Home is where the Heart is

An event organised by the NUS Pharmaceutical Society where we get to learn about what pharmacists do and about our health in an enjoyable way. 


There were 11 games booth set up at NUS Science Foyer, outside LT27.  


The first game we tried was a computer golf game by an external company - Xepa. The goody bag is so cute. Nicer than the happy meal box..haha..

• Research pharmacist
• Use ball and stick model to create and modify drug compound

I've finally decided on my FYP prof. It was a difficult decision but I hope I made the right  decision. 


Today's supposed to be the released of SPM results. I wonder how my brother did? :D


For the final 3 weeks of the semester, I've got 2 take home assignment (25%), 2 continual assessment and 1 pop-quiz. I'm beginning to feel that 24hours a day is not enough. Need to work harder!!


Anyway, TPJC 25th Anniversary Homecoming Dinner will be held on the 28th of May 2011. There's a high possibility that I'll not be able to make it as I plan to go back to Malaysia at that time. Wonder if any of my friends will be attending?

The lifts had been taking turn to go out of service. The maintenance is scheduled to be over by this Saturday. I hope it will be done soon. It's really quite inconvenient to have only one lift functioning at a time especially when we need to go up since we can't use the stairs to get into our cluster.

Went for my second interview today with my prospective mentor, Grace. It was not really considered an interview. Basically she told me more about what we will be doing in the lab and the people. Based on what she said, it seems to be a helpful and friendly lab to work it. 


Awaiting confirmation from the prof now. 

I'm so unprepared..got to study..

Just a few days ago, I began to email Professors to search for a suitable lab to do my Final Year Project. I guess this is NUS's way of preparing you for job-hunt when you graduate. So far, I've emailed about 7 Profs and among them, there are 2 positive replies (indicating they have projects available), 2 negative replies (lab's full or no projects available) and no replies from the rest (how demoralizing)

Roses are red, Violets are blue, I'm SUPER lucky, that I've got you :) 
Happy two years, at Marina Square, got lace blue gear, but no White Bear :( 
Happy Birthday, a practical gift, a tight wallet, many things to shift ;)
Yet still to come, i promise you, more happiness and love so true! :D

Love in your eyes
Sitting silent by my side
Going on Holding hand
Walking through the nights

Hold me up Hold me tight
Lift me up to touch the sky
Teaching me to love with heart
Helping me open my mind

I can fly
I'm proud that I can fly
To give the best of mine
Till the end of the time

Believe me I can fly
I'm proud that I can fly
To give the best of mine
The heaven in the sky

***

Stars in the sky
Wishing once upon a time
Give me love Make me smile
Till the end of life

Hold me up Hold me tight
Lift me up to touch the sky
Teaching me to love with heart
Helping me open my mind

I can fly
I'm proud that I can fly
To give the best of mine
Till the end of the time

Believe me I can fly
I'm proud that I can fly
To give the best of mine
The heaven in the sky

Can you believe that you lie down my way, no matter how that is my birth, I never loose my day.

See me fly.
I'm proud to fly up high.
Show you the best of mine.
Till the end of the time

Believe me I can fly.
I'm singing in the sky.
Show you the best of mine.
The heaven in the sky. 
Nothing can stop me to spread my wings, so wide

It's already Week 3 into Semester 2. My modules are finally settled and I'll be able to complete my second major this semester as long as there's no major disaster on my grades. Yippee!! They've allocated me, Supply Chain Management in replacement of Service Ops. 


This semester is also the first time that my P account is bankrupt. I've used up all my points for Tumour Biology. 2103 points in total. I hope it's worth it. So far the lectures had been okay but I don't really like the lecturer and the LT. He'll explain simple concepts quite throughly and rush through the more complicated ones. Today will be his last lecture, hopefully the other 3 lecturers are much better. And that LT is super squeezy such that you can't move around much. If you're late, you better hope that there's corner seats available, if not, you'll just have to seat on the steps.


I'm also taking Immunology, Hormones and Health and Darwin and Evolution, a new module offered for the first time this semester. The module is rather interesting but there's lots of readings, even more than what I have for my core modules. It's supposed to be science gem but there's so much history in it that I'm beginning to think that it should be classified as an arts gem instead.


The inaugural Residence Games is finally over after months of planning. Well done to the team! I think most of them really work very hard for it. 


I've just received one of the most troublesome coverage that I've ever done in VPC. The organising chairperson is so annoying. He keeps calling you almost every other day to ask about different things. Can't he just wait for e-mail replies?? It all started in December when we agreed to loan them the equipment for some shooting because we were short of manpower. He's request for the camera one day before he needs to use it and expect to get it. I'm not so free to everyday sit here and wait for your call with the camera. And I've never need to have 23 email correspondence with the organiser for one event. Arrgh..I'm just so irritated by him.


Time to take a break and play games!

From a module that has no exam to one with finals and accepting that I'll have 2 papers back to back after the changes. And after spending 6 hours in class, the class is closed and I'm forced to drop the module.


"We regret to inform you that the DSC3203 C2 class on Tuesdays 3-6pm will be closed due to low enrollment.  We have examined various issues at length but due to university and school policies, we would have to merge the 2 (ie, C1 and C2) classes. We will automatically shift C2 students into the C1 class on Tuesdays 9-12pm if possible. 

This holiday was quite well spent. I really enjoyed myself.
