update.. finally...

Okay.. I am guilty of not updating my blog often enough. Have been very busy and I am always too tired to blog when I get home.

Well, quite a number of things have happened these past few weeks. I seemed to have something on everyday. Take this week for example, Mon n Wed got tuition, Thurs I went to my uncle’s house and help him fix computer, today me got public duty, sat got tuition in the morn, an event in the noon and a dinner at night, den Sunday got tuition in the morning and a mahjong session in the afternoon. There goes my weekend…

These couple of weeks was very busy in the office. The place was like a mad house. Calls kept coming in and we were super short of staff. The moment the phone was down, it start ringing less than 5 seconds later. And the AUNTIES can still walk leisurely from one place to another. My gosh.. I literally ran can? Even from my seat to the photocopy room. I really cannot stand them. And the aunties hor.. like to bully the temp staff. Whenever it was their turn to retrieve the voicemail, they never seemed to be able to finish calling. And hor, got this ONE auntie, she can give us 6 pieces of voice mail at 530 and tell us to help her call. And even have the cheek to say that she’s on leave the next day. Idiot.. I do not mind calling for her but can dun give me at such a time? I hate leaving things undone. I remembered once when I stayed back to finish my calls and the next day I realized that we still have many undone coz the aunties only gave us that morning!! Argh…… Not only that, we are always blamed for everything and even framed for not making progress with our work. WTH… we have other things to do oso can? And the aunties are not helping much.. idiot… I am really amazed with my friend’s mother and my ex-supervisor. How can they stand such ppl for so long?? 1 month I already want to strangle them and they managed to work with them for at least a few years?

Talk about work makes me mad. I though office work would better but now hor, I think field might be better. Minus the house to house calls, at least I dun have office politics. Not that I m involved in anyway, but I jus cannot stand the ppl in the office. And hor, at least while I was doing field work, I dun have so much encounters with irritating ppl. Coz I was working at the officer, I literally have encounters with ppl from all parts of Singapore. And I only have 1 conclusion. Singaporeans are terrible ppl. Not everyone, but in general, Singaporeans are not the most polite kind around. If you are not going to like what I am going to say, please do not read on.
As I was saying, I get to meet all kind of ppl. And hor, because you are from the government, ppl are complaining to you and asking you to help. They kept saying that we are the government and we should help them. Some ppl are really very poor things but there is really nothing much I can do to help them. But at least they are still polite and nice ppl. SOME ppl are rich like siao.. live in private flats, bungalows and terrace and complain that progress package not enough, mrt fare so expensive blah blah blah… Siao ppl.. like I do not pay the same fare. And if you want a bigger progress package den move to a smaller house lah. Who ask you to live in such a big house? Serve you right… Not only that, there are ppl who say they are very poor and ask if we can help but hor, they are earning a couple of thousands a month. Not a lot, but definitely much better than those family without income. Sigh.. still got a lot more lah. I always meet weird Singaporeans.

Anyway, jus a couple of weeks more and I am no longer here.. counting down..

rena in making...

This week I was really really ultimately blur. I left the house late as usual on Monday and I refuse to take the train so I decided to test the bus and see how late I will be. I missed 190 when I got to bus stop so I took 190A which end at PS and see what bus I can change to. In the end I took 124, thinking that it follows the same route as 190 but I was very wrong!!! In fact, it did not stop anywhere near my office. And the traffic was very heavy and it kept getting stuck at traffic lights. So in the end, I reach hong lim complex at 845 and I have to run to my office in my heels. In the end I was late for 20 mins…sian…

And, on Wednesday, I was blurred again. I took the wrong bus!! I cannot believe it. I thought I board 190. Den when the bus turned, I though I took 960. I thought it was fine coz I can change to NEL at Little India. In the end, the bus turned and stopped at Newton MRT station then I realized that I had board 700!! I cannot imagine how blur I was…. How did I manage to imagine 700 as 190?? I think I must have been too tired…

Must be all the aerobics classes that I have been going for. I have been attending kickboxing classes for the past week. I really enjoyed my Wednesday class coz it was less stressful. The class on Monday was not very nice. I do not really like the instructor even though I can see that he has some pretty loyal fans. I attended his pilates class before and I din really enjoy it too. But the Wednesday class was stress-free and was very fun indeed. And the instructor is very cute! I think he looks like JJ except that JJ is much more good looking lah. I can still attend his classes for the next 2 weeks as tuition only resume at the last week of june holidays. So happy… does anyone wants to join me? Huimin?

argh... its tough to plan timetable...

