1412

This entry is requested by my colleague Miss Nova... A tale of 1412

It's almost 9 pm now, and I'm still stuck in the office with Nova and Dr. Choi. We are waiting for the media to cool down before we inoculate the microbes. I'm tired, my foot hurts *sigh*

Hmm... where to start ah?

Today I started my day in the office with having my breakfast. Guess what I have fried mee & a cup of nescafe today. I was waiting for Nova so that we can have breakfast together like we normally do. Tapi apa boleh buat, dia lambat bangun pulak. Lenggang-lenggang kangkung dia masuk office jam 9.20 am. Hehehe. Macam anak bos! *wink wink* LOL ... Nasib baik during that time our bosses went out to have their 'secangkir kopi' kalau tidak...?! ;p

No lunch treat for us la today. Nasib ko Nova kalau tidak I wonder what is going to happen to your semi-vegetarian diet. Hehe. She had maggi cup for lunch... perisa apa tu Nova? Ayam? vegetarian? I'm also on diet la konon today. Makan kuih with Coke saja *chewah*. Ahaks.

Today tasks was more on media preparation. Nova is sick of weighing & I'm sick of washing cum sterilizing. But I have to give credits to myself... I'm a Superwoman!!!! I managed to unscrew all the fermentor nuts.. It was damn tight. Even Nova needs a 'Playar' to open it!!! ;p I'm strongggg... Thanks to Red Bull Bullleeeee hhh BLAH!... LOL

Me & Nova was actually having a problem in communicating with this Korean researcher as they can neither communicate nor understand English that well. We have to imagine as if we were talking to a primary school student *ni apa yg Dr. R cakap la, he advise me to do so when it comes to communicate with Dr. C the Korean researcher*. Then, for sterilizing purpose he ask me whether we have any ROX sterilizing reagent. I said I never heard about it. We only use Ethyl alcohol to sterilize things etc. So he bring my Korean bos Mr. J to go and buy. They went for shopping2, leaving me & Nova in the office *feels like heaven* ;p .. When he came back, guess what, the ROX sterilizing reagent is actually CLOROX!!! Huh! *Never heard of it la mengkali, banyak di pasaran* ;p

Huh! my entry writing was interrupted by some spectrophotometry session. *sigh*. It almost 11 pm now!!!! & the media is still hot!... Nova is sleepy.. & i'm not! but i'm tired... really really exhausted now...

Before the spectrophotometer session, Dr. C ask me to clean & sterilize the cuvette using a cotton bud. The problem is... masa dia mau kasi keluar tu cotton bud.. opss before that, he brought the cotton bud from Borneo resthouse I guess, that's where he's currently staying. Ok.. masa dia mau kasi keluar tu cotton bud... guess what, it was a USED cotton bud. Ada kuning2 lagi tu. Nova can't help herself but to laugh. Since I was the one facing him, terpaksa la tahan ketawa. Then, he bring the cotton bud away from us... cover line la kunun... it was so disgusting.. He gave it to me after he open the USED part, mo clean tu cuvette la kunun. But I'm not that stupid to used that. I throw it away when he's not looking. I took an alternative way since there's no cotton bud in the lab. I took a tooth pick & put a cotton on one end... buli pakai juga la... at least it is more cleaner compared to the USED one ... hehehe...

Our dinner was sponsored by Mr J tonight. We have fried rice for dinner. Actually Mr J offered to buy us some burgers... daging lagi... habis Miss Nova punya diet. I don't feel like eating burgers. So pandai2 la cari alasan. Mission accomplish! Masa menapau sempat lagi kami minum2 kopi... Ahaks...

Oklah.. at last... can go backkkk.... i'm going homeeeeeeeee.. Tata~
