Mon-wed
Went to the symposium held at Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel. It was really an eye-opener for me.. So many prof and scientist all gathered in Singapore for a conference and lectures. attended a couple of lectures related to lanthanides and it was insightful.. realised that there are pple in this world doing similar things to me.. but different d block metal i guess. PHEW.. the food was good esp the brownies... yummmy.. must learn to make it..
signed up for being a tour guide on the 2nd night.. the plan was to go to Night safari initially.. but due to the rain... we changed it to where u noe!!!!!! VIVO city... omg.. it is the place tt i have been going to for the past mths... luckily for me.. i knew where to eat and shop... :P it was really fun to bring the profs out.. they were all so adorable... :) kept asking us questions... abt everything in sg... :P nice experience.. din regret going....
the banquet reminds me of a wedding dinner.. it is quite a nice place to hold one though the food was not tt great. but the ambience was great.. prob it was due to the pple... the cocktail was a little boring... as my usual gang was not there.. But i enjoyed the dinner.. cos jack and i were planning xl's bday party games.. haha.. we were tryin hard to make sure that she din see the games.. wanted it to be a surprise for her... Oh it was XL's bday party the next day at downtown east.. i volunteered to be her game mistress.. haha... roped in the help of SUresh and Jack.. :P
The day finally came.. for our darling gal XL!!.. we started off with all meetin at my place to help me to carry stuff.. i had the big basket thingy and a water tumbler.. and of course my PINK bag.. :P went down to fang yi's place.. den me, suresh and jack were busy coming up with the games and what jack said.. synthesis.. of the games..( it was just cutting paper and writing stuff) well when ya bring tog a grp of chem guys, their topics always revloves ard chemistry... well i guess their love for chemistry is really there ya :P fang yi, wan si and audrey were busy with the presents... we spent such a long time at fang yi's place and i was super hungry... cos i din really eat a gd breakfast.. was feeling super hungry... ps.. pple for being so grouchy... haha..just hungry lah..