It is subject registration tomorrow. Do not ask me why so early when exam results are not even out. My batch got to be guinea pigs for the school AGAIN. How nice… I really think my school sucks. The school management has no brains at all. Ever since corporatisation, everything has changed. School fees increased. Exam timetable changed to N*S system. So now I have evening papers and a lot of back to back papers. I do not understand why they have to change to be like them? To attract students? I think this will push students to them since we are entirely like another them except that we not have the fame associated with them. If I was a student, I will probably choose them. I kind of regret coming to this place. So irritating….

AND…. BS is jus as bad. They changed my ENTIRE year 4 curriculum. They removed TCM totally and move drug and discovery to sem 2 of year 4. Coz this module was offered to the year 3 students in sem 2 as part of their prescribed. And we only have SEVEN modules, from which we have to choose 5. Unless we want to take drug next year together with the year 3 students. Not much of a choice right? And after much considerations and thinking… this is going to be my final exam timetable...

BS404 16-NOV-06 1700 1930 biochem
MB246 22-NOV-06 1300 1530 Management of IP and Innovation
CV4202 23-NOV-06 1700 1930 human resource
BS406 24-NOV-06 0900 1130 cell bio
BS407 28-NOV-06 0900 1130 genetics
BS408 29-NOV-06 0900 1130 immuno
BS411 01-DEC-06 0900 1130 viro

Note the number of back to back papers. I have never had any back to back papers before!! And now I have 2 blocks! One block with 3 papers in a row, in which one paper is in the evening and the next paper is early morning, and another block with 2 papers in a row. I chose to drop structural because the timetable clash with my biz module and the exam is on 30th Nov. Meaning that if I take structural, I have 4 papers in a row!!! Wow!!!!

Sigh…Please wish me good luck. I have a very bad feeling about the semester... my only consolation is that I am leaving the school soon. Really growing to hate the place.

Traumatized

*another backdated post*

About three weeks ago, I met this financial advisor to do a financial analysis. Normally I would have rejected such things but I was referred to him by another friend, plus they are personal friends so I thought it does not hurt much to jus meet up with that person. I do not think I will employ his services anyway. Since I do not want to meet him alone, I brought 2 friends along with me.

We were supposed to fill in a questionnaire and at first I thought it would be a fast one. I did not expect it to be so long. It dragged over 2 lunch sessions and 1 very long session. Yesterday was the last session with him and I was truly traumatized over my financial status after the session. We were supposed to write down our income per month and list down all our expenses for the entire month. This includes birthday presents and everything den divide by the number of months to get an average per month.

OMG… I was really really shocked at my expenses. My goodness.. I din realized that I was such a high maintenance woman and I spent so much money on rubbish things. I went home and did a detailed calculation and I had a shock of my life!! My stable source of income is only $388 per month and I have already spent $500 a month, not including shopping expenses. My god… I am living in deficit…

Sigh... I think I have to start saving money liao... Try and cut down on some things. I am still thinking of which section I can cut down on. Maybe entertainment and birthday presents bah. My facials and products cannot cut even though they are the largest portion of my expenses. Sian.. I need more money.. money money.. where fore art thou money??

bored...

