I think it's the best DnD i've ever attended for NUSWS. It's fun, and geekily interesting. Ideas were creative. me yokes and yyk thought of the questions for Geek pageant! haha. but i think cos it's towards the end of the event, so nobody bothered with the questions already. SAD! :(
oh and the lucky draw was in a BINGO style. creative hor? haha. i won the ahem... 20th prize. snacks. haha. ok la, better than nothing :P oh ya, me yokes and yyk helped in shopping for the lucky draw prizes too! haha.
oh enjoy the pics. I purposely buy a geeky specs for $12.90 at 77th Street at Jurong Point one. Quite nice. But i dunno whether i'll be wearing it again. Still like it, cos it completes the geeky image! hahaha.

8 May: MOF with Eupho/Tuba (actually is 1 eupho + 3 tubists) Moral of the story: the $5 Cha Soba is a meal by itself. :P Had potato salad too, but din include inside this collage :)
It was REALLY a spread! A feast suitable for 大胃王 contest. imagine this amount x3... plus desserts which is mango pudding or honeydew sago and yes... i took both desserts :P haha!
My clique (minus Hua who only photosynthesize)
Future AH-ers. HALF STRENGTH!
Group shot (Sze Guan is the only guy and i think he ate the least)
Heng later after the dim sum, i shopped. and after that jio Joaling to run again. But the dim sum was still super heavy in our stomach! So difficult to run! around less than 3km...
Last few days of lects liaoz. dun pon Natural Products lect liaoz la. hahaha..
anw, i'm going to run in Singapore Passion Run. Women's 10km Open. together with LC, yinting and yokes. DanK and Nick are running in Men's 15km.
not very impressive leh. hahaah. maybe really have to try a 2nd and 3rd time to get addicted to it. haha :P
some overdued random pics from the holidays:
ARX bday. duno y only chris is in it. haha
Weixin said "你会不会觉得那个画面很满?" :P
SPIZZA~~!
and SPIZZA~~. this is ultimate. the egg damn messy after that.
the biological safety cabinet which i do my cell work at.
========================
a chilly true story which i heard from my mum today. duno whether it's correct to post here, but it disturbed me for the whole bus ride when we were going home.
my mum said she had a "colleague" who worked in the same building (colleague as in different companies but same building). she was pregnant but came to office one day and her babies (ultrasound showed twins) were gone. she was crying. and the only thing that happened was that she dreamt that she delivered. and then, it was gone when she woke up. the doctor cannot give her an explanation too. what he could do was just to gif her a week of MC.
My whole weekend is spent on Pharmacy Practice III, the module which is worth 2MC (cos it's split into 2 sems)... My group agreed that since each week something has to be done, we'll allocated a person to each case each week. So it started with me and Siew Jin. Me with the Herpes case and Siew Jin with the asthma case.... and i seriously think that the Herpes case is not as simple as it looks. suddenly i found info that simvastatin has effect on liver enzymes and i've to steer the role play away from Hep C (at least only say that it's POSSIBLE Hep C) arghh... that stupid character in the case is so 恶心.... got Herpes and chronic Hep C still go and 乱搞 and then worse still, he has depression and hyperlipidemia... [ermz, i apologise u've to take PR4104 to understand all these haha]
i spent the whole weekend doing it la! looking for information, piecing everything together, and do up a role play. then still have to send it to everybody and get their comments/edit. and then piece everything together again by Tuesday meeting/role-play rehearsal...
i swear the Pharmacy dept wants to kill us. It's only the first week. And i'm sure things will get piled up along the way.
then, when i finished email-ing my group and not wanting to start looking at their comments yet, i looked at the drug i'm supposed to do for my drug info sheet (same module). I'm supposed to write up on "Mag Trisilicate Co Tab"... I noe wat's "mag trisilicate" and "tab" but wat the hell is "co".... grrrr... looks like it's some co-precipitate but wat is it "co-precipitating" with?! looks like i'm going to head down to guardian tmr, pretend to be a patient and ask the pharmacist...
okiez.. i admit i'm whining.. but i'm PEK CEK.... haiz...
===============================================
Some other stuff
Some updates which i did not blog about:
1. yokes' surprise party: the more surprised she was, the happier I am. good plot, good acting, good food by BBQ wholesale, and i think the "planning committee" rock :P but unfortunately, Nick kena bitten by CRAZY ants at pit D38 which precipitated an ant allergy in him for 1 week, and that was 1 week of fever and sore throat for him. weird right?! and Cloud, pls finish collecting the $$ soon heh!
