I feel over-worked. Feeling a little nausea right now... I have been working from monday to sunday, everyday. Hope i don't fall sick, there's still a long way to go in order to achieve good lab results and hopefully publish a scientific paper of a certain calibre.
Because i am working 7 days a week and almost 10 or more hours a day, i feel like i have no social life. Haven seen any of my friends lately. After a day's work i don't have any energy to take the extra effort to contact any of them. Feel a little guility about it. But once i tide over the busy period, i will definitely start contacting my circle of friends again.
But i have this bad feeling that its only gonna get busier to the extent that i may have to camp overnight there. Sigh!

Rise and shine...
Rise and shine... woke up early on a Sunday. Haha i think its true that you sleep less as you get older. As usual, this week was busy again, having to return to work on saturday even. Thats why i am only blogging today. Somehow i do enjoy being busy with work than having nothing to do... i am a workaholic hee:P
Its been 9 days since my parents depart for europe. I am missing them quite badly already. Hope they come back soon.
Besides i think that there was a reason for me landing up in this NUS lab (external FYP). I think god wanted me to see the other side of PRCs, especially when i am about to leave for beijing really soon. I use to kinda get really irritated with their behaviour. Therefore, i started sterotyping most of them. However, my times in this lab filled with PRCs proved me wrong. They are just like us in anyway. I probably thought they were unfriendly initially as they were not fast to warm-up to people. But once you know them, get to work and talk to them, they are really just like any other person that you will befriend readily. ... Anyway, i am not saying that ALL of them are like these nice friends i met in the lab. Rude and bashful people exist everywhere, in any race and demographics. So your really can't generalise. People are essentially the same everywhere.
Talking about China, its sad to see the victims in the sichuan earthquake suffer. Its upsetting to see the death toll increase every day. Especially when the majority of deceased was little kids who still have a bright future ahead of them. Its even more devastating to see thousands of kids orphaned after this disaster. One can only imagine the trauma and the psychological problems they are and will be facing in the future. The only positive impact the disaster had on china is probably how everyone came together and work relentlessly to save lives and allievate suffering conditions. It was definitely a heart-warming sight to see a country and its people unite in the face of adversity. This is what i call compassion.
On the other hand, the myanmar cyclone disaster does not seem to be doing as well. Politically wise, they are in a mess with ultra-corrupted leaders pocketing the donations to help the victims of the disaster. SERIOUSLY, i cannot understand why these leaders can be so GREEDY, SELFISH and so LACK OF BASIC COMPASSION! Their people are suffering like hell and dying every minute and all they can do is to pocket the "life-saving" money. How can someone be so cruel? People like them plus that idiotic dubai guy who swallowed the NKF donation funds
piss me off totally. Corruption is already disgusting enough, corruption that takes advantage of the victims, the needies and the poor is unforgivable. I believe in karma and i believe in retribution. These people will live a terrible life with the sins they have committed and they will have a terrible ending.
Okay enough of stuffs that boils my blood, and back to my life. I am so sian that most my english tv dramas have reached their finales. The next season only starts on august or september. Meanwhile i will have to suffer withdrawal symptoms of the lack of my fav shows haha. SO SIAN!!!
Okay signing off... breakfast time!!!

Colleagues at my FYP lab
We took a group photo on my 4th day of work haha. Felt weird for me as i barely know them while all of them knew one another for ages. But they were all very nice people in their own ways:)
Night out at MOS
Haha this post is a little late. I think the night out at MOS happened before my exams... its probably already 2 months. But whatever it is i still like to upload my blog with pictures taken that night. It was quite fun, i had a pretty good time. It was NUS cultural club's night of performance. I went because shiqi was performing a solo that night. I think shiqi had the best performance that night and the others were just not worth my money haha. Kudos to shiqi... i knew she could sing but i didn't know she could sing that well haha.
Old pictures
I found these old pictures of me and my brother when we were young.
Although we use to fight alot in our childhood days, he was my only sibling and companion that i grew up playing childhood games with. So now, when i am older, (even though we still fight), i am so glad for having a brother like him in my life haha:). I love looking at these pictures haha.
Moments in time
As happens sometimes, a moment settled and hovered and remained for much more than a moment.
And sound stopped and movement stopped for much, much more than a moment.
And then the moment was gone.
And sound stopped and movement stopped for much, much more than a moment.
And then the moment was gone.
Someone, Somethings, Sometime
Someone trying to find their way.
Someone trying to find their place.
Someone trying to find their self.
Sometimes it seems like you are the only one in the world who is struggling, who is frustrated, or unsatisfied, or barely getting by. But that feeling is a lie.
And if you just hold on, just find the courage to face it all for another day, someone or something will find you and make it all okay.
Because we all need a little help sometimes. Someone to help us hear the music in the world, to remind us that it won't always be this way.
