前几个学期好像过得太轻松了。现在我才终于知道：药剂还真不是人学的。哪来这么多要背的东东啊？！左一个名称，右一个名称的。那些名称怎么看怎么陌生，弄得我头都大了。今天又拿到了共316页的drug monographs，想起来就头痛。咳，还真羡慕讲师们，他们的记忆还真是惊人嘞，随口就能说出个药名菌名什么的，似乎都难不到他们。看来我还有好多好多努力的空间...

A ZA!!

had my first microbio prac today. I thought staining would be easy but i was very very wrong. the first few staining methods are manageable. but i think most of us failed at acid-fast and spore staining (at least i didn't succeed. and my lab partners didn't as well). It's so difficult!! the stains kept washing away and we kept observing only one colour T.T But overall, the prac is fun. bacteria actually look quite cute under the microscope =p

pharmaco is hard. The concept is already quite difficult to grasp and yet the lecturer still goes through the notes damn fast. This is the first time i stepped out from the LT　without learning anything. No wonder he warned us that we would need textbooks. Right after class, i saw quite a few classmates rushing into co-op to buy textbooks. Guess i'm going to need one too...

But i really don't see the point why he has to rush through the lecture when he can afford to slow down to explain the pathways clearly to us. After all, the LT is booked for 2h. Why not make full use of it? 1h per lecture is definitely not enough....

I wanted to make myself useful. I wanted so much to help. But for the first time in my life, i'm powerless to do anything. The last time he came to visit,he already showed signs of hypersomnia and memory loss. That is abnormal. And yet i didn't realize. I was too busy avoiding and ignoring him. If only i had paid more attention....

Now, I can only hope that he will always recognise us...

星期六，我们一家到二表舅家里聚会。在那儿，我们见到了不久才来新度假的三表姨。由于时间尚早，大人们便聊起天来了，冷落了我和姚琦。唯一的小孩儿，tiffany，因为害羞，没跟我们玩。所以我们只好自己娱乐自己了。其实，我们和tiffany的关系还挺复杂的。她是我妈的二表哥的女儿的女儿。这样算的话，她的辈分比我们还小呢。时间差不多时，所有人便一起到楼下bbq了。虽然我不太喜欢烧烤，但我不得不承认，这次的食物还蛮好吃的。姚琦一口气还吃了六串台湾香肠呢！平时没的吃，这次可吃足了。不过，收获最大的还是tiffany，小小的肚子吃得滚圆滚圆的。我们忍不住取笑她，她就立刻把肚子吸进去说：肚子没有了。哈哈，真可爱...我们吃饱后，就动身回二表舅的家里。这时，我和姚琦已和tiffany混熟了。大人们聊天时，她就拿出了一大堆的洋娃娃和玩具和我们玩。不知不觉地，天黑黑了，我们得回家了。挺不舍的...

姚琦和可爱的tiffany

三表姨在我们家住了一夜后，今早离开新加坡了...

下午，我和wei lu看了《赤壁》下集，有点小失望。场面仍然很壮观，可是，历史稍微改了。有些情节还挺怪的，看得有点不舒服，尤其是小乔的部分。输给了一场风,败给了一杯茶?! 总的来说，还是上集比较好看。
