the NYP attachment programme is over days ago.. it was fun.. We did ice cream for the first day.. played around and ate the choco chips before dumping some of them into the machine.. the chocolate ic cream turned out to be bitter-sweet.. It was nice... But that'a not mine lah.. It was made by Shanice, Cassandra and Yun Cui.. Mingli, Hameezah and I did vanilla.. And apparently, the guys did vanilla also.. so, the machine was like super full.. when it was done, the machine is filled to the brim with vanilla ice cream and it not really fully done.. at least its not rock solid like the choco ones. then we had lunch at 1130. went to hav mac there... it was relatively cheap compared to the prices outside.. then we went for a lecture about food evaluation.. was eating Skittles all the way.. then we got to eat again.. for food evaluation test.. the first one had our noses clipped while we tried different solutions.. they tasted familar but we don't know exactly what is it... then we were given the names of them.. Lime, sweet orange, blueberry, strawberry and passion fruit.. second day is do hand cream.. learnt sth about medicines that day.. it sounded boring but its cool to know what are the medications for.. then the lecturer taught us briefly about acne and what can be used to treat it and its side effects. pretty scary.. And girls.. DON'T EVER USE BLOTTING PAPER!!!!!!!! that's what the lecturer said.. It makes us more prone to acne.. No one wants any on their faces right? Unless they are not in their right minds.. then the last day.. It was BORING!!! We did the practical on cells.. I CAN'T FIND MY CHEEK CELLS!!!! And i did the experiment twice for crying out loud.. Nor can i identify yeast cells and i can't get the correct focus for my chains of bacteria cells in my yogurt.. its down right pathetic.. And their microscopes are also powerful.. At least i can get to see the lower epiderml layer of a green veggie.. The stomata looks so cute!!!!! also can see the onion cells.. That as super boring.. hell... everyone done that one before already lor... and the most appalling thing is that the course isn't environmentally friendly.. They made us throw away ALL THE DROPPERS used or unused.. and also the cute little bottles that they placed iodine and all the stuff that we need.. A total of 7 per person.. Its such a waste of resources.. we learnt about DNA and how its formed.. Also how does it form RNA and all that... it was cool.. Bu i was falling asleep half way.. Heh.. feeling guilty for doing that.. |
