Tsunami

This biology practical was done a few weeks ago. We immobilised enzymes in alginate beads. Quite remarkable stuff. These enzymes work eventhough they are immobilised in this bead form. Just put them in a column in the burette and pour in the substrate. You can then collect the products.

Reminds you of diamonds, eh?

Last Wednesday, I had the opportunity to try the famous nasi lemak at Village Park restaurant. Absolutely delicious. We arrived at about 11 something and it is already super crowded. I ordered nasi lemak rendang ayam which cost me RM 7.20 and soya bean cincau for RM 2.60. Hailing from Ipoh, the food haven where food prices are usually much lower, I would say it is worth a try. But when you are in KL, comparatively, it is one of those value-for-money food around! Try their nasi lemak ayam goreng, their specialty.
Therefore, folks, new eating spot. =)

bercham food

Okay, some Ipoh mali stuff.
Restaurant in focus: Bercham Emas

A stall serving rice with dishes
Good dishes that I've tried: Braised pork belly with yam, Assam fish/ fish head, speciality tofu, stir-fried kailan, herbal chicken
Other dishes: steamed tilapia, fried eggs, belacan kangkung, pork ribs
(forgot to take photos of them, will try to do it next time)

Also in the spotlight is the stall selling satay at night (opens around 8 pm)
Why: have not tried the satay yet but ETHICS respected.
As I was leaving Bercham Emas after dinner, I saw the uncle and his son cutting off the carbon, the burnt part of the satay meats before serving them.

toodles :)

Mode: Chasing time

So many things to do, so little time. As much as I want to whine about how 24 hours are not enough for me, I also do not want to succumb under pressure. This blog post is such a repetition of my bad time management skills. Haih..
A2 is no joke, really. "Don't play play ah."

I've realised that I am a more emotional person than I thought. I feel better when I rant about things not working out just for the sake of letting it out, you know. Looks like not many people are okay with it, since they have come to think that I am pessimistic and paranoid. I really should learn how to control my emotions.

Conclusion: I've still got a lot to learn. Really got to buck up!

So tiring to be chasing time, COME ON!, got to be ahead of time.

Walking into July

Hello, people! It's July already.

I really like walking at my own pace, though most of the times people just zoom past me. When you are walking that fast, you tend to miss out on a lot of beautiful little things. In the morning, when I step out of the hostel, I look up into the sky; brilliant blue. So serene. "A new day." =) I take a deep breath of the fresh air and walk to college. There are times, of course, when walking fast is a must. I also prefer taking the stairs than the elevator: healthy.

On another note, it's Wimbledon now. I am a huge fan of Roger Federer. He is really the greatest tennis player of all time. This time round, he crashed out of the quarterfinals. I hope he could at least win a Grand Slam again.

I watched Transformers 3. For me, it was pretty good. I like the transformers part with the good effects, not so much on some of the actors'. Still, I would recommend you to watch it. =)

Fast forward

Only the second day of classes but lessons are already on fast pace. All lecturers are trying to finish up the syllabus. I am foreseeing very busy and hectic days coming soon. This is when time management skill comes in.
In the meantime, I am looking forward to watching Transformers: Dark of the Moon and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

*missing much good times*
