Reaffirming the Supremacy of the Federal Constitution

In view of the recent events that has occurred. Some of you must have known that decisions made on some sensitive cases in the country have drawn strong criticisms from the public. It is important therefore that being a democratic country and a country tolerant of all faiths, right decisions have to be made in accordance with the constitution, which truly represent all races in this country regardless of creed or colour.

A petition has been drawn out to the Malaysian Government in an effort to reaffirm the supremacy of the Federal Constitution.

Everything Heroes...

This seems to be a complete waste of time. Posting something that has already existed. The title speaks for itself. The NBC website on Heroes is already filled with all the necessary information one would need to digest, and even if it is physiologically possible to perform such a thing, our stomach would have problems taking in every information unless of course if we do have the extra compartments of a cow.

So most probably, the human body would excrete all the information as wastes, maybe in the form of a very watery, loose secretion known as diarrhoea.

How on earth would I be able to condense so much information in this space? Though I had the intention to do such a thing I wouldn't, because its plagiarizing information that is the sole property of the company who had created Heroes. I guess I had already posted enough of gibberish... before I go to the real matter.



As you might already know, I'm quite a big fan of Heroes. I decided to check out their website if it offered any sort of Ability Analyzer or something of that sort. Lo and behold, their website did offer such a thing, and its simply called the Ability Quiz.

After answering all the questions the FIRST TIME, I did have an ability and guess what...

The ability to sling webs... I was like what?? Spiderman??




Considering that Spiderman 3 is juz around the corner. Could this be an ulterior motive to promote the third show in its most subtle way to misinterpret my abilities as a web slinger. Not that I despise Spiderman. I love it and thanks to Alex I can watch it for free. Way to go dude. I digress....

Can't they just give me some character that I can relate to? Well I don't know. Maybe there will be a "spiderman" character later on in the show. Fine I know I shouldn't complaint. I can be a Hero...HAHA

Oh yes. My Fav Hero is Hiro Nakamura.

Arrggghhh...Bacterial Contamination!!!

In what I call "The worst bacterial contamination possibly " in IMU Research Lab history, it caused quite a stir for me here at the postgraduate lab. I absolutely did not know what to do. It kinda was like a brick fell on my teeny-weeny little toes. Minus the swelling, it caused quite an equal amount of pain emotionally. I had to dump 9 out of 10 of my culture flasks.

Bacteria was literally swimming through their self-made currents in the medium which was supposed to sustain and allow growth of my breast cancer cells. It turned out that I have been breeding Bacillus and Cocci species along with my poor MCF 7 cells throughout the weekend.

Dr. Yiap told me to pray....

And I said, "Ya, OK so that the cells can grow."

He said, "No. Not just that. So that bacteria wouldn't grow together with your cells!!!."

Ok, Ya I did pray. But it seems that it only worked for the previous batch. The one where Dr. Yiap had last handled the cells before he passed them to me.

Hmmm....

The Bacilli was wriggling in the medium, sort of twitching back and forth from head to tail, ok that's if they actually had those parts anatomically speaking. Maybe they have a head cause at higher power they really had those small bobs at one end. For the cocci, it was more like a bit of swimming plus a little bit of vibratory movements.

My cell culture turn out to be a bacteria culture. What a waste of lab resources. Cell Culture guru, Bazlin came and confirm my suspicion, and she let off a soft "Ewww...." and immediately she told me that I have to dispose of it but before that each of the contaminated flasks had to be bleached before disposing them.

Iggy had a great time looking and feeling geli by the bacteria. Pictures were taken also but sorry no photos at the moment, maybe later on.

But really, it is an invaluable experience to see how bacteria look like in a contaminated cell culture flask. I say this not in the sense of having pride from this achievement but as a lesson that should be learn.

*****From now on, I have to really be careful on my sterile techniques. Probably I shouldn't start off with too many culture flasks.*****

IMU BALL - Bella Noche

Not interested in writing a long post on this one. Last year's Ball at Marriott, was better in terms of the food and the ballroom was so pack this year. Marriott had more breathing space. But they were performances this year. But I really loved the funny flash video last year

Immediately after the ball, we went to Mont Kiara , to celebrate Clarissa's birthday at Starbucks, near Plaza Mont Kiara. Supposedly Starbucks was 24/7 but thanks to the misinformation from Calvin, we all had to go to Coffee Bean, which is also open 24 hrs. To our great frustration, even Coffee Bean closed early!!

Eeshhh... With all the tired faces, and the some smeared mascara and the unforgettable zombie Alicia look. We decided that Sri Hartamas was the way to go, and there it was we stopped by at Warong Uncle Don's and their specialty there was the Shisha and their splendid waffles. Their waffles are really good.


This is waffle with vanilla ice cream blended with honey, peanut butter and topped up with banana split.

There are a whole lot of varieties at Uncle Don's but don't be fooled by the photo. They actually serve quite a large portion and it's good supper which made the ball dinner forgettable.

Clarissa had a "Waffle" cake, and all of us enjoyed the waffles there though we were quite curious about the Shisha nearby. But we'll save that for another day..

We left at about 3 in the morning at reached home at about 3.20. Thankfully, Hartamas was a place that kind of never sleeps even at that time. Most of us were still quite awake when we left Uncle Don's but when I reach home, my brain was already beginning to shut down before my body could. After everything, I slept at 4...Wat a day...
