I've been downloading CHINESE songs! *gasp* *faint* heh. i think i have maybe 5 or 6 chinese songs now.. ROFL. It must be the conversation i had with jenny.. went to get 2 erm.. "grasshopper" songs.. and what's his name.. Jackie cheung? yeah.. 2 of his songs too. and this jap one.. don't ask. Please. just don't ask. it's only a few songs.. as long as i don't start having a huge collection of them ( or start singing along..), i'm still.. uh.. normal. As it is, i realized i dont understand half the lyrics to the chinese songs. Eep!... all those years of studying mandarin down the drain ( hey!~ it rhymes!) . I managed to get some M2M songs and Bananarama and Brian Mcknight and all. So my D/Ling session today wasn't too bad.

*ponders* meeting Eugene tomorrow. just for the afternoon though, coz i have something else on at night - i.e. a date with my halfdone genetics lab report. *beams* i like listening to M2M.. it soothes me. *gush* *cough* pardon the digression.

Went to subway with jenny ( again). you know, she was telling me about this guy she knew. About how his girlfriend would be pissed even if he just talks to another girl. about how.. "possessive" she was. Yet, she expected him to let her go out with whomever she wished.. and all the while i was thinking, " that sounds familiar!" i told jen just that and she thought about it, gave me a worried look and went, " I do that?!" to which my reply was, " no, I do." it's true.. i do. but before you go pitying melvin, i should let u knoe i have my.. uh, unreasonable reasons. *sparkle* i'm not gonna blog about it to the whole world though. my close pals knoe ( and they always tell me one thing which i shall not mention here either.) all in all, there's nothing wrong in being a jealous, possessive girl. In fact, the guy should be worried if his girl didnt even CARE if he was smooching with another. *shrug* depends on how you look at it i guess. ~bleh. what on EARTH am i blathering about?

snitched this survey from Lianne's blog.. oh btw, i got to class on time.. heh. today's lab was horrible though. everyone just pissed me off..
1) my lab partner and I were doing our OD at the comp, we diluted our DNA stuff so our reading was skewed. Wasn't supposed to dilute it apparently. but hell, that tutor told me to. then when i got there, the reading was skewed, so naturally i asked that guy over to clarify.. there was this one other group waiting to use the comp.. and this ASShole labtech was like," hurry up, next grp!" and he was coming in to move all our stuff.. and i was like, " we've only done OD for one. havent gotten to the blue colony sample yet." At that time, my tutor came over and said," oh.. you weren't supposed to dilute it.. try the second one.." then i said, " you JUST told me to dilute it barely 5 minutes ago.." then that ASShole labtech behind was like," Dont do your discussions here... just do it and go." and i was like thinking," WTF? not like we've been hogging the damn thing for 20 mins or half an hour. sides my readings are skewed. FUcking moron. not as if there's a long line of people waiting. bloody moron." of course i manged to grab hold of my senses and not say what i was thinking.. i DID glare at him and as i walked away i muttered something really mean. somewhere along the lines of "rushing for reincarnation aren't you?" .. in Chinese of course. fucking chinaboy.

2) Kay, then we were supposed to prepare 150mL of agarose gel for the electropherosis. So i did. and i used all 150mL for the cast.. then the tutor told me it was too thick.. at that point, i was like, " you told me LAST week to use all 150mL....." coz last week i only used 100mL and he said it was too thin.. sides, the instructions SAID 150mL... *mutters darkly* anyhow, after that, the girls in the other grp were loading the stuff into the wells ( like 2 groups to a gel...) and while they were doing it, they kept on complaining that it was too thick. i just got SO mad after that. i was telling them the instructions said 150mL and i only used all 150mL coz YOU guys complained last week that 100 wasn't enuff. If they wanted to use 100.999mL that's their bloody problem and THEY can do the gel next time, not like i ENJOY casting the agarose gel. i HATE it when people complain over nothing. ALL the other grps used the same volume, concentration etc.. so why aren't THEIRS too thick, ya knoe? why is mine too thick when i do the same as everyone else?

anyhow, as i was saying, the survey is right below.

Today's goal: to leave the place in 20 minutes so i can get to class on time.