Currently sit in my office. Bored like siao.. nothing to do and still have to act like I am very busy… sian… the only good thing is that I get paid for doing nothing.. but I dun like lah… cannot even do ur own things… surf net oso surf until very scared coz I am sitting right outside the pantry with the AD sitting very near to me. Talking abt the AD, he is the most 小心眼 man I have ever met so far. Every little thing oso must hiam. I heard that many temp were chased away because of him. He got no brains ah? If the survey cannot finish, he will probably just blame it on the staff and he will get away scot free. But as if he will discover if anything is wrong coz the staff will handle everything for him. Bird-brain guy.

Anyway, I haven been updating my blog recently. I oso dunno what have I been busy with…

Last week was a lot of tuitions. On 15th I had my normal tuition with my centre and after that I rushed for an extra with my private student till 10pm. On 16th I helped ailing to relief her class. But before that, I went to Queensway in the afternoon to buy my shoe bag and a sports top. Den I went to RV for a CPR class. And I blur blur thought that I was late for class so in the end I took a cab to the centre and wasted money when I am already so super broke. 17th was tuition again but since I started work, I had to postpone tuition and I stayed till pretty late coz I stayed back to do work. 18th I went for aerobics class. Really have to start going for more classes.. I am getting fat!! And 19th I went for pilates class before meeting biyun n chris for shopping. I din buy anything coz I was damn tired and broke but biyun n chris went home with a number of 战利品. 20th was tuition again. One was at yishun and another at woodlands.

21st was another teaching day but this time I went to teach CPR and got pay one wor. Den after that I met hz for dinner. It was together with a group of ppl lah but I dun mind..

This whole week is busy week again… Mon n tues was tuition again. Huimin came down to meet my for lunch on Tuesday and I brought her to eat the Ipoh Crayfish hor fun at hong lim food centre. I tell you hor.. the hor fun is damn nice!! Its only $4 and u get an entire crayfish. I never liked to eat hor fun but this changed my view. Yesterday was hz’s birthday and we went to watch da vinci code. Many ppl say the show not nice but hor.. since I never read the book before, I thought the show was quite nice. Jus dun like the gruesome things.. but I like the puzzles.

Sian…. I realized that I am very eng during working hours but after work I am very busy. Today still meeting a fren to discuss something and tmr I am going to Chomp Chomp to eat dinner. So happy!! I realized that I haven been posting photos. Simply coz I haven been taking any.. I will try to take more and post some to liven up this place.. and I have to try and change my blogskin..

Going back to acting busy….

Bra Shoppe

*warning* this is an advertorial.

i haven been able to update as much as i want.. i have so much to write but i always forget abt them when i get in front of the computer. Anyway, this post is something that i have been wanting to do. I was doing retail therapy in the middle of the exams and you know what i bought? hehe.. i bought bras... hehe.. and i spent a whooping $280 on beautiful lingerie. My friends said i was mad but they are really beautiful and it makes me happy. hohoho...

I got them from this store call Bra Shoppe. Check out their online store here. I got to know them last year from cleo or something. They have really pretty lingerie. A bit on the high side BUT they also have cheap ones and ALL of them are VERY NICE! They have a booth at Paragon Metro and a really really pretty office at IMM where you can make an appointment for private viewing . The decor and everything are very pretty and even the fitting room is superb. Check out the photos below.

And Carol (the boss) is very friendly and helpful. I finally know how to wear a bra properly. hoho.... Carol even said that if we have a group of 5 or more ppl who wants to view the bras, she can provide snacks and drinks for free so we can jus have a gathering there. And if we do not want to go down to IMM, we can arrange for a private viewing at someone's house. They will bring all the bras down for you. But i still think its nice to go down to their IMM store and the price is slightly cheaper too. It is a really nice place to shop for bras. Anyone wants to go n see? Guys can consider them as a present for their gfs. Girls can buy for themselves or for their bfs' benefits. Heheh...

