IMM with Lynette, and all the way down in the city, of course. :p i feel like my week is so happening and nice and happy-like. sort of. i think what got me into this mood was mostly the weather... yup. it's been sunny blue skies this whole week and i tell you, nice blue skies do wonders to my moods. haha. too bad i didn't get sunburnt. sigh. but i'm glad i got to walk in the sun for a bit. haha. madness. blue skies make me happy.. haha ~sings~ i feel like i've just rediscovered the joys of snapping pictures here and there randomly. hahaha. so nowadays i try to bring my camera with me whenever i can. going mad.

today's lab was fun! much better compared to wednesday's lab...:p gel electrophoresis of DNA fragments...poor plasmid DNA got chewed up some by restriction endonucleases. :p and our gel turned out so pretty, haha. nice, defined bands where they were supposed to be. bleh. quite fun to play with micropipettes. i've always enjoyed pipetting. :) oh yea the gel took extremely long to run (~45mins) so we went for tea break. haha. Karima shouted us fruits and chicken! hahaha, i suspect it's because the rest of us (me, Gitta, Aminah) didn't bring money out of the lab. :p we also had a good time laughing about mutagens. (it's probably not a laughing matter, as most teachers will say) well, i risked my "womanhood" and took out the evil gel from the buffer. hahaha... ah well. the most important nice thing about today's practical was that there were no not-nice people. heeh :p

hmmm...am i freaking out about tmr? hopefully not. not feeling anything at the moment. heh.

happy Vday, people. have fun! :p

haven't been online for a few days..oops.

i had fun yesterday... went for my *free* DUCKtour ride in the afternoon. (note: if you leave NTU in the morning by the time you get anywhere it'll be afternoon) heh, found out a few days ago that the other person playing the sax for vday is my senior from NY! so exciting right. small world... :p well i was in my touristy mood yesterday, brought my camera and even a bag of chips, haha. but too bad eating wasn't allowed on the ride! oops. the ride was so fun! i like the part where the craft goes down the slope into the water. it was high tide at that time and there was a beeg splash! i got wet. water went into my hair and eyes and mouth. haha :p salty i tell you. heh. the view of the city from the water is so nice and pretty. :p i'll put some pics here later. too lazy to upload at the moment. :p hmm that was my first DUCKtour ride..hee. after we came back from the ride we practised a bit on a craft they weren't using...and the guy in charge of us came and asked us whether we'd like to play on the next ride just to see how it goes! haha. so we went on our second DUCK ride. haha. so cool right. and we played one song together. (on vday we'll be on separate crafts) lalala. the second time the tide went down quite a bit (since it was about 2 hrs after the first one) and it was so bumpy going down into the water i think my butt got boo-boo. hahaha. just kidding. :p so yesterday was fun fun fun. heh. i sound hyper again. horrible. i fear it's becoming a bad habit. ugh.
oh, i nearly forgot. the DUCK we rode on is called DARLA. (recall evil fish-killing little girl with braces in Finding Nemo :p)

why do i sound so hyper. not good. hmph.

today's lab was interesting. it's still as smelly as ever cos it's still those nasty bacteria... we extracted plasmid DNA from E.coli. there was a lot of centrifuging going on haha. but fun. latex gloves make your hands stinky, even hours afterwards. haha. somehow, despite all the stinkys, i ate a lot today...like about 5 meals. so terrible. something's wrong with me, i dunno why i'm eating so much...started this week. should cut down. getting huuuge tummy..then can't wear nice nice clothes. if i ever want to, that is. :p... think i talk too much. online. hmm. shall go watch the vids lynette lent me. got 5 of em and 1 dvd. *yay*
