Bad headache.... slept at past 1 am last night, woke up at 6am, said my morning prayers, and woke up again at 7 am.
By right my experiments should end by this Friday..... but my prof wants me to continue with a few more experiments. Since the lab's funds for the final year students are busted, I've had to do some scraping, begging, and cajoling for the materials I need.
And I have to wait a couple of weeks for some of the components.... meaning that I'm gonna have to do some experiments 'under the radar'. Can't do anything for now till those components arrive.
Oh well..... as my prof pointed out, those experiments would make my thesis more complete.
Besides, he was even willing to pay for all those materials out of his own pocket if the lab had refused to pay any more.
morning .....
i should have slept last night ... and the night before too .... but I'm still jumpy ....

Well..... as he puts it: 'In the name of Science, a few hundred dollars is a bargain!'
Interesting fellow.... he's from Iceland, got his Master's and PhD in the US, and came to NUS a few years ago.
Good-natured, easygoing guy.... everyone likes him.

insomnia ....
btw.. can someone tell andyboy that JP Morgan Chase bought Bear Stearns at US$2 a share.. backed by the US Treasury.. at that price so that Bear Stearns doesn't collapse?
but JPMC is saddled with ALL the debt and liabilities of Bear Stearns..
don't you love it when he doesn't know what the hell he's talking about?
or worse, he knows but chooses not to say it in order to hoodwink others?
doesn't it remind you of someone like his idle idol CSJ?

failing to find that, whiskey, rye, gin, vodka or any spirits like that are just as effective

I tried absinthe .... I got hyper instead .... and streaked in the snow ... nearly lost something very important ... never again ...
btw.. i noticed about the stewardess case... the police didn't "do nothing then decided to later"
they could not charge the mad wife.. at that time, they could not charge her under singapore laws.. i think that changed very recently with the passing of some law..
now they are able to charge her so they did...
thing is, no matter what happens the people in SC will always think the worst..
so do find out the whole truth before ranting about things..

I am beginning to do that ...
I dunno ... litle things set me off now ... i think I need a break ......

I'm still holding out on my boycott ......

It's so darn hot over here! It's Autumn, for goodness' sakes! But it's been hotter than Summer!
I'm so tired, I ache all over, and I don't really look forward to going to work today. Attending the seminars AND having to work is wearing me out already. I seem to face some sorta mental resistance when trying to master ECG Interpretation... think I must be getting older or stupider, or both...

jiu zai kuo is equally lovely. Me and mrs seveneleven have always wanted to go there are seeing some of those pics taken but never really made it there becoz of kids. Maybe soon, we will be able to make it there
SQ are a bunch of idiots.. i think they got bought over by a bunch of charlatans who were their con-men-sultants...
just look at the various enforcement agencies who got con-men-sultants and turned into some kind of "service oriented" agencies.. now they've lost the respect of the people and worse, are seen as "lousy service providers"
the respect they lost is causing a lot of problems and is something they may never win back again... just look at the people out there making fools of them.. and their senior management is so sold on the "service culture" that they demand their staff to bend over and be sodomised by these people..
oh well.. they forget that their staff, when motivated by pride in their work and when they command the respect of people, will do their best and give their right arms not to shame their organisation..
now, even the staff look at their own organisation with disrespect, what do you think will happen to the organisation?

It's really quite sad that the Opposition Singapore has are mostly clowns. If only we had the Opposition fielding candidates with more clout and who are respectable members of the community.

i dunno.. i'd put food in front of him, and clear it when he doesn't want to eat..
let him starve..
we're not forcibly taking away his right not to eat.. in fact, we're giving him food..
let's see how long he'll last..
he'll crack because he's no martyr.. he's just an attention whore.. nothing more, maybe a lot less...
