more celebration

brought a cake for Prof. Tiramisu cheese cake i think. its was rather frozen and taste buds not working that morning.

Flowers

Prof got promoted and we gave her flowers.

invitrogen's voucher

Invitrogen had a promotion this CNY season, buy stuff and they give you ang pau. Inside the ang pau you get vouchers to 'The Bakin' Boys' at Biopolis. We got $15 worth of vouchers but when I went there, the salesperson at the counter refused to let me get muffins with the voucher. She only allowed me to get coffee; and cant even use it to get hot chocolate or tea. The thing is, I dont drink coffee!!! Anyway, got some caffeine and came back. then Terror Teren called the Invitrogen people and found out actually the voucher can be used to buy anything! GRRRRRR...

Moral of the story: don't go to the shop called Bakin' Boys. They suck at PR.

name become shorter

my boss' name became shorter today, from "ap" to just "p". Send in your congratulatory emails now.

not easy to lift that freaking heavy thing over the new one on the new black frame. both CO2 now for 37C. One for infected and the other clean cells. Hohohho...one step nearer to CO2 poisoning...5% + 5% = 10%..hiak...hiak...hiak...