Anyway, recently they had this promotion at buy 2 sets for $150 (original at 168 for 1 set) with free delivery somemore (they have promotions occasionally and for mothers' day, they have a mother's day special. Check out their website). There were only 20 sets for sales so i hurry up went online to look and picked those i want. When Carol delivered the goods to my house, she brought some pretty undies and i bought 1 really nice one. And hor, after she left, i realised that one of the set she gave me dun look right so i went down to their store to change. And i was tempt into buying another set of bra. I jus cannot resist them coz they are so nice. I wanted everything. So that explains why i spent so much money. Now that really made me feel guilty coz i was supposed to be saving up to go hk.... BUT i am still happy coz i have pretty lingerie. Everyone should check out their store.

Anyway, here are some photos...

The display area where all the bras are nicely displayed..

Me in the fitting room holding a very nice bra which i din buy coz i was really spending way too much money...

the aftermaths of exams

*this is a backdated post. i cannot seem to post anything here for the past few days*

These few days were quite happening. My last paper was last Thursday and after the paper, I met hz for dinner at bugis. So happy.. hee.. he msg me in the morn to wish me good luck for my paper and asked me if I want to meet for a while den he go for work. So sweet hor? It must be because I complained that I cannot ask him out when I heard that he was working night shift on the last day of my paper.

On Friday, I had packed day even though I was supposed to go back to school to do my lab report. I went for tuition in the morn, facial in the afternoon where I spent like 300 bucks on facial products and tuition again in the evening. I felt guilty for having spent like 500 in a short span of 2 weeks! Gosh… but hor… like peak yean said, money is small thing, face is big thing. SO I dun feel so guilty about spending so much money. And I really think the products are worth the money. I feel like my face is getting better already. Great!

And Saturday was polling day yet I had another full day. I went to vote in the morn and I was so excited! My first vote wor! After voting I went for tuition den I went for yoga classes. I was sooooooooooo blur, I actually forgot to bring my pants and I have a buy a pair of yoga pants on the spot. Shit mah. Waste money again… But I have always wanted to buy another pair so quite justifiable right? ;P

Sunday was tuition day followed by lab report and a birthday party. God.. that report was terribly hard to do.. I could not even finish half by the time I have to go out for the party. And when I got home, I was so tired I fell asleep while doing the report....

Sooo… since I was not hardworking enough on Sunday, I had to work hard on Monday. In the end I cancelled morning tuition and pushed back my afternoon tuition twice. I managed to finish my report, even though it was badly done… Come to think of it, I think I could have done better for my lab report. I realized that I din write any discussion at all except to answer his questions. After lab report I had to fly to tuition and I was lucky to get a cab in school. Den after tuition, I went to quality hotel to meet some friends for a vegetarian buffet to celebrate a friend’s birthday. The meal was quite ex and I think it is not really worth the money. I ate nothing much except for a lot of mushrooms.

I still have to say this. I think I will do badly for my papers. After I came out from the exam hall, I was not feeling relieved. Instead, I felt a sudden pang of fear. I think I am going to do real badly. Sigh.. but its over.. what to do? And I could not be bothered with my lab report to try n pull up my grades. OMG.. I am such a terrible student….

And since xiling asked, I shall share with her my secret. She asked how I managed to survive through all my last minute lab report sessions. Actually I oso dunno.. haha.. I jus do loh. And when I am really desperate, I become a parasite and start pestering ppl. Hehe… Anyway, like she’s mentioned, this is probably going to be our last report, apart from our final year project.

Well… last more year… live through it. I WILL SURVIVE!

today's polling day

Received this last week. Guess wat it meant? Means I am eligible to vote! yeah! and its the first voting in my district since a very very very long time ago. I am so lucky right? The moment i hit 21, i not only got a lot of money from the govt, i even got to vote. Seems like my year not so bad afterall right?

And today's the day. The day which decide our country's future. Vote carefully ppl. But quite sian.. my block's void deck is a polling station AND YET i have to walk like nearly 400m away to my allocated polling station. How dumb can this be??

yeah! its finally over!

and so am I. Still got report on monday... sian...

