finnally........
the long awaited moment is here......
my exams are over!!!
bye ngee ann!
:P
well... i do miss np, maybe that's the reason i feel so sian even though i finish my exams yesterday.
Let me conclude what are the important events that happened to me in np:
hehe,
i think first of all will be setting up a stall in the school's atrium for LSCT bazzar when i was in year 2, sem 1. Setting up the stall was real fun! our stall was selling kacang puteh and sweets and i remembered the peanut filled mashmallow which sold like hot cakes! in the end, the 3 sharholders gained some profit, but i dun remember how much. hehe. but it was the company that counts!
Second, it will be my first time encounter with white mice! and i killed it (ok lah, TSO killed it) and dissect it!!!!! my god, i was so scared that my hands were trembling all the way, and the worst scenerio was to open up the body and discover the world of organs. haha. ribcage, heart, lung, long long intestines( i swear that mice got real long intestine) spleen, liver. we have it, they have it. We were supposed to search for the spleen, which was at the top of the body, so i have to basically RANSACK thru the poor mouse, to get its small tiny weeny spleen.
Third, it will be my 2nd bloodied encounter. i killed a fetus of a chicken. not sure how old were they, but they were quite developed already. with HUGE eyes, and big heads. like tweety. :P
okies, the worst part is coming, i had to snipe off the head and throw it away, and mince up the body. but i feel that the part that i have to carefully crack the egg shell and to KIAP the chick out of the egg is the most disturbing. i can see their heart beating. so pitiful.:( i think i almost or i cried when i was doing this.
Soooooooo, here comes year 2, sem 2.
My 2nd encounter with white mice, supposed to take their tail bleed, which basically means u force the mice into a falcon tube, and then take a blade to slight cut the tail to take their blood to test for prescence of antibodies. this was ok, and not so cruel, until i heard that somebody accidentally slit off the poor mouse's tail. u idiot!!!! i dunno what happen in the end also.
and then up next will be mr rabbit. We supposed to inject the rabbit with antibodies i think and see if they developed some resistance or dont know what. so one class has got one rabbit for us to inject. so the usual me, just look only, where got dare to touch lor! i did feel the pain for it, but the good thing is i think my class guys did a great job, so the rabbit didnt suffer la.
and then, we grew our very own veggies in the greenhouse. drew and mine's were like a jungle of green. very well grown, maybe too much nutrients. hahha.
OFF i flew to UK after exams.
UK was a great experience. the lessons i learnt there, the friendship i made there, the part of the world that i've seen, all were duper precious to me. in fact, overseas attachment is the best part of my poly life.
I came back, and begin with year 3, sem 1.
Final year project. It was a terror. protocol, experiments, reports, lit review can kill us within one shot. Nothing much happen, and the sem past quickly, cause only 7 weeks.
Year 3, sem 2. this is the toughest sem of all. work stress, exams stress, project stress, fyp stress, all came at one go. i swear that i nearly break down from all the work. but then eventually, exams are over.
i'm sad because of no more lectures, tutorials, presentations.
No more playing ard with pipettes, and blowing clean air in clean room.
