urops...
today's the 2nd day of urops.. =) from wad the prof said, everyth seems quite manageable.. but haha.. think as time goes on, all the problems will surface ba.. lol.. i'm supposed to clone a particular gene from a particular organism, re-express it in E. coli, and isolate the enzyme.. at least for now.. haha.. there's still the bigger picture la.. i cloning 1 enzyme.. my senior doing her masters needs to clone 10! wah.. haha.. and i think another girl doing honours will do some too.. plus the prof himself.. ultimately, we're going to put all these enzymes tog and synthesise sth.. hopefully some drug tt targets against the bacteria.. =) not sure if one year is enough to do all these, but i really hope i can do sth meaningful.. =) and can publish papers for the 1st time.. haha.. but tt's like so long away..
now we still figuring how to clone the gene.. haha..
anyway.. i think i made the right choice in taking up biochemistry rather than some statistics plus abit of expt la.. tt prof chew offered.. haha.. my fren say under prof chew will be very xiong one.. lol.. and my prof yew seems friendly and understanding.. haha.. he'll chat w us.. and since he's goin reservist nx week, tt has been the topic for these 2 days.. lol.. cos there's a guy doin honours project too (though subject of interest quite diff).. and guys can talk alot abt army stuff.. lol.. but haha.. when prof teaches us abt the theory and methodology, he tends to go quite fast.. however he explains quite in detail, so if i listen hard, can catch most of it.. =) but i think the masters student abit bored there.. haha.. cos he explain v long.. lol..
all in all.. lab is great.. =) ppl all v friendly.. and i get to see mei nu, the masters student, and shuai ge, the honours guy.. haha.. not bad la..