Hmm.. review for the exams.. i am feeling scared now. Over my results. I think i am doomed. This is probably going to be the worst is not one of the worse. I seriously think I am getting stupid. Last time, i can remember things jus by copying. I do not have to read a second time and even if i do, i can still rmb what i wrote. This time round... hmm.. i write already den i go back and read.. i was wondering when did i ever wrote such things. And now... things take longer to get into my brain and most of the time, they got in like this but they came out another way.

Sad sad.. exams are getting terrible. Like what i told my friends, i used to be studying for exams like for A's. Now i am studying for my exams like i do for my O's. Slack...

Pray hard and hope that there are ppl who will do worse than me and help to pull up my score. Please please.....

i am a low processitivity DNA polymerase

nope.. this is an understatement. I am a super low processitivity DNA polymerase. I just cannot bring myself to study. I am so tired.. i want my holidays.... sigh... I am only covering 1 lecture each day these past 2 days... sian...

argh!! I need more drive to study.. only a few more days!!

I still prefer studying about simpler stuff. The complicated things that I am learning turns me off... I jus cannot bring myself to study them.... argh... sian....

exams are going to be over soon...

yeah! i am 60% cleared for my exams.. i know i know.. there are tonnes of people out there who have already finished theirs. But at least mine is finishing right??

I cleared my most feared paper today, cancer biology. I was more than glad to get it over and done with. Can you imagine having to remember all the dumb forms of cancer, the molecular mechanisms behind them, diagnosis and treatments? There were hell lot of stuff to remember and very little time. And i kept mixing up all the pathways and the chromosome numbers. IN THE END... hmm.. the paper din really asked a lot of details. In fact, it was quite do-able. There were some questions that i really dunno how to do so i jus smoke my way through. I hope my smoke was logical. Hopefully i can clear this module with a decent grade. After this paper i really had 如释重负的感觉. Felt so much more relaxed man....

Two more papers. I just hope that i can trust my instinct more. It had been more than once did i suspect my own answers when they are actually correct. HOLIDAYS.. wait for me!

buried in the middle of books

2 papers have already passed.

Nothing much to complain about the first paper. It was a do-able paper. Anything that i do not know as my own fault coz i din study enough. But.. i did leh. I studied the most for this paper. In fact i only studied for this paper. The problem is that, i realised that things take longer to get through to my brain. Poor bioavailibity of the information? Probably.... So anything that i studied did not get through. But it is not really my fault leh. There were hell lot of things to study. I predicted that they can give different questions every year and the questions can last for 10 years. The only thing i want to complain about the paper is the first section. The lecturer said got 6 true/false questions. BUT he never say each qn got sub-parts. In the end, i did a total of 24 questions. Felt so cheated after the exam.

Today's paper sucked. Out of 3 calculations questions, i only know that 1 is correct. The second one i think is wrong and the last one i hope is correct coz i think i got a weird ans. And out of 5 essays to do, minus the calculation question, i only know hot to do like 2? The other 20 marks i crapped my way through. Do not think the crap made sense. And out of the remaining 8 short questions that i have to do, i only know how to do like 6? Sigh... i hope i am not the worst... pray for the best.

Cancer in 3 more days. Shit lah.. that one oso very terrible. My god.. I am looking forward to next thurs!! exams are over!!

how to deal with exam stress?

BLOG! yes... and what do you do when you do not have anything to blog about? You start posting bo-liao photos. I was looking throught my photos and found some of these photos that i wanted to blog abt but somehow they failed to make their way to my blog. So here they are:

Talking abt exam stress, my fren's bf very sweet. Bought her giant pockey to relieve her stress. i am so jealous. But i decided to console myself that my bf oso very sweet. He gave me this candy stick during christmas after we had a big fight. But i din managed to get it from him until very long later coz he passed to my juniors to give me but i wasnt' at the new year dinner.

Instead of studying, I was out having lunch with my friends. We went PS to have high tea buffet. It was at this place called 老北京. I thought the food was just alright and it was a bit ex to pay 18 for so little variety. But there were some interesting stuff about the place.

First, they have a super authentic looking menu. Looks like some manual right?

