Guess I won't be blogging every single day anymore...probably I'll blog at the end of each week instead.
My SIP started on the 7sep and now I've survived 1 week of it. I've been attached to a pharmaceutical company and first days were always scary for me. I felt nervous and lots of questions were playing in my mind on my way there. Oh, my working hrs is frm 8.30 to 6pm everyday and its in boonlay...so travelling time is ard 1hr from sengkang.
I was surprised when i entered the lab...i was surprised to see lots of interns from the diff polys and uni. Before i came, i thought that i'll be working with a lot of older people haha. Toured around the company, check out the different departments and learnt how to operate a few machines such as the kft, ph metre and other experiments for physical testing of the tablets. Most of the experiments or machines there were all very familiar to what I did in sch...gmp, pa and pmt came alive though.
The people there were all very friendly, patient and helpful in mentoring us and there ain't any problem communicating with them, was surprised to see familiar people too.
Did some calibrations of machines and testings on different tablet samples on the 1st and 2nd day and for the rest of the days, i've become familiar with what to do already. Somethings were very surprising and its not like what i've expected, such as the dress code, equipments and stuffs but i shan't talk abt it here hehehe. At times, there ain't things to do it can get pretty boring too.
I realised that my energy level on the first day was extremely low, but as days passed by I'm not as tired as before...though for the 1st wk i did lots of walking and standing, till my legs hurt. My eyes hurt too as they are always dry due to the low moisture level in the lab. However, waking up is always difficult for me...everytime i'll wake up 5mins later. Haiz...I hope the circle line will be completed soon so that I can wake up later abit haha.
Punctuality and attendance is very strict in the company as our pay will get deducted even if we're late for 1min. I was almost late yesterday...luckily the distance from the interchange to the company was within walking distance or else I'll be late for sure. Carissa was waiting for me and as I was late, in the end we had to walk and run like crazy hahaha. Sorry for making you run =(
Haha so...my next wk's resolution is to wake up on the dot, no more delays! haha.
Overall, 1 wk of work had passed and I'm happy with everything despite my constant complaining and sighing everyday hehehe :)
Its difficult to meet up with the poly peeps after work, as we always end work at 6pm and by the time we travel and stuff, it will be quite late already. Finally yesterday we got to meet up for dinner and to break fast...we reached far east ard 7pm and almost all the eating places were already full. No choice but I just drank water to break fast. We wanted to eat at sakura but its full and in the end we only got a seat around 7.45...and i finally got to eat the lemon chicken i've been craving for!! haha. In the beginning we thought of ordering more but in the end we're all so full.Walked around ion and all and reached hm ard 10. Yesterday was also the day I officially took the circle line for the very first time haha. Journey from orchard all the way to sengkang is pretty fast as well. Now I realized how useful the circle line is...empty and convenient :)

This movie is the bomb!! Thrilling to the max!
For the first time after so long...
i've finally felt truly satisfied and syiok after watching a movie.
Though at times, i just felt like killing the girl myself.
Gotta say that her killer stares were superb.
The main character Esther; 'Isabelle Fuhrman' is only 12yrs old in real life and she can act really well.
A must watch movie...you'll never regret watching it :D
Horrible
