Loving FYP

I used to think that Poly life can never, ever be compared to secondary school. But now, because of my FYP, I got to know great peeps like Ya Wei, Carolyn and Jie Hui. They are really very, nice people that help me to boost my self-esteem and are always there for me to talk, complain to, and give me their honest feedbacks. Most of the time, they will feel bad about it because I am very sensitive. But I think they are actually very great friends 'cuz these opinions will help me to improve, right? Hee. I love you girls so much!!!

Our PI, Jeremy, is also very helpful in our project, sometimes funny and crappy too but most of the time on a different frequency. But his help is really very much appreciated, 'cause many times, he has to stay back till late at night with us. This is totally off topic but I think Dr. Chowdhury is also a nice person. Ha ha.

All the effort we put into FYP has paid off. Our 2D-gel has yielded results and is oh, so beautiful! Yet to receive the pics from Ya Wei though. Woo Hoo! The happiness I feel was so supreme that I totally didn't feel sad about leaving out a 7-mark (roughly 20%) for Cell Cycle UT. Although it was also partly because I didn't know how to do it, unlike Structural Biology UT. I felt so shity about it because I really knew how to do the questions but didn't have enough time because I was busy editing the words so they won't exceed the word limit of 100 words. And was later told that the word limit is not even taken into consideration. Fuck. Ha ha. My answers are missing words like 'the', 'a' etc.

Ok, back to topic, our gel results. With the results, we will finally be able to proceed on to the last part of FYP - MALDI-ToF Mass Spectrometry. Meaning our project will end by next week. Boo Hoo. I will miss those days chilling, and heart-to-heart talks at MOS after FYP :'( Oh ya, we also have to look for dining alternatives cuz all of us have a big hole in our wallets already. Ha ha.

I think I should also write this down so that I will always remember that I broke a $200 plate on Nov 1st. Sigh. Everyone tried to make me not feel so bad about it and its really, really appreciated. "Everyone makes mistakes". Another thing to remember is Mr. X threw Ms. X onto the ground when he was carrying her. Oops :x Now he owes her bedtime - 赚到了...

Need to get pics from Carolyn...