The food of the day. My friends they all keep taking plates after plates of it. I refused to eat it. You know why? Coz it those 三cen肉. So fattening....

The next interesting thing was the popiah. We got to make them ourselves. haha.. so fun. Everytime at home its always my aunt making it for me. This time i got to try on my own.

The ingredients come in such a tray. So we get to mix everything we want of dun want together.

My popiah in the making. Found anything missing? haha.. yar.. the vegetable is missing. I did not see it on the table until i have finished putting my bean sprouts.

Yeah! Presenting to you.. my completed popiah. Taste good and look good too right?
Some random photos...

One day in school, 3 silly girls decided that they want to eat cup noodles. So here we are, with 3 bowls of cup noodles and a packet of soup. yummy.. but better not let mummy see.. she is going to nag me for not taking care of myself again...This girl is the sis of a student in the class next door on Mondays. haha.. she is very cute right? So pretty with such big eyes. Look a bit like a cartoon character hor?The cutest child in the world. My cousin! He is so funny. We were playing badminton at the court and he took the racket and play guitar. Elvis in the making...

Fish & Co

After some discussion, we decided to meet for dinner to celebrate Sharon's birthday on Saturday. Initially planned on a lot of places but in the end we went to PS and eat Fish & Co. And the attendance was pretty impressive. There were a total of 14 ppl wor! and 6 guys! (Fyi, my clique only have girls and there are 15 of us, including one in US now) At first we wanted Sharon to bring her bf along coz we nv see him b4. Den she wants us to bring all my bfs along so he wun feel so weird. Initially i tot only km coming. In the end, everyone's bf came!! including mine. haha.. thanks dear! He do not usually go out with my friends. So sweet of him to go with me. *muack* love you.. i gotta thank Citibank too. Without his credit card and the free drink at Fish & Co, he probably wun come.

Anyway, back to the food, very long never eat Fish & Co liao, still taste as nice as ever. BUT, i really wonder what's wrong with some ppl. They simply wun get fat. I eat the way they do, i cannot fit into my clothes in one week. After Fish & Co, Jo complained she still not full. Mind you, she and her bf shared a seafood platter for two. Usually i eat tt with hz i always cannot finish the food. And after dinner, Xiling suggests that we go Gelare and I had ice cream while Jo ate waffle! OMG.. she is a cow.. with 7 stomachs. haha..

As usual, there was a lot of photos. haha.. Xiling bluff Sharon she never took the photo of her bf kissing her. But actually she was taking a video. wahahaha. But it was so sweet. Her bf was so sporting. I decided not to post the photo here to save her the embarassment. Anyway, Xiling was trying to take a photo of me and hz but the camera simply would not focus. There was a total of 9 blurred photos taken. haha.. it was so funny. We were like the models of the day. Finally Duan Bao managed to find a way to get the camera to focus and got a photo of us.

Anyway, here are some photos of the evening.

Everyone were patiently waiting for the food. The place was freezing cold and I was super hungry....

Presenting to you, the couples...

Finally, my dear and me. I still thought hz was very sweet. hehe.. thanks darling!
Besides couples, we have some les for the night too. Presenting to you... the not so straight ppl..

The 9 blurred photos. None of them would focus. If only they can. Coz i think some of the photos might turn out quite nice.
The first focused photo taken for the night. The girls. Yu Lei was so happy that she can stand at the back coz she was wearing heels. The ultimate winner was still Sarah coz her heels were real high...
The gentlemen of the day. What a wide variety of colours.. haha..
Table shot of everyone. Mitchell was the chairman of this dinner. This dinner looks like some match-making with so many couples. haha..
There's xiling posing proudly with her ice-cream. Her bf like to disturb her. Got another photo oso but i was too ugly in the photo so i decided not to post it. hehe....

Jo's waffle. Actually look quite nice hor? I am really surprised with the amount of things that she can eat. Amazing. And she finished her waffle even faster than i finished my waffle basket.

Last day of school before the exams...

