Today, me and wei guang went to the buona vista posb bank to open a joint account for emed. Yvonne accompanied us to transfer the closing balance into our account. As usual, i was early. But the two of them were very punctual as well. For once, i did't have to wait for more than 5 min. The rest of the trip wasn't that nice though. The three of us started off by queueing at the wrong counter, and we were told that only when it was our turn. Great!! all the time wasted on queueing for nth. Then, during the application process, the lady actually asked us if we are single or married. I understand that it's part of the procedure. But it just feels so weird being asked this qn when you are opening a joint account with a guy...

i almost flooded the lab today. We did a reflux reaction with benzyl benozate. I was supposed to connect one of the tubes to the tap and another tube drain to the waste. But being the blur queen, i connected both to the taps, causing a back pressure. This resulted in a mini rainfall for my bench...haiz...looks like i'm really not gd at lab work...

Yesterday's practical was quite fun. We used the different emulfiying machines to make emulsions ( hopefully the emulsions will turn out better than the suppositories ). For a moment, i thought that i have stepped into a kitchen. There's the blender, mixer and measuring cup. I also saw this huge measuring cylinder, probably the largest measuring cylinder that i've seen so far in labs. =）

昨天，家里发生了怪事。早上，冲忙之中，我把手机落在家里了。可回到家时，爸跟我说他收到了我发的一个简讯。 我纳闷了。我手机都忘了带，那里发得了简讯?! 我立刻拿手机出来检查一边， 发现在1149时分，我的手机确实发了个“on my way" 的简讯。我问了妈和小妹，可他们俩都没动我的手机。见鬼了！那我的简讯是谁发的?!

昨天和伟律他们庆祝了我的生日。不意外的， 我们又去了kbox。值得一提的是，an ee 的进步好快哦！从以前只能静静的坐在一旁听我们唱，到今天的主动点歌唱歌，而且还唱得有模有样呢！他的秘诀呢？每天看3小时的you tube =）
我收到的礼物挺特别的，是个鸭子的tissue cover。

可爱吧？可惜我桌上已经太乱太乱了，连书本和笔记本电脑都没什么地方放，所以只好收起来了。

后来，我们就到angus的家打麻将。 由于我们都是生手，所以就随便玩玩。 我的运气还不错，赢了几盘...

Selamat Sore!!
I had my first tutorial for Bahasa Indonesia this morning. Found the class quite fun and interesting. But Ibu Luciawati speaks really fast and i had some difficulty catching what she's trying to say. I'm amazed that some of the guys in my class can actually respond to her questions when i'm still busily flipping my buku to look for answers. But tt's like the minority =)
Favorite vocabulary of the day - "O begitu"


Today's dosage form design prac is absolutely horrible. The suppositories that we made last week looked quite nice on the exterior but none of them can pass the tests. Our theobroma oil suppositories simply just refused to disintegrate within 30min. Polyethylene glycol suppositories cracked and gave a wide range when tested for mechanical strength. And the glycerinated gelatin suppositories failed the test for uniformity of weight. Haiz...
conclusion: Me, Siew Han and Janet cannot go into manufacturing...
