Having CSW lesson now.
Just received back my job application and interview results..

For my cover letter..
Format - 6/10
Content - 6.5/10
Language - 7/10

For my interview..
Personal Preparation - 26/30
Delivery - 34/40

Overall - 79.5/100
A 0.5% more to an A =S

Guess I have to do better in my written test if I want my A.

And.. our FYP has kind of ended up in a "road block" at the moment..
Can't touch the Bio-Plotter.. Can't develop new scaffolds.. Can't start cell-culturing without consistent scaffold as results will not be meaningful..
With all this problem, we're abit screwed. >_>
Either way, this isn't entirely our problem.. more of our direct supervisor if you ask me..

So the worst case scenario will be writing report and thesis without results =D
Slightly better, will be, we import in ready-made scaffolds to do cell-seeding.
Then can proceed on to the material testing and cell viability count etc.

Blah. Blah. Blah.

It has already been 3 weeks since the start of the term break. And school reopens tomorrow..
So much things to do; yet so little time to complete them.

Things to do:
Optics Report and PPT slides.
Personal Selling Group Work.
Registration for IPPT.
Ikariam - Grow and colonize.
Watch Anime.. =)

Blah.. I'm still busy working on my CSW letter writing.. dumb advertisement crap.
I just started playing a web browser game, Ikariam. I'd rate it 4 out of 5. It doesn't lag, and has pretty interesting features such as trading, pillaging etc. I especially like the trading part of the game. Oh yes, there's the espionage as well, spying on other's economy, diplomacy, as well as military strength.. Just got bored of playing RPGs etc. , so just trying out the game.

Those whom are interested.. go to http://ikariam.org/index.php
I'm playing in world, "Zeta."

I've also been fiddling around facebook as well, playing MHA (My Hero Ability), Fighter Club.. Buying and selling of friends (this application is particularly dumb).. rofl.

I better finish off my stuffs before sleeping.. need to go school tmr.. haiz.. sian..

Ranting begins..

WTF! WTH! OMG! OMFG! STARHUB LAG LIKE HELL! !@#$!@#%

Seriously.. starhub connection sucks.. WTH is the the 1000mb/s at partner sites, like yahoo and google.. I can't even check my mails properly without the "connection is lost" page showing everytime I try to log into my yahoo mail.

For those who plan to renew their plan or want to subscribe to Starhub Cable, please reconsider it thoroughly. I'd personally recommend PacNet if you have the cash. Even if it's more expensive, it's better than paying 60 bucks and getting crap connection, that is as good or worst than 56kb/s..

Omg.. are we returning to the 56k era..?

Although it's a little late.. let me introduce my new collection..


*Drum Roll*
Reinforce Zwei!











Yeah yeah.. this pictures are from the original "advertisement" for this figurine..
Okay, here are some original ones..







After taking it outta the box..













Damn.. I love Alter work. Oh yeah, here's the story..
Ash and I went to Bugis on Wednesday, 2 days b4 he goes for his 2 wks chalet, lolx.
Wanted to have some morning practice that day, but it ended up becoming a games day.. and I was in jeans.. ~_~

They year1s were split into 4 teams and played "captain's ball."
I did play abit if the teams weren't even. But my shoe laces kept coming lose and it felt uncomfortable >_>

So Ash came during the afternoon, had our lunch together, before heading out towards bugis. Oh, Sze Yuan wanted to tag along as well, but too bad she had a meeting =/
By the time her meeting ended, we were on the way home.. ROFL! xD

Kk.. so we went to.. Sunshine Plaza.. isn't it obvious? =/
Was looking at KKnM's new arrival and pre-order listing. There's where I saw that they were selling Reinforce Zwei.. apparently it got restocked.. I was a little late to pre-order it during the start of the year together with my Fate Testarossa.
And there I was deciding if I should buy it.. Ash asked me to flip a coin to determine the purchase.. or talk with the figurine and check if it would ask me to buy it.. LOLx.

And I ended up zapping my master card and purchase it >_>
That's how I ended up with it ^^;

Oh.. I can't wait until evening.. there's something waiting for me.. Hehe..

Have been going to the RPC almost every single weekday since last week.
FYI, RPC is Rapid Proto-typing Centre. and FYI, FYI is For Your Information.

Have been tasting Indian timing with first hand experience since then.
Our project is arise around the "BioPlotter." Without it, we're doomed. And our current situation is quite bad, as the device has yet to be considered "Commissioning: Passed"

So while all this crap is going around, I've decided to make use of my spare time to train instead of sleeping in the RPC. There's practically nothing much I can do, except to sit/stand 1 corner and observe. Why can't I do hands-on? Cause the engineer doing the commissioning stated that NO 1 IS TO TOUCH THE MACHINE W/O HIS PERMISSION.

Since that much has been said, obviously there's nothing else the rest of us can do, except to use eye power. After all, he is explaining the usage to us.

I'd say that this is the 1st phrase.
The 2nd phrase would be SEM. known as Scanning Electron Microscope.
This is done to determine the porosity of the scaffold we've build using the BioPlotter. Before SEM can be done, we have to do "ghost spattering" to the scaffold. However, once a scaffold has undergo this treatment, it is no longer suitable for cell culturing. Despite the fact that it cannot be used for cell culturing, we could always use to for mechanical strength testing. So it's not really wasted as we can waste it! *muahahaha

Alrite, retiring out now.. Have a jog to do tmr morning.

Seriously.. he was the 1 who approve it, and yet. Never register.. ~_~

Anyway, I've been watching D.Gray-Man recently, finally reach episode 80 le, lolx.
After catching up with D.Gray-Man, donnoe what else to watch le.. should I wait for the up coming Season? Gundam 00 2, Kaze no Stigma 2, Ah My Goddess 3, Hayate no Gotoku 2?

Before that, I better start working on my darn FYP!
