"Corn 1 to HQ, reporting in!"
Here's a shout out to my cornrade, Corn 2!
"Corn Salute!"
Thanks for the picture, Corn 2!
Don't pop now, all this crap will be over soon.. Hang in there, corn support!
On a side note, 6 weeks down! 14 more to go! I seriously hate doing MP.. Totally brain dead from writing the proposal..
Yesterday, we went to watch Max Payne at Plaza Singapura! Small gathering with Amanda, Isaac, Mark, Michelle and Ke Wee.. Gosh..miss them alot lol..
Well, we had an evening snack at some dim sum place located at B2 before the movie. Thanks to Mich and KW for coming earlier just cause I was retarded enough to read the clock wrongly and arrived at PS a whole hour earlier..
(Though I have a feeling that Mich only wanted to arrive earlier so she could eat -.- )
Movie was interesting..didnt do the game much justice but heck, its hollywood we are talking about. Luckily we stayed till after the credits to watch the 30sec preview of Max Payne 2. Next was a walk to The Cathay and a tour around the first floor before heading back to PS for dinner at Xin Wang Cafe. Wasted a few minutes going up and down on the escalator due to miscommunication LOL.. Apparently it wasnt the only miscommunication that night..we had another round of escalator merry-go-round at the carpark.. Well, ate alot of stuff at Xin Wang Cafe. No pictures though..silly Manda didnt press the store button after taking the pics. haha.. But, thank you all for the great evening!

Shit sky lol.. Alright, that was a bad pun.. Its Pu Tien...A resturant somewhere near Serangoon..They serve great food! The rice cakes are especially yummy! It was a dinner with relatives..well, there were only 10 of us.. The main purpose was to bring my maternal grandma out for a dinner. My cousin, being a spontaneous organizer, put together the outing and the rest of us cooperated to make it work. I hope my grandma enjoyed herself..it must really suck to be stuck in the same house with two ungratful grandchildren..(Its not me! I swear!)
Here's a lowdown on the gastronomic experience..
Cant remember what is this..but it tastes good!
Lychee Sweet Sour Pork and Three Egg Spinach
This is the famous Rice Cakes. I couldnt resist and ate some of it before remembering to taje a picture..
Claypot..Sea cucumber, mushrooms and brocoili..(First time that sea cucumber doesnt taste slimy..)
Fried mantous with the pork and onion filling. (If only there's curry crab...)
Sweet and Sour (or is it Spicy?) Fish. (And that's my aunt! =) )
The more than half eaten Deep fried Duck with Yam. (By the time it came round to me, thats all thats left T_T )
And for dessert, Ice Cream with Pumpkin Paste. This one is utterly sumptious..
Well, all in all, it was an enjoyable day with relatives..(A first LOL)
5 weeks down..15 more to go.. We are 1/4 through with SIP! WHEEEEEE! Well, I finally got my MP title on the 9th of October. And synopsis was dued on the 10th. Being such a genius, I churned out a 242 word synopsis in less than 24hrs. Dr Dan (The vet incharge) only edited one little fact and send me on my way to submit. WOOTS! I amaze myself sometimes. (Okay, most of the time =P )
Jomer is stressed out. He is so lame. He actually replied my email saying that he is saddened that I did not burn the lab down...
Went to Rouge Outdoors Cafe yesterday.. Their portion of wedges is HUGE. Think 4 potatoes...The wings were not as crispy or tasty as No.5 but it will do.. No.5 was completely packed that night.. T_T (I want my martini!)
Fuzzy Navel (Their drinks have weird names..) This one is orange juice with absolute..
Watermelon Martini (I didnt order this...)
Cosmopolitian (This one is nice!)
The drinks werent too bad..not as nice as No.5..the food was pretty good too.. Their garlic bread is organic lol..And the price..Major Ouch. $98+ for two..yikes..

Its been a month since. 1 month in STC..thats 4 weeks..or 20 working days.. Hmm..feels much longer though..Or perhaps its the sense of familarity..Work has been kind..very few samples. On good days, we get 9, on bad days only 1. Oh well..that leaves me with more time to read yahoo news and listen to the radio if I'm done reading the operator's manual (which I'm usually done within a few hours). Talk about extreme boredom..even this post sounds draggy.
Allow me to introduce, Bella. She's a stable cat who belongs to one of the trainers, David Hill's daughter. The stable is pretty close to the lab but strangely, Bella always comes by every morning for food..
Well, I learnt a painful lesson..doesnt mean that a cat rolls onto its back does it mean you can touch its belly.. Bella scratch me slightly and still gave me a high paw..Fortunately, no harm done LOL. She was just playing with me.
Nice canopy eh..This is the road leading to the lab. Further ahead are some of the trainers' stables.
Blk 30 lab. See how isolated it is...
To think that I'll be alone in the building for 2 weeks while my supervisor goes on her honeymmoon..I hope there will be another intern. Muhahaha.
Well, I was born on this date 19 years ago. Feels much longer than that.
P.S.: Only well wishes in cash are accepted. =D
