Genes are composed of lotsa rubbish

What a title..but that was what my labmate told me today after I learned another life lesson yesterday..

What did I learn?
 --> Don't talk too much..and life's is always full of rubbish
--> DNA is full of useless things..just like our life...
--> nevertheless, some genes may look useless but it also may have some functions
--> Overall, life is still full of rubbish.

To be frank, I don't talk a lot to people unless those close ones.. but yesterday evening, I was teaching my so-called collaborator on the current project..and sharing knowledge on what experiments can be done

The consequence?
I bet you would probably have guessed it: I was told to perform those experiments..

To be frank, I'm really pretty angry because I find that those experiments can't contribute much to the people's health; other than to get more popular...

So contradicting eh?
Plus, time wasted can never be bought back. Really a hard lesson for me.
I was initially motivated to do their work. right now, I am really at the CBB mode.

On the other side, the st*lk*r is practically irritating me on a day-to-day basis..
From trying to talk a bit to a bit everyday to seeing the id*ot*c face during lunch

Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I think life's not that positive at the moment leh despite my trials of getting more positive like before..

Oh yeah, an update on a heart-to-heart talk with my mentor, and he actually advised me on something very personal... ---> jackpot hit!
All along we thought that he can't be bothered about that event (not disclosing here); but LOL he surprised me and we think that it could be due to his wife's recent roles... heehee

I'm just leaving a short note here for the sake of me reading in years to come (when I retire, most likely) and laugh or trying to recall what had happened earlier:P

Happy Labour's Day to all!!
I have to go to school though.....

Even a grass flower is special enough

I saw some lalangs today on the way to office place but it was too far to be captured with my phone..

It was on the school's field actually:D

Really pretty leh....

At that moment, I was enjoying the lalang's beauty as it may be cut off by grass cutter very, very soon..

Just like these flowers that I had been observing...

You probably would feel funny, but I really got very disappointed when these were cut off by the grass cutter:((

I have a collection of flowers taken while

I was on the way to school (like those partially uploaded here).

Lessons: The beauty of life can be found everywhere, and for free~ =)

Remember that, peeps!

One with photo caption because I was busy editing it with a newly downloaded phone app in the bus soon after photographing it... The rest... ---> lazy me:p

P/S: i really don't understand why the font types and sizes are always mixed up so unprofessionally when I blogged with my phone...and I've always have to synchronise it again with pc if I remember..pls pardon me if you see a mixture of fonts and sizes...after all, as long as it is legible..and can be deciphered...- you know what I mean..

So long~

Individuality..

The grass flowers are finally gone (yikes thanks to grass cutter) but this is what i found today:)

Someone told me that each flower is created differently, just like each special individual..

And this reminds me of the fact that each nose print on the dogs is unique too, that can be used to identify the dogs; just like our fingerprints.. 

Have a good weekend, people! 

P/s: recent meetups are all about recommending food to others..think I can switch to another career already:p

So long~

How many 5 years do we have?

Alrhough I personally much prefer the statement "how many 10 years do we have in our life?" ;

someone asked me on the 5-year billionaire question yesterday, and I hesitated.

My plant is about 4 years old in 4 months time...(I thought 5 coz this is my 5th year here..)

This plant had stood by me from thick to thin, up to down, inside out, waited for me when I go off for vacations, busy whole day in the lab or outside....

Okay nostalgic ones..

Okay okay, back to a more serious note..

How many 5 years do we have?

And, how many 5 years to make more differences in other people's life?

Do I dare to take up another challenge or this is it?

But the route is really, really a long, long one and I'm afraid that I cannot hold on any more... 

Lessons that I've been practicing: Live not to impress, but for ownself... 

Just like, we live to eat... 

=)

So long~

learning is a bliss..to me

Well, the title says it all;)

We visited a children's home today at Chen Su Lan Methodist Children's Home..
And the children did practically scare us (maybe me and C, and perhaps other volunteers) because they were really active and noisy.. And some, cheeky as well..
Lol
C was saying " No wonder my best friend didn't want to have children". I can see that this fella is afraid of children XP
Well, to be frank, after entertaining them, I felt really tired too... and was missing my dog miles away.
Concurrently, I felt bitter to see so many sort-of abandoned, without parents or some with certain backgrounds in which we have never encountered and should really feel thankful...

We were first briefed by their staff that the home's name was derived from Dr. Chen Su Lan; and his funds was also used in setting up this huge children place that currently holds 88 children.

First, it was ice breaking..holding hands in 3-somes and changing partners
The girls were really shy of the already-not-many-guys though..Anyway, it was pretty :) :) =D lah

Then, we went on to balloon sculpturing and I'm surprised that the cute poodle dog was quite well-made by C despite only learned a day eh..But I didn't manage to learn it completely because I was then non-stop entertaining other children in blowing and tying the balloons =.="
Anyway, I did overcome my slight fear of balloon popping..heehee
Repeat: learning is a bliss ah~!

Some other children that weren't comfortable with balloons were given the chance to colour. I handled one that started to play balloon and then decided to colour. She was quite 'guai' (obedient), and was asking my opinions to colour the dinosaur. I then drew a pig on her drawing paper so that she could colour it later as well. She even asked me if she could bring the colour pencils back to her room and I said yes. Reminded me of my previous experiences in MINDS...there was a girl who kept keeping the printed drawings in her pocket non-stop

Well, I should have brought my drawing blocks along but I was really late today..sigh
Late for quite sometime somemore... *embarassed but wasn't scolded heh heh...

But when it was finishing time, I felt it was really too short. The event lasted for only 2 h in fact. I left wandering on bus (didn't want to be back early since the day is still really early!) and decided to accomplish my next mission.....

Ta daaaa~

Finally!! :D
Actually, I was having some down moments since yesterday night and then this morning: due to a minor clash with my collaborator but it should be clear that it was neither any of his or my fault..
It was just a useless project...
But I felt really wasted of my time. Thankfully, I was doing another person's project at the same time or I would feel that that week was a total waste..7 days of non-stop late nights and working..plus two pushy emails... tsk tsk tsk...*shake head

Anyway, after spending hours in the music store, the rejuvenated feeling was really good. Though it would feel much better if that someone also stayed there..oh well...they had a very late night yesterday... :/

So long~

P/S: Listening to the songs now...wishing I have a very good audio system to blast it but..hmmmm
