last day of the year

feeling much better today. especially when things started to go my way in the afternoon.

decided to leave the lab a little early since tomorrow i will be back to the lab for the whole day..yes a very special new year's day indeed, whereby i will be doing my work in the lab..anyway, dropped by Pyramid to have a little walk while waiting for my cousins for a ride home. new year's eve..should feel happy :) so went to have my favourite food in Pyramid, which is the crispy wrap. then passed by MPH, thinking that maybe i should check out whether there is any stock for 'Life of Pi', the book that i have wanted to buy these few weeks but cant find a copy. and when i went in, there was the book, lying on the shelf!! :D very happy indeed!!! really make my day.

so eventhough i still cant get the results that i want, yet again..i am very happy now :) last day of the year wasnt that bad after all.

happy new year to all! best wishes for the year to come...

very sick

home sick. very very sick...the main cause of this sickness is the lab. get stucked in the lab for too long, and keep getting no results. i need to get away for a while..i want to go home

super duper bad mood. just want to find ppl to chat. but some people are just so stupid. i care to start a conversation, but people just dont care to reply. i am not asking you to show any concern for me, just even answer my questions also so hard??? i know i m not some hot chick with a pretty face. so dats y i dont even deserve to be a friend? ya i m just stupid to pick the wrong person for a chat. and now another one does reply, but start to tell me lies. great. sadness turning into anger. thank you

i think i need some rest

Merry Christmas

time really flies. another 2 weeks have past since my last post. n today is christmas! cant help but feeling a bit excited, eventhough it is a stay-home-do-work day.

right after my last post, talking about all the longing for movies n break, the next day my uncle decided to have a family outing, dinner and movie :) we watched 'The Warlords' (投名状), starring Jet Li, Andy Lau and Takeshi Kaneshiro. it is one of the movies that i feel like watching these days but no time for it until the outing. the movie looks quite good in the trailer, and Takeshi Kaneshiro is one of the actors hahaha..the movie turned out to be good! better than what i expected. not just pure killings but more about human relationship, reality and life. the movie lasted for 2 hours, and when the movie ended, i realise my joints were kind of stucked..didnt really move much but just focus on the movie itself all the while hahaa..lucky i didnt leave the cinema with the comment 'nothing special...thank god at least got takeshi'. quite a good movie, worth watching :) and the outing was great. had a wonderful time. enjoyed the night

then..life moves on. nothing too special happen. for the week in the lab, things were not too good..still cant get the results that i am supposed to get. cracking my head thinking about what went wrong..one day finally found out that one of the volume of the solutions that i added in was wrong! was quite happy at first and thought that i really solved the problem, but then...when i rerun the test, NO RESULTS AGAIN.......god. i really dont know whats wrong. haih..going to try another method tomorrow. hopefully it works.

last friday (21/12/07) my office had an end-year bash, to thank everyone that has contributed something to the group. was really happy that one of my bosses, John, and his family made it for the event. always like to see them, such a happy family..had a good time catching up things with them. great night :)

then sunday (23/12/07)..went to the christmas event in the church with Eugene How. the event was great, like last year's. i always like their idea of holding a candle in the hand. the view of a sea of lights on the screen showing everyone in the hall just looked magnificant. next year will i still be joining their celebration? god knows..

then yesterday (24/12/07)..Christmas Eve! so decided to give myself a half-day break. went to Mid Valley and catched a movie, 'Alvin and the Chipmunks'. not good..eventhough i like the chipmunks, since i was still a small girl. the chipmunks were really cute...but the story line was just too normal. too much of singing. too bad..i thought i can have the feeling as the one i have for transformers, watching childhood favourite cartoons and enjoying it very very much, but sadly, i dont. the shopping mall was so crowded. suffocating..couldnt shop properly, and didnt really have time for it, because had to rush to go for a christmas pot-luck gathering at my lab mate's house. the gathering was quite fun..and i learned how to play mah jong hehehee..and we had a very lucky position with very good 'feng-shui', whereby anyone who sat there would win the game! all the winnings were from the people who sat there last night haha..interesting. anyway quite a nice outing.

thats all for the long long happier story..is life really better? hmmm maybe. i guess so..but i guess i will only have the greatest joy if things turn out well in the lab. my wish for this christmas..and also hope everyone that i care would be happy. Merry Christmas :)

need a break

have been very very busy these few weeks..was very sad and depressed because of the honours project. very stressed. until last week things started to turn out a little better, and finally managed to go for my long delayed sampling. but still made mistakes here and there when i processed my samples, because i was nervous and still not as confident as before. my confidence have been dashed quite severely and it is still slowing recovering..anyway finally get through the second sampling. really hope that things will go smooth in the lab. really need a lot of luck..wish me good luck..

this week finally not that busy in the lab..not that stressed. try to relax a little more. really feel like taking a break, going home, or just spend one day window shopping and watching a movie..i need a rest, after being so stressed for the past few weeks. will try to squeeze some time out..hopefully

honours year..really not as easy as i thought. i m not someone who thinks a lot, have a lot of interest in research. i am still blur and still make stupid mistakes in the lab..not very thoughtful. this is what makes me stressed. maybe i shouldnt have taken up the honours course..maybe. but no turning back anymore. so must continue on. no matter what, still have to get through everything. so all i can do now is work harder. people can survive honours year, so can i. just work harder

these days really appreciate friends around me who try to help me one way or another, or just listen to me at times. thanks a lot!

thats all for now. hopefully i have some nice stories to share soon.

smooth sailing in the lab please..really hope so

i need some fun. i need a break. i want to go home...