Looking back over what i have written over the past one month, i realised that i haven been updating very often. Cannot really blame me for not updating. I am so much reports and assignments to hand in that i nearly went mad with reports. Here I am, still suffering from the after effects of lab reports and exams are already coming! omg.. shit...

anyway, this week is the first week that i do not have to hand in any reports and last week, we had a little celebration in school. Haha.. no lah.. actually it was to celebrate Chew Hwee and Sharon's birthday. We had a funnily decorated cake by Xiling and XinYing. And Jo was too stressed she had some alcohol with py in school and looked like a lobster after that. We had a lot of photos as usual and we even recorded a super long video for Grace. Hope that she will get the video soon.

Here's some photos.

The "ugly" cake. Saw the mess at the bottom of the cake. Its supposed to be S for Sharon and Q for Qiuhui. They kept remind sharon that its not SQ for Siqi.

Saw the very short stick? The birthday girls are supposed to pick them up. Not too hard right? (",)

Here's sharon making a brave attempt.

And that's chew hwee. Great job girls!

Caught in the act. Jo with her "apple juice".

Me as the cake girl. As usual.

Look grace! We left a pc of cake for you. But since you cannot have it, sharon finished it for you.

Group photo! But we are missing anne and grace...

Exams are here!! But they will be over in no time. Hang in there girls!

Some photos...

Okay okay.. here are the photos that i promised.. i took more than 1 week to post all of them and its not a lot of photos. Its so hard to post photos on blogspot. if anyone found a better and faster way, please let me know ok? thanks!

My trip to Biopolis
The first thing which we saw that tells us that we are on the right track. Don't you think the word "Biopolis" is a bit too small? And do not think the 3 figures are quite dumb, they are actually made up of all the different buildings in biopolis. Look at the map and you will understand.

That's me with the biopolis as the background. Dresscode for the day was smart casual and there are still people who turned up in jeans and three-quarters. Luckily this photo cannot see me very clearly. I think i look weird in the photo.

The map of biopolis. There are 7 buildings altogether. Namely, Proteos, Nanos, Matrix, Centros, Chromos, Helios and Genome.

This is actually found at the bottom of the map on top. It tells you what each building has and from there, you can basically guess what is each building doing.

The Matrix building. It was where our seminar was held.

This should be the first thing that anyone notice the moment they walked into the building. But apparently all 3 of us were cocked-eyed. We only saw it during the break. Can anyone guess what does each picture represent? Each picture represent each of the building in biopolis. Bio students should not have a big problem guessing. Esp biomolecular trained students.

Have you guessed it? Here are the answers...

Another very impressive thing in the building is this DNA structure. Its built to perfection, with each atom in the DNA structure accurately represented. Including the different bases. And we found something amazing. Even the different number of hydrogen bonds are represented! Here's the CG triple bond. Look out for the white circles. Of the bond is behind the pole.
This is more obvious, the AT double bond.
A simpler and more elegant DNA structure that could be found on nearly every level of the building.
Welcome to BioBiz 2006!

The auditorium where the talk was held. Very cozy chairs.. i feel asleep for 2 hrs during the seminar. Even the toilets are very pretty. Look at the signs of the toilets they are also made up of the different buildings in the place.
They even have handicapped toilets. Do not anyhow use wor.. later get complained..

My very tasty doughnuts

After the seminar i went to meet hz at orchard and i bought tasty doughnuts home. Very pretty packaging hor? But cannot buy too often, very 心痛 coz its quite ex..

The IT show

After a busy weekend for biobiz, its the IT show. And i bought my printer. Sooooo happy. I have long wanted a colour printer... and now i got a three in one.

That's the trolley i used to bring it home. Luckily got this trolley. If not dunno how to bring 3 printers back home...

My printer in the original casing. I am now the proud owner of a Epson Stylus CX4100.

Everything that was contained within the package. There! Its comfortably housed on my computer table. I took a very long time to decide where to put it. It was a lot bigger than i expected...
