Started SIP for one week already. Quite a slacky week esp the first few days before Mr loh come back from his honeymoon. First day: Early morning attended SIP briefing thn a short food hygiene lesson and meet our supervisor, mdm cheong. Talk for a few mins thn ask us to hav our lunch first and meet her back the same place at 2pm.Quite a nice person. Assigned us to find a few things on net and let her see it at 1630. First day end work at 1630 instead of 1800. Early huh?!?!hahaha oh ya gt to noe 3 new frenz from same course but diff class, wan er alycia and yinxia. tis time round i tried to find topic to tok to em.unlike e past i wait for ppl to talk when i first noe em. Good start eh!?! i've improve!! heehee Second day: Prepared 20 bottles(225ml each) and 200 dilution tube(9ml each) of peptone water. Make a mistake and waste alot of the peptone powder. i tink the amount we wasted can make around 200bottles(225ml each). Learnt how to autoclave also. todae we end work even earlier..ended at 1600. Third day: Prepared 2000ml of LTBB media. Took ard 3 hrs to finish pipetting it into the test tubes, including going rd tis lab dat lab to find things we need. Had a meeting wif Mr loh as tis e first day he saw us. He treated each of us a drink. Afterwhich went to the library to research on the guidelines of the product we will be working wif. Todae end work abit later..ended at 1715 cos mr loh come back alr so cannot end too early. Fourth day: Whole morning we do research in the library for the guidelines. Had a meeting wif Mr loh at 1530 to show him wad we've found. B4 meeting him we went for tea break cos still hav 1hr. good right!?!? He asked us to explain to him and we were like errrr...how to explain!! cos we nv read wad we've found. but still we tried. i started first. After showing him, he asked us to tabulate the things he wants so we proceed to the library. tis time we end work on time..1800. Fifth day: Whole morning we were in the library tabulating the results for ms cheong. Went to FPP to find ms cheong after we finished. while waiting for her, we eat snake. we eat the sponge cake dat e SIP student there baked it. Quite nice..goes well wif ice cream. Had an early lunch..self-declared one cos she was having meeting and we need time to autoclave the media we goin to prepare. tis time is BGBB. Went thru alot of trouble to get the number of test tubes and other things we needed. Took 1hour plus to finish pipetting. we are getting faster and faster after 2 days of training. hahaha next time we will be pipetting expert! haha Had a meeting wif mr loh again to show him the tabulated results. todae end work on time again..1730. After tis 5 days of work i can sae i don like working life. study is better. Working life is so boring...everyday 0830-1800. Nt like studying..gt diff timing. Always my hero @ 4:46 PM
