labwork is so unpredictable i tell you. my protocol changes every now and then. so does my test compounds. so does everythng else actually. it all depends on my supervisor's mood. he's a nice guy actually, just that he's super fickle minded. lol. sometimes when we're in a middle of a discussion, he'll just start humming some indian tune. not the kuch kuch hota hai kind, more like those very traditional and whiny indian songs. we can't disturb him then, we have to just let him finish the song or get snapped back to reality. lol
yesterday my friend's mouse managed to escape. we didn't realise until the cleaning lady told us 'adik, ada tikus lari'. my friend had to chase after the mouse outside the lab, lol. then my friend put it back on top of the cage and used a plastic container to cover it. on top of that, he placed something heavy over the container. after some time i saw that the mouse managed to escape from the container but he was still on top of the cage. i told my friends that maybe they should just spare this mouse since it has such great survival instincts. my friend thought that maybe we can let it roam around on the floor in the lab and see what it can do. when she let it down, the mouse came walking towards me. the next thing i knew it crawled up the inner part of my pants. wtf. i started screaming and shaking it off. the whole lab was practically staring at me by then. haha.
i'm getting a 2nd hand vios. my dad's friend knew someone who wants to sell off the car and asked him if he was interested. my dad has always wanted me to get a vios but i told him i didn't want to as it's gonna be quite hard for me to settle the installments when i start working. so i told him that i wanted a myvi instead. since the owner was selling it at a pretty good price, we decided to buy it. 
i'll be going back to pg tmr to see jo before she leaves on sunday. can't believe how fast time flies. i spent soo little time with her since i'm in kl most of the time
jo, make sure you're free for me on sat kay? can't wait to see you.
apparently i gained weight. sigh. my friend commented that i got fatter and he kept tryin to make me wave at him so that he can see my flabby arms. uggh.