2. Sch reopening. got my FYP topic. dunno whether i shd be happy or sad. can i click with the staff at the BTI lab after the PBS/Tween incident (i did not blog abt this too)? met my sup, she kept emphasizing that she's here cos of admin purposes. i duno how i shd feel.
3. decided that i'll do Pharm Prac IV instead of Pharmacokinetics/Toxicology... i think i'll go into practice first after i graduate (more abt this later).. got overwhelmed by workload (pharm prac III especially)
4. ate at Waraku and bowled. Waraku was great! the pizza especially! and i ordered Seafood Croquette with meat sauce pasta. shared dessert with Erina. Tiramisu! realised that all the ice creams were the same, just that the toppings were different. But the surprising thing was there was cornflakes at the bottom (i quite like it). Overall, food was good, but very expensive hah! spent $27 (with a 10% using DBS/POSB card).
Bowling was okay. first game was thrashed by Z-x. But in the 2nd game, I won the rest except Z-x la! haha... i was quite happy :P hehe... cos it was the 2nd best game (in terms of score) in my life so far haha. the best one was in Genting with Jiemeiz. hehe...
5. I think i sort of decided on what to do in the future (from point number 3). I realised that I wasn't THAT keen on research. and research really require the ultra passion to drive through the late nights and upaid OTs. and I lack this amount of passion. I realise that I enjoyed my Jurong Polyclinic attachment more than my BTI one. maybe because it's shorter and company was better. but i like dispensing and talking to patients, and sometimes trying to speak in some dialects. haha! Now, I want to be like Dr Grant Sklar, to be able to work in the morning doing rounds with doctors in NUH, and then teaching in NUS in the afternoon. [but that also means, i need a PharmD, i.e. study for 2 or more years] I hope to be like that in the future!!!
and of course, i need music too! hehe
6. Cello internal assessment was over and the results were out. I thought i did better in the pieces than my scales/sightreading. but ALL OF THEM SUCK. haiz. just pass. 17/30... better buck up for the real exam! [do i have enough time?] Actual exam: Date: 6 Sep 2007 (Thur) Time: 1605 hrs Venue: Young Musician Society Auditorium --> means i've to skip 2 lectures... ARGH! haha... *prays hard*
7. i'm going to Cheer Chen concert! currently on repeat mode: 嫉妒
Actually heard HC's recording 1 day before the competition, ok la, i did not want to expect too much because the judges this year was much stricter. so the day started with me being late to queue up with the rest of them, reached at 7.45am but thanks to Daniel Kang and Xinhui we were at the head of the queue! WOOHOO! HAHA...
think i wun want to comment too much on the other bands, so just talk abt HCJC which was quite a shaky gold or silver standard. the tempo for the 1st fast section was very fast, so i guess that's why the band was ver unsteady. but the tonguing was quite clear & good, for such a fast tempo :) yay! haha. only 1 tubist, think he is so super stressed la. haha. den the harp was a good investment too! hehe (i think the JC kopped it from the high school HAHA) then there was a contrabass clarninet too, which helps to ease the tubist's stress haha. apart from the unsteady 1st fast part, i think the rest of the piece was ok. Sunrise sounds safe after the starting notes which had some tuning probs. OVERALL, THE BAND DID WELL! and HCI (college) got GOLD. yay! good work! and think leng must be super relieved now that the previous silver is now followed by a gold medal. and i heard that most of the CCAs in HCI got gold with hons... crazy school HAHA.
i think VJC did very well. ACJC and SAJC too! i wan to go to finals sia HAHA.. YJC improved alot! overall, this year JC SYF is a good show. :)
============================
Nick's bday celebration at Glasshouse Fish & Co.
so after SYF, we brought Nick to Paradigm Infinitum where we ordered Settlers' of Catan cos the game was out of stock in the whole of sg when I checked at PI, Mind and Settlers. think the game would come in 2 weeks later, at least PI would help to help us order heh (i tink Mind and Settlers bought their games from PI too HAHA)
after that, headed to Glass house.
Seafood platter for 2: share with Yokes
Birthday cake: Ali volunteered to bake, cheese cake! nice!

4May: met PK for cello/piano practice at CFA --> met Pearlyn at CFA to discuss air tickets --> went Serangoon Gardens to eat Watermelon sorbet with Yokes, Cloud and PK.
Cloud was kind enuf to help me with the cello as we took 3 buses to Serangoon Gardens, and found that there was no more watermelon sorbet -_- but we still ate ice creams to our fill after eating at Chomp Chomp.
the full moon i took on my way home - NICE! it was supposed to be cloudy with the full moon in the middle but my lousy cam phone din show the clouds..
