I couldnt wait till Friday.
I couldnt wait till Friday that I returned home on Thurs. Home sweet royal majestic home. =D
Though Ive prepared 2 samples on Wed; one for Thursday experiment and the other for Friday. Guess I'll just have to discard it *shruggs*
To u my dear FYP, i'll get back to u when Im a lil bit stronger.
Im sorry I just couldnt take it being so alone in a house.
Like I said, perhaps when Im a lil bit stronger ok? =)
FYP now is more manageable. More bearable. Coz I have more control. I plan, we discuss and I do. Now thats better. I really hate those times when I had to do whatever's being instructed. Ive no control at all. U plan, I do. U plan I do. That was really horrible.
I didnt have any freedom for my holidays. So this time round... yeaaaaaah~ pls dont destroy it pls. =)
It feels good when I came to lab, and saw some other MSE mates in lab doing fyp too. Well atleast I know Im not alone. Im not the extra one who works hard during the holidays. Everyone just have to go through this super-heavy-time-consuming-mind-cracking-load for a year.
Whatever it is, I believe I should stop complaining coz it wont bring any good. It'll just make the mind hate sch so much. And when the mind has hated it so much, I tend to reject and everything will just go from bad to worse. Ive learned to accept hardship and believe that one day.. one fine day...I will see the light. Allah will help me, I know.
"Fainna ma'al 'usri yusra. Inna ma'al 'usri yusra" =)
Knowing that lab is a 'errgh-malasnye-nak-pergi' kind of thing, Ive learned to seek joy from little2 things that happen around me when I have to go to lab. First thing first, smile to everyone, including those who u dont know along the way. U'll be surprised by how many return smiles u'll get. Its very amusing. Next, greet those who u know. little2 chats like "hello" and "gd morning" will just lift that sorrows away.
U know, talking to the makcik who sweeps the lab floor never fails to amuse me. I can go on and on telling her how tired I am, how irritating these people around me are, etc, etc.. (now I have more makciks as friends in the list lol)
Moms always say "Dont talk to strangers". But u know, sometimes talking someone u dont know can be nice too. I tried talking to this person nxt to me in bus. I learnt that he was from Sri Lanka. He's here as a visiting researcher. Had his masters in NUS 10 yrs ago. Has a wife and son. And so on, and so on. Its amazing coz it was just a bus ride from NTU to Pioneer and I knew so much (put aside if its trustable or not k)
And part of the conversation, I was telling him whats my fyp is all about, and guess what? He told me that silver nanoparticles is used for water treatment n such n such. Now I wont go in details abt my fyp, but but but my point is, my point is, u never know if the stranger next to you is someone knowledgeable. Now ive one more point to search about for my lit review for my report. If its find-able and understandable, then all thanks to him. =)
Another amusing factor isnt it?
Talk about report, I met a friend in lab last Thurs and he told me that his group of friends have started and are already halfway through the report. They did all the lit review stuff and now they only left with the experimental data and analysis. I was like "ahhhh?? aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh??!?!??!!"
Now what have I been doing??
Just what have I been doing... . . . . .
:(
Rmb ppl, find joy in little2 things around you. U'll be someone happier =)
nite!
