Big Yawns
As you can see from my last blog entry, I didn’t get to sleep too early last night. I was actually doing my Chemistry Tutorial questions but I didn’t feel like sleep after. So I started blogging. Chinese blogging is enough for me. Haha. Today has been another long day. I didn’t look that great cause I’m not smiling that much and I’m like yawning almost for the whole day. Been trying to find something that would make me smile but didn’t find anything - probably too tired. So I’m intending to go sleep early tonight. Really need it.
I woke up the usual 7am this morning. Refuse to woke up but I have to. Can’t miss the lab in the morning bah. Left the house a tiny bit late. Mom drove me to train station and she went the wrong way so she panicked, ‘I hope I don’t make you miss the train.’ Well, I didn’t think I’m gonna be THAT late since that I normally wait for the train for around 10 minutes anyway - a few minutes wouldn’t hurt. So I got to the train station, got my ticket, walked in, pressed the train station machine and it says that the train will leave in 7 minutes. So train would probably come in around 2 minutes. Goodio. Waited for a while until I heard an anouncement saying, ‘Due to some technical problems, the train services will be late. We apologise for any inconvenience.’ Great. =\ Well, waited for about 10 minutes and train hasn’t come. So I decided to call Dad and ask if he could drive me to uni. He agreed and just as I was about to leave, people started standing up and huddling behind the train line. Gah, train came. Dilemma! To take or not to take! Well, since I’ve already got the train ticket and I’ve only JUST called Dad, decided to take the train. So I called Dad again, telling him that the train arrived.
Train trip was alright. Nothing too special but I was struggling a bit with time, hoping that 98 will not leave without me cause that’s probably the last bus before 9am which is when my Chemistry lab starts. Luckily, 98 was already there waiting for… me? Haha. Nicole missed that bus tho. I got to uni, rushing to my locker to get my lab coat. It was a long walk when you know that you are fighting against time. I got back to the laboratory just in time (: Lucky me. Individual work today. Just like last week. It was quite fun. But this week, we’re playing around with concentrated acid so have to be extra careful. And silly me accidentally touched the tip of the dropper with concentrated nitric acid. After that happened, I ran some water on my finger with the tap, just to make sure that the acid wash off. Continue doing my stuff until a few minutes later, I found a yellow patch of skin on my finger. Got so freaked out I went to Mary and told her. Decided to tell Nicole, our demonstrator. She had this serious yet funny look on her face telling me to go quickly run water on my finger and wash the patch with some soap. Although it doesn’t hurt but people was walking up to me asking me if it does or what happened. Quite funny, cause if it hurts, I would’ve been crying by then. Hehehe. Yellow patch remains. But our demonstrator said that the layer of dead skin should peel off in a few days. No big deal. Goodio. We made fun of some of the solutions. Like one of them looked like Honeydew bubble tea (sorry Ken :D) - with that milky green colour and bubbles on top. But it was actually a whole heap of acid in it. We rushed the very last few minutes of the lab to finish cleaning up. It was quite hectic. But we managed.
After that, we went over to the library to finish up our lab work. Then went and hand it in. Finally. By then, I was damn tired. Took my time to go to the lockers to put my lab coat back. Then went off to Resource Centre to see Ken. Like I’ve said, I was really tired so I refuse to do anything except for sitting there and putting my head on the desk. Did that for nearly 1 hour. At 2pm, we went off to our classes. I finished a little bit earlier but that was alright.
Went straight to the medical centre to have my Hep B injection taken. Didn’t hurt that much this time cause the nurse was really skilled. She had the needle in for only 2 seconds. Haha, pro man! Then spent my hard-earned $20 on the injection 
心痛 (Heartache) man!! Oh well. Then went to the library to print my Human Biology lecture notes for this Wednesday. By the time I’ve left the library, it was 3.30pm. That gives me around 1 and half hour to do whatever. Decided to go back to the room near Ken’s classroom I went to last week. Nice and quiet in there. Was just looking at my Human Bio notes etc. Kinda bored and tiring. Ken msged saying he will be out in 20 minutes so I decided to wait outside.
As I walked out, there was a mega bunch of parents and little kids. My eyes went @.@. I stood there until 4pm when the little kids were gone into 2 different classrooms. Some parents were huddling outside the classroom while some disappeared to I don’t know where. There was this particular lady standing beside me as I was waiting for Ken to finish. She initiated a conversation, ‘So is one of your kid 10 year old as well?’ I looked at her and she jumped for a bit when I said, ‘No, I’m a student from Curtin.’ She apologised cause she didn’t really see my face but when she did, I didn’t look like a mother for a 10 year old. Haha. Mind you, the lighting was quite dark there. But hey, it was a funny little conversation.
So Ken finished his class and we left uni. Waited for the bus cause we missed it. It was a short bus trip for a sleepy person like me. Haha. So I slept in Ken’s car as he was driving as well. He drove me home (Thanks Hun!). Well, took a rest when I got home. Had dinner then had a warm shower.
Currently still tired. But such a long blog entry =\ Haha, yeh. Just about my little day. Didn’t miss it at all. Glad it was all over. But being all quiet today saved a tiny bit of my energy. I’m sure that’s why I’m typing so much today. But I shall leave the rest of the energy to do some work.
(:
