2004 EOY Prelude 2

it has been a very fast year... the term tests results are coming out simultaneously... luckily i got some a1s, or else i dunno whether where will my msg lie in the level? i cant believe that the average msg for physics is quite "high", and surprisingly, i heard, that the supposedly-to-be-the-best class got a very "high" average msg for maths...

now i got 3 a1s liao... physics, chem and geomorphology... now still haven receive geography of asean paper back yet, but i doubt i can do well... don't even know what to study for the test then, no confidence in aceing the paper... the other subjects, still can lar...

in a few weeks time, the end-of-year examinations are going to commence... i wonder if anyone has started revising for the exams, but i doubt not many people will do so... even i'm still playing some com games, but now not that frequently... but i think the syllabus should be quite relaxed... just hope that they won't strain us too much... i've already had enough of these 2 years...

well, the sabbaticals this week is getting more exciting... of course, what they say everything good comes later... my sabbatical is environmental chemistry, where you study how to test for substances and metal ions present in the water around us... mineral water, sea water, tap water, pond water, blah blah blah... how the water can affect our health and how we can improve the situation... the best part is that i'm going to the nanyang technological university environmental studies department to see the high-tech stuff in treating water for human use... should be quite exciting, really looking forward towards it...

today's sabbaticals is about removing copper (II) ions from waste water using activated carbon (charcoal) and chitin (found in crab shells, lobsters and shrimps)... today's hands-on really very boring, coz need to stir the mixture of the waste water and charcoal/chitin for 1 hour!!! really can die lor... then filter the clear solution out, use micropipette, and blah blah blah... test the samples for amount of copper (II) ions, then compare and plot graph... not very interesting today... but i think tomorrow will be quite a tiring day... going to get unknown solution which is contaminated in whatever damn way, then find out what the hell causes the contamination... just try to make sure that i won't bore myself...

one's wealth is one's health...
