Pre April Fool?

In the name of Allah, the most Gracious, the Most Merciful,

So last Tuesday I went to the lab just like usual. They (the pHD and master students) started to give me heaps of thing to do. In the lab, I was like the volunteer aka assistant to any one of them that need helps, in exchange of the new skills that I gained.

A skillful and beneficial Muslim is better than pious individual yet have nothing to be offered to the society right? ;)

Still remember the weekly meeting that I need to attend every Wednesday? Actually, that meeting is where people make presentation based on their project, using the slides and powerpoint.

To cut the story short, that Tuesday morning we were working on cloning. Then out of sudden, Vignesh told me that I need to make a presentation tomorrow morning. He said that presentation will be assessed and the mark goes to my final grade for the summer semester.

I was like, "What?! An assessed presentation? What can I present if I have no result? I just got my project like yesterday!"

With his slumber face he replied, "You know right as a summer research student we need to make a presentation?" And he turned to face Gautham (another summer student) looking for a confirmation nod.

Then he added, "Plus, Dr Suresh just showed the criteria sheet to me and Gautham"

My jaw almost dropped. OMG!! I need to present tomorrow in front of professional researchers and I have yet to prepare a thing??! I don't want to fail my summer course!

"This can't be happening. I'm going to talk to Suresh" I stood and removed my lab coat almost simultaneously (ok exaggerating je disitu..). I walked fast towards the doors when Vignesh yelled my name to stop me. When I turned, all of them were chuckling over my anxious face.

And yes, they just PRANKED me! To be precise, Vignesh did. You are one naughty-master-student. Grrr..

And so the motto of the SKB lab applies here, "The SKB lab; where science is fun" Haih~

Another struggle

Bismillah..

The first entry (and probably the last) for October..

I'm looking forward for my revision week (konon nye). Heaps of assignments have been submitted. Alhamdulillah2. Lots of obstacles have been overcame along the way. And finally, the end of 2nd year is just around the corner! =) Yeay!

So let me sum up all the 'events' for the past 3 weeks of October:

•  Assignmentssssss
• Tutor application has been submitted
• The application for summer research scholarship has been approved! Alhamdullilah.. *saat terbaca email pemberitahuan dr UQ sponsorship unit mlm tu, terus sujud syukur. Ya Allah, ya Allah ingat kan tak ada harapan. Hasil berkat pertolongan dari Kak Syafinaz dan Kak Zatil yang bagi panduan tulis CV malam tu. Amin, amin..*
• Mukhayyam at Sunshine Coast with all the sisters, and got the chance to co-drive this black Audi!

 

 

•  I'm planning for far-distance trip next year, like very far (traveling to other continent perhaps?). Fulus mahu cukup.. So, I'm going to work part time next year. Seniors said that a third-year-student life is not as busy as second year life. InsyAllah2..

Akhir kalam, see you till then next entry! Well, hopefully.. =) Pray for my final!

Hijab fashion nowadays..

Found this awesome video about hijab on youtube! So glad I found it. Let's see what he says about hijab.. ^_^

So, do you get the REAL message?  

Chemistry Video Conference

We had a link up session with UQ's pass leader at early as 8.am. Fuh.... Luckily the session went smoothly. This pass session was meant for CHEM1030. And our seniors were also 2 of the 4 pass leader present at that day. So proud of them. They also earn some money when they work as pass leader. But I never know the figure of their salary.... huhu... That's Micheal and Elaine, and our senior were sitting (not in the camera). We learnt a lot from them. Thanks guys! U're rock!! (quote from Azimah) =D


On the previous day, we had our FIRST prac for chemistry. (gare2 ketiadaan bhn kimia utk experiment pertame) "The extraction of caffeine from instant coffee" The entire class failed to obtain the caffeine crystal due to the fact that we never use an instant coffee. Instead, the lab ass provided us with the blended coffee, not the instant one. Sigh..... Poor us. (-_-)