For some reason or other, i've been playing 911 songs lately. Not sure if you guys remember them. Lee, Spike and jimmy.. *wrinkles nose* Jenny thought they were in code red or 98 degrees for some reason. *prods jen* its 911 jen! yeah.. Boybands i used to listen to.. in fact, i really DID like 911 alot. Just that i didnt find anyone to share my enthusiasm with... i mean, Lianne was still totally big on backstreet at that time.. and the environment i was in during my secondary school days.. *shudder* barely one out of twenty could speak proper english, much less listen to english songs. Anyway, Jenny and I were talking about bands/singers we used to listen to.. names that came up were 98degrees, 911, backstreet, emil chau (?), erm.. this chinese boyband "The little tigers" or something like that ( i was in primary school! it's forgivable..), Jimmy lin, code red, mariah carey ( i mean, she was cool, before she went mental..), and some others whose names i cannot remember right now. Ooooo.. right. anyone remember the Echoboys?! *laugh* our "tried and failed" local boyband. I think they released ONE single before they died and fizzled. I remember thinking ( at that time ) that they weren't TOO bad.. raw but not TOO bad, ya knoe. And i actually recorded that one song they coughed up - on cassette - yes, it was THAT long ago. a pity i have no idea where that cassette has gone to.. coz jen's never heard their song and well, yeah. i wanna see if she can listen to the whole thing without gagging. CHeesy sappy lyrics and all.

BAH. now i have TEN minutes to leave else i'll be late for lab. BAH. and my playlist still has 5 more songs.. maybe i should stay until the playlist is done.. then again, if i do, i'll be late. ( for some reason, that reminds me I really should buy a hands free kit soon.).. *throws hands up in air* i GIVE up! *deletes 3 songs from playlist* there. now i can be DONE with my playlist AND be there on time...

it's all psychological, i swear

it's been a pretty productive day ( for once).. i finished my chemistry lab report.. well yeah, like five minutes ago. and i got myself started on utopia once more.. *laugh* it's a silly game which i'm not exactly good at, but i play it when i get bored.

Let's see.. i have 2 concerts to go to next week apparently. Jen's dance gig next wed and the choir one next fri.. hmmm. Well, i can't back out of the friday one coz i've already done the ticket confirmation. i just dont have the cash to pay up as yet. heh. now... lemme try and find someone who would pay for it first.. and i'll return as soon as i get some cash. i mean, yeah, i have 20 bucks in my pocket and i dont get more cash till next erm... month. *wrinkles nose* anyone rich enough to loan me $32 first? ACK! Meng just told me she saw Prof Ali ( in bright orange jersey) and Prof lehming playing soccer with a huge bunch of profs. *shudder* i mean, i can imagine prof ali playing soccer.. but LEHMING? in a BRIGHT orange jersey number 7? oh GOD. *shudder* BAD image. BAD nightmare-inducing image.

I really should read up on my 2102 module.. hmm... yeah. i should. the test is in two weeks and i'm not even entirely sure what topics are being tested on. i'm midway thru chapter 1 of a very thick textbook... maybe i'll even FINISH that chapter today. *snort* i figured if i actually did half a chapter a day, i'll be prepared for the test when it comes on.. erm. 2nd march i think. then again, each chapter is VERY long.. 50pages approx, and there are MANY chapters... lets see.. there should be no less than 10. BAH. i'll go pack the room and continue with my downloading. and read that damn text, of course. I was talking to gary yesterday, and well, he said something that really made sense ( like DUH.. i've never heard him say anything that DOESN'T make sense ). so i better read up abit while i'm still motivated. *reaches for textbook* OOoomph.. heavy.....

The new layout will be up later today i believe. *grin* many thanks to Jenny for all her work on it. yes people, she did the page. i dont get any credit.. *laugh*

*sigh* had another horrible test today. So much so that it totally spoiled my mood for the whole day and I'm not even gonna attend class today. I really should though.. wonder if i should make a run to psych class.. i mean, it's at 2pm.. i still have time.. bah. but i've already arranged to meet Jen.. thing is i dont knoe when she's gonna be done with her stuff.. and if she wont be able to be done till 4, i may as well go for class.. i dont knoe. for some reason, i'm just.. *sulk* not in a very good mood. but then again, i'm seldom in a good mood. *sulk*
