Doggy! :D

Common test day! Sigh… hahaha personally I think the paper was doable. At least I don’t think I will lose too many marks if I’m not careless. I think. After the common test today, we went out for some industrial visit at a biopharmaceutical factory. ^ ^ yay!

I found another stall that sells jajangmyeon! I think this one was better than the one I ate before. I asked for no chili oil so the noodles are not so oily. This means I can eat the good bits! The minced meat at the bottom along with the crunchy veggie(got no idea what it is). Yummy!!! <3

Le jajangmyeon~~~ ^ ^

Right after lunch, we went to the suoermarket right below the canteen we were lunching at and bought eight bottles of 1.5 litres of water. I decided to be macho and carried all eight of the bottles from the mart to our apartment. The most tiring thing is, on the way back, I had to climb uphill little! And we just had to stay at level 5 in a building without elevators so I had to lug the eight bottles up the five and a half flight of stairs since apparently the ground floor isn’t taken as level 1. My arms were so sore and tired when I lift them up, you can see both arms and hands trembling. When I try to tap on something on my tablet, my fingers weren’t cooperating with me. T.T bet I have muscle ache tomorrow! But at least it was exercise. XP

The industrial visit was really interesting! The whole building is designed like a grid, all straight hallways and sharp corners. Since it’s a factory that makes and packages  IV (intravenous)related products, the whole place was under strict cleanliness and they take sterilization very seriously. We had to wear a plastic bag over our shoes(I call them shoe socks) to prevent us from tracking mud and dirt into the compound. Then after that, we had to put on lab coats and a hat to contain our hair. Then finally, we can begin our tour. Because we got there in the afternoon, the place wasn’t as busy. Our guide also said we arrived too late, and some of the production lines already stopped for the day. I was a little disappointed, because I wanted to see how the product is made before they packaged it. But because we have so many people, we have to split into groups to tour. I went in the last group, so I didn’t get to see the production line, but the guide said the first group managed to see it. T.T

The guide brought us to the packaging lines, the sterilization lines, and the water distilling lines. He also explained the different types of ways to ready an IV solution(at least I think it is for IV solution since we were mostly talking about Intravenous drips, so yeah… there were different bottles with different bottles. Glass bottles and polypropylene bottles, 250ml and 500ml bottles. And the different forms of the IV solution. The concentrated form that needs to be mixed with saline before it can be injected into the patient, the ready-made form that can be used immediately, and the powdered form, that also has to be mixed into saline solution before it can be used. And then we took a look at the water distilling process. This process converts the normal tap water into highly sterilized and cleaner water. Our guide told us the water they distil is cleaner than the bottled water we drink here! We didn’t get to see much before we had to leave the compound, so I was a little sad, but at least I don’t have to study today! Yay! :D

On the bus, Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull was playing(I think) and I was so into watching the show! I almost yelled when the bus driver turned it off when we arrived at the school. It was just at the funny part too! I was chuckling the whole way, with Xenia dozing on and off beside me. The show got turned off just before Indiana Jones was pulled out of quicksand by his son, using an anaconda. I laughed when Indiana pointed out to his son that that was an anaconda he was holding onto, and then the driver turned off the TV. T.T why???????

me, Mei Zi and Pris

isn't she beautiful? 

Oh yes, while waiting, we went to a field near the factory. The grass there was so long, it was like a thick green and brown(dried grass) carpet! So nice to walk on! Teehee :D and while walking from the bus to the factory(the roads are too narrow), a stray dog trotted past us. I was totally entranced by it. It was grey-brown, the color almost like that of a wolf, and totally fluffy! It was so cute!!!!!!!!!! I just wanted huggle it and bring it home… T.T but then our China coordinator noticed my interest(more like spazzing) in the dog and he asked me if I liked dogs. I told him yes(duh) and he showed pictures of his own dog! She was so pretty! It was a rough collie mix, and he got her from the streets a few months ago. She is larger than a normal purebred rough collie, but she is still very pretty, and very friendly. I had so much fun with her! I’m going to go play with her again when I have the time. ^ ^

Dr Sujit left for Singapore today. Sighs. We’ll miss teasing him with miss Mikia… but miss Mikia also leaving on this Sunday, so sad. But this Sunday will be interesting! We’ll be having a party with the local students and then we might party by ourselves too. Teehee :D

Speaking of parties, me and my apartment mates were having fun blasting some KPop music and singing along with it. I think I got a little too excited, cos now I think I crashed from the high just now. LOL but it was really fun for a while~ kekeke

Tomorrow we have two lectures. The lecture from the dean about Buddhism and Taoism in the morning and then forensic science lecture in the afternoon. Sighs. Gotta wake up early again. T.T at least I don’t have to study tonight. Need a little break from all that mugging. Phew!

Gonna go do some web surfing and sleep! Must wake early tomorrow T.T hurhurhur Nights! Peace out~~~ ^ ^
