i've been around.. literally.

its been awhile since i last visited this page... thanks to my perfect little hectic life..
who said PhD was easy, and who said 3rd year PhD is a breeze?
been running in and out of the labs everyday, so much so that i don't even have to take off my labcoat anymore..maybe just for lunch..wait, what lunch?
i can't even remember the last time i washed my labcoat, because i keep forgetting to bring it home..


if walking around from block b (i.e. my office) to block n (the wet chemistry lab) to block c (the analytical lab) under the excruciating hot sun (it doens't set til 6.45pm!) is not taxing, i am further burnt out having to drive everyday to uni.. my carpool mate has decided that our times do not match anymore, and prefer to have our own freedom of leaving the house when we decide to wake up.. not like i mind, since i do have to come to uni at 6am on certain days and go back at 7pm.. while he prefers to go home at 5pm just so he can have a family dinner.. who eats at 5.30pm anyway? well, if thats the way its decided, i'll just have to hang on to the last bit of mind power and body strength of mine, skimming the highway home at 120 km per hour...keeping my fingers crossed there will be no roadtraps..soon enough, i'll begin to camp in uni just to salvage more sleep time..

weekends are no rest either..since getting the keys to our new home, every weekend has been spent at either furniture shops, interior designer studios, kitchen cabinet and anywhere that has something to do with home deco or home furnishing or basically, putting something into the place you are going to live in..it is fun indeed, but once u reach home after the whole day out and hit your bed, you realise that you are burnt out and you can't do anything else. and your weekend has just passed you by, and the hectic weekday looms in again...
