Being a research assistant in department of medical microbiology in University Malaya is not as easy as i think. Here u need to learn all the basic cleaning stuff and some routine works such as filling the tips, autoclaving, pipette washing etc, at least. Then u gotta learn and master all the lab techniques from senior master or phD before u r assigned to certain research project and apply for master. Haiz. So i guess i only can apply for my master/phD (still in consideration whether wanna skip master or not) next year.

We have nothing to do in the morning, hence senior asked us to learn how to clean the freezer. Im stoning because i never do that and we have to clean 3 freezers. Faint*

♥ Here are the ice-breaking tools. The spanner is quite big and heavy (for me)..

♥ My labmate. Both of us are the newcomers in this lab. She is enjoying this ice-breaking work. But no thought, we two and another labmate keep laughing and have fun haha XD macam kids jeh~

♥ Im the ice-breaker :D Don't know when we need to clean the freezer again zz. After clean the freezer in the morning, we clean the water bath in the evening haiz.
It has been two weeks im working in that department. Go to work at 9am, leave the lab at 7pm or 8pm++ (im the first one who leave ><) and u can see all the seniors still busy or concentrating on their works. Actually im not complaining. The works are easy, not any uphill tasks, just that i feel so exhausted and suffering leg pain everyday.
Feeling kinda worry that whether myself can really fit into such a hectic and stressful lab life, they all are very good and experienced. Many research assistants come and go, they cant bear with it (This is what senior told us). But there's one thing they sure with "If u can survive in this lab, there's no problem for u to survive in anywhere any lab". This sounds scary weyyyy T_T
Maybe this is a good chance to train myself to be more discipline and stronger. I will take this challenge and i wanna survive till the end!!

友誼:是你打他一巴掌 … 他會還你一巴掌。 愛情:則是會默默承受 … 且說「打是情、罵是愛」。 友誼:是他摟你的腰 … 會覺得太肉麻。 愛情:則是愈緊愈好 … 最好永遠不要分開。 友誼:說話時聲音如雷 … 不拘小節。 愛情:則是輕聲細語 … 動作溫柔 … 惟恐嚇到對方。 友誼:同...

The problem is you need to find place to temporary keep those frozen stuff.
Or you can just eat it all b4 cleaning the freezer. That is what I use to do with all the ice-cream :)
