Question of the day:

When it pours, you say "xia4 da4 yu3" (down big rain).

When it drizzles, you say "xia4 mao2 mao2 yu3" (down furry furry rain).

How come no one says "xia4 xiao2 yu3" (down small rain) instead? =)

Note: Words in the ( ) are the direct translation of the hanyu pinyin.

Yesterday was an ultra slack day!

Gp lecture was good, though... ermm... let's just say some people really do have sleep-inducing voices! Zzzz......

I just realised that Graduation Day's next Thursday, not Tuesday. Instead, there's a biochem test on Tuesday. =(

I do realise that I get very clumsy and careless during practicals.

Today was... argh! Had to redo all my titrations for expt 1 cos I forgot to add FA4. When I got my solutions for the thermochem expt, I forgot which is which, and had to take them again. What irritated me most was how my solution overflowed twice when I mixed the reagents! Argh.

Not forgetting, my bench is never dry during practicals! I'll always spill reagents somehow.

During the physics prelim practical, I never did take some of the measurements, cos I accidentally threw the card away. So I guessed and tried to recall how long it looks like... and voila... all my (predicted) measurements were wrong! Not surprisingly.

We received a Chem Practical Revision Book today. Another summary of the practical summary of the summary of the important notes in practicals. Hahaha!

What was most hilarious was the stuff on the cover!

"By LCPej* Principle, practice with thinking & reflection should shift thee to SCMI"

Hahaha! Funny ya?

But I gotta admit that it kinda makes sense too.

In case you're wondering, the Chem department came up with these abbreviations:

• SCMI - Sure can make it
• ACMI - Almost can make it
• TCMI - Totally cannot make it

Creative eh?

Hahaha! =)
