been boring lately, been the usual, sleep, food(!!!) and tv, plus a lot of movies...went to skool yesterday, to go to ngee ann polytechnic for this chemistry course involving dyes on fabrics...met up with koh wee, wilson and wei yu in the fitness corner to play magic but there wasn't enuff time so we idn't finish, then we went to the canteen, they read our attendance and stuff....and off we were to the poly on board a bus...1st was a small lecture and a tea break where i ate the most food (as usual) and drank the sweetest tea with 3 packs of sugar and 3 packs of cream (as usual) then we went to the lab where we wore these white lab coats u always see in movies doing experiments, neway joel ended up being my lab parter cuz koh wee ran off to serene(traitor!!) who had no parter, neway we had to mix things around and use heat to dissolve stuff and all that stuff in those beakers and flasks and all those things. our aim was to make a synthetic dye using chemicals....along our insutructions, i found out some dio-watever crystal would explode if it was dry, nice thot! i wondered where we could find them... neway we also did tests involving bacteria like the deadly E. coli and the it-will-do-something-but-i-dunno-wat-it-does S. aureus, did i mention the nutrients used to feed it smell, BAD???? oh ya bad means like TERRIBLE!!! *SCREAM*, HORRIGIBLE!!! *SCREAM LOUDER* and VEGETABLE!!! *boiling*...ok watever...neway it was to see if our dyes had ne anti-bacterial properties, there was for e. coli but not s. aureus... well at least for our dye, cuz diff tables made diff dyes out of 4... later we took time to cut out shapes from fabrics and let them be dyed... i made a star, joel made a heart, a broken heart and a torn heart (btw, lindi was there too) and we used a vacuum pump to assist in this filtration thing.... then after a while we checked out our dyed fabrics... it looked blue but based on the pH value and stuff, it was only an indicator that said it was an alkali, in the end our red dye became pink on the fabrics....after the bus drove us to skool then cwp...me and koh wee ate at mac then i went home....

since tue i've been attending the emerge conference held by my church, the 1st day i had to sleep at 1, wake up at 4 and leave at 5 so arrive at cwp at 6...neway it was powerful, the praise and stuff...the word power competition was not bad, ppl had to say out a whole verse from the bible and include all the commas, semi-colons and periods... and some other stuff like "who wants to be a millionaire" stuff and the pyramid game and a wheel of fortune based thing....went home at 1, slept at 2 and woke up at 4..AGAIN, met up at 6 and went off again... today was the same thing except there was a talentime instead, u could send sms's and it would be posted up on the lcd screen, something like wat u see on american idol on chan. 5, my sms appeared haha... the singers and dancers were great, this guy called weng cheong sang GREAT, the dancers were good and the singers were very good in singing the songs, chinese, pop, rock and even ballet was in the talentime... went home late again...next day (today) i woke up and guess wat? PAIN, i could barely move without excruciating pain... i'd experienced pain mainly in my arms since i went to a gym....now its much worse....so i skipped the last day and i'm still in pain....!
