disgusting lab partner

this is soooooo irritating.

my lsm lab partner (bleh) magically dropped the vial of TOXIC dye she was holding onto the ground and the dye got on my shoes and jeans. and somehow it missed her.

she didn't apologise. she didn't help to clean the mess on the floor. she just stood there.

and (i know this sounds petty, but whatever) she keeps using my correction tape, eraser w/o even asking. it's nothing much, but it pisses me off.

hate her, hate her, hate her.

hope Coomassie brilliant blue isn't very toxic...

CNY lunch at woonz's house

难得 we finally managed to meet up! =) i was sort of reluctant to go cos it's sunday and i usually return to hall on sundays but i think if i dun go then the next time we meet will be..hmm..in may?
anyway 兜了一大圈,after walking to 2 wrong bus-stops we finally made it to Woon Ling's house. Had a very full lunch (fondue--dunno how to spell--and steamboat) and then we played some cards. indian poker and power99, i think.. the penalty was to drink cups of water, which wasn't too bad, i guess. DUnno if it's luck or what, but my cup was dry when they decided to switch to monopoly. Which I won ^_^ hahaha... all thanks to woon ling who encouraged me to build the hotels....

CNY movie marathon

The Time Machine (watching for the second time..)
Über-Morlock: We all have our time machines, don't we. Those that take us back are memories... And those that carry us forward, are dreams.

《我家有只河东狮》(second time i'm watching this too...and at 1 am too..bleh)
陈季常:老婆,你会不会打我啊?

柳月娥:我为什么要打你啊?你又没有做错事,如果我真是要打你的话,那一定是你做错了事。

陈季常:那请问一下做错事的定义究竟有多广呢?

柳月娥:哦,很简单,那就是……从现在开始,你只能疼我一个,宠坏我,不能骗我,答应我的每一件事情都要做到,对我讲的每一句话都要真心,不许欺负我、骂我,要相信我,别人欺负我你要在第一时间出来帮我;我开心你就要陪着我开心,我不开心你也要哄我开心,永远都要觉得我是最漂亮的,发梦都要见到我,在你心里面只有我,就是如此而已……

Starsss

it's been very cloudy the whole day, but right now it's superb!

I saw Mars just now. I ran back and checked stellarium, and spotted a few others: Capella to the left, Betelgeuse to the right, a tiny star called Alnath slightly above and to the left of Mars, Sirius (!) and the Orion belt!!! Oh migod! I've never expected to see that here! The first time I saw that was at a Sembawang chalet when I was in sec 1 during the drama camp, the second time was during AstroBash, and tonight iis the third time!! I feel like just standing along the corridor and staring at the sky but I'd look weird to other people, I guess...

Sigh..starry starry...

Botanic Gardens

Grr it's really troublesome loading pictures onto this blog, which is why it took me so long. But Shuyu said it's quite easy, so maybe I'm doing it the wrong way.

So anyway, I tried to organise an outing because of Xiaowei's notes and failed quite miserably, as expected. I'm a poor organiser plus I don't hang out a lot. Anyway in the end I ended up visiting Botanic Gardens with Baoyun. Fresh air! Beautiful plants! BUT hot and humid weather PLUS it was pretty crowded because we went on New Year and there were lots of maid-Bangla couples around. Bleh...


Baoyun pretending to be a tourist

Me joining in

the waterfall. I didn't get to see the rainbow that I'd seen last time. Think it's bcos it was too cloudy.


Baoz in front of the waterfall. She wouldn't go into the cave after I told her there were droppings inside.


Our national flower -- Vanda Miss Joaquim. Haha I sudden recall there was this page in my pri sch maths workbook, you know you need to solve like 8=2=6 then u substitute a letter then eventually you'll get a word? One of the words was vanda miss joaquim! LOL

Nice flower

I forgot what this is called (really memory loss). I remember being very excited cos there were some scenes from 福满人间 shot here.

Baoz: 出淤泥而不染

Purple lily!

And then we visited the Orchid garden. It's my first time there. 以前总是因为要买票所以都没有去参观,but now I found out there's actually sth called student price..haha




像神农吗?(haha 气死 Baoz)



In the Evolution GArden...

A journey through time..





This tree was listed as a heritage tree. The flowers grow straight from the trunk, but we couldn't see any flowers that day.


Cactus

Whoa really spiky!


This is a really nice statue called "Passing of Knowledge".

We found the Sundial Garden which I missed the last time I was here. So excited!!! It all felt so familiar. I'd been here with my primary school friends on some learning journey. And it's really cool there are 4 Greek (i think) statues placed at the 4 corners. There is an inscription on the 4 sides of the column supporting the sundial: What you seeketh is a shadow. So cool!!! Like da Vinci code or sth


Actually the leaves were really brilliantly yellow, but as always, couldn't be captured.



Stefanie Sun has an orchid species named after her! Don't think it will sound nice with my name, though... :P






Another meaningful statue


The pitcher plant. We saw this in the Cool House (literally the coolest place in the entire Garden) in the Orchid Garden, does that mean it belongs to the Orchid family?



This was the last picture taken that day. Does this look like the clitoris plant we'd studied in Bio? Insect-pollinated.





























I HATE BIDDING!!!

Argh the time to bid for modules has come again. Hate it. Have to plan timetable, make sure nothing clashes, try to find someone to take the same module with, fulfil this and that requirement..argghhhhh!!! Sucks. And those modules that are not too bad have super high bid points.

Kind of makes you miss those good old days in secondary school. Although we keep complaining about the timetable, about how we have Chem lessons right after PE, how we have long breaks that result in long days... Now I've come to realise how tough a job it must have been for the Maths department.
