Haha.. dont think this format works for me.. I know my life now is kinda boring.. that just makes it look even worse! haha..
But in a nutshell, thats basically what I did today... I had to read a couple of chapters from this research book that my lecturer had asked me to, so I thought why not just go to Borders, get myself a drink and read the chapters.. and thats exactly what I did. People-watched for a few minutes as well.. just watching the world go by..
Watched Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince last night.. I actually enjoyed it.. Put a little magic, a little special effects, good sound effects and a couple of wizards and Im sold. I thought the movie was trying to put in a tad more sarcasm compared to the book. Trying to make it slightly comical.. Not a lot of things happened though in that 2 hours 40 mins.. Ending wasnt quite what I had expected but Im sure the Part 1 of the Deathly Hallows would pick up from there... (:
Last week was a great week for me in the lab. Was ask to help out on another research project on wednesday by another lecturer.. I got to learn so much.. more than what I had bargained for.. (Unleashing Leslie the Nerd now) I got to use an Ultrasound machine (Yes the same machine used on pregnant women).. I got to see the cross-section view of a quad muscle and it was amazing! haha.. all 4 muscles that made up the quad, a bit of the hamstring and the bone! it was amazing.. sorry I dont have any pictures to show but it was definitely worth coming in again on thurs (which was my day off) just to help out more.. This summer internship programme has taught me so much, helped me realise where my interest lie.. I get to pick the brains of my lecturers, see how they handle problems that arise when machines dont work and their subjects are waiting, I get to asked as many questions as I want to recent graduates from my course, my lecturers of course... it has been a super opportunity for me.. Ive got anothe 3 more weeks on it and this coming week would be the mother of all weeks ahha.. as in, my project, lots of testing this coming week, lots of data to analyse... (:
Well, other than that, Im excited to be heading home in a couple of weeks time... finally a break before uni starts again in Sept.. Just hope my laptop will keep working till I get home and get it repaired.. (de-wormed)
Papa Peacock got bored last night and got a facebook account for my mom hahah.. now my entire family is on facebook. not sure if that is a good thing hahah.. we'll just have to wait and see.. (:
