Arinih buat cell passage
Penat tapi best
Pagi tuh tgk demo RA dr y
Petang tuh turn aku plak

Dem, RA tuh buat 2 jam
Aku buat 4 jam
Giloss
Nasib dr y tuh jenis yg memang tgk sebjjik2 aku buat
Sampai cara handle pippette pon dia nak tgk
Mmg banyak salah pon, sbb working with cell kena betul2 tgk environment
Kalau tersalah angle dah boleh bunuh cell tuh

Aku plak jenis kasar
Aku rasa dia seram kot tgk cara aku goncang flask etc
Sampai berapa kali dia cakap gentle gentle
Hahahah

Tapi it is an interesting experiment
Lepas nih kena buat everyweek
Sukanyaaa
Takdelaa boring cam buat prepare sample kann
Walaupon dalam sakit tulang belakang
Tp enjoy laa buat tadi

Sempat dr y tunjuk aku stent untuk arteri tersumbat tuh
Not in market yet
Company tuh hantar kat dia utk testing
Dia bukak kotak tu depan aku
Betul la kot apa prof t cakap
Dia nih mmg terer
Dahlaa budak intern dia x putus2
Tapi suka laa dia sbb dia mmg ajar sebijik2
Maybe sebab benda tu baru bagi aku
So aku rasa interesting sangat
Bila ko tanya pun dia jawap panjang lebar

Esok back to sengen
Prepare sample prof t plak
Aku dahlaa seram mesin hpt tuh
Besar kot...nanti nak mintak dia beli tangga laa tuk aku
X larat aku nak panjat tiap kali nak masuk sample

So officially dah lebih 4 bulan sini
Terfikir gak, sempat ke aku nak siap nih
Dengan corrosion nya lagik
Dengan material baru lagik
Dengan biotest nih lagik

Bulan depan dah kena prepare paper utk conference okinawa tuh
Kena buat kerja abis2an before balik mesia nanti

Penat,
Baru settle buat reagent utk cell test
Walaupon penat, tp best gak buat experiment tadi
Masuk clean room suma
Kena pakai baju cam keja kilang electronic tuh
Pastuh air shower lagik
Dapat notebook and pen spesel utk clean room




Pastuh masa prepare sample mmg tergagap2 gak
Tgk dr y buat laju gila
Sekali bila aku buat lembap nak mampus
Mana nak pegang pipet lagi
Mana nak rotate bekas atas flame lagik
At the same time kena maintain hand movement takut contaminated
Mmg kelam kabut laa aku

Tp after siap, dr y puji
Cakap dia dah lama mengajar buat biotest nih
And have taught many people
Tp dia cakap aku antara the best gitewww
Kembang i kejap
Kalau kat us dulu, bila kena puji just kena cakap thank you
Tp kat jepun nih, ko kena rendahkan diri dulu before accept the compliment wahaha
But i feel appreciated though
Harap2 dia maintain ok ngan aku

End of month ada budak phd dr warsaw univ akan datang intern bawah dia
So dia ckp nanti aku ada kawan lah kat situ nanti

So schedule aku nanti every week memang kena datang namiki twice weekly
Sbb dari gaya kerja tadi, nak prepare reagent pon makan sehari suntuk
Esok prepare cell plak, lagi susah dari arinih..
Every week kena maintain detached cell plak
Next week baru bleh start letak cell atas sample

Minggu nih pun kena prepare sample utk Prof T jugak
Dia nak measure amorphous phase guna viscoelastic test
Nih pon test yg aku x pernah buat lagik
Sempat tak siap agak2

Harinih tak posa
So blessing in disguise jugak
Tapi seksa gak buat kerja dalam keadaan menstrual cramp+back ache
Huhuhu

App review for ipad
I mainly used my ipad for my labwork and also for my reading
It is such a convinient to read paper from my ipad as i can do my reading while i do my polishing
And also while i am in bed
I also do major editing for my lab report and presentation
And it is easier to carry around to show my work to my sv too

So here is my heavily used apps




1. Goodreader (paid): must have!!! I read my textbook (pdf) in good reader because i cam easily annotate on it, and even leave bookmark so that i can revisit important info shud i need them again in future. most of ipad user swears by this

2. Dropbox (free) : cloud computing at its best. I used it mainly to transfer file from my desktop to ipad. You can install uploader in your mac/pc too so it will sync perfectly

3. Papers (free) : for my journal collection. Since i have papers on my macbook pro, i can sync my papers from ipad to mac. I also can used this for citation. This is like endnote but much better. Mac only

4. Mendeley (free): like Papers, but for windows. I dont like the intrrface, but my main pc at work is windows, so this is the only alternative. You can do citation too if you install the desktop app in your pc.

5. Merlin: kinda like microsoft project. Used it to record my progress. Mac only





6. Penultimate (paid): i bought this because sometimes i do notetaking with my pen. So this is in my opinion the best notetaking apps, plus it works perfectly with my ipad pen.

7. Ps express (free): for simple picture editing. Sometimes i uploaded some graph or figures for my presentation, so i usually edit it using this.

8: Keynote (paid). Must have. It is for powerpoint presentation. I love all the simple feature. Plus i also used keynote on my mac.

9. Pages (paid): Must have. This is the microsoft words for mac and ipad

10. Wunderlist (free) : to do apps. Very useful if you have lots of stuff to do adn you can sync this to your desktop too. I used this on my macbook for sometimes, but they just released the ipad apps. Must have.

11. Blogpress(paid): for blogging.

So this is few of many apps i have downloaded. But for work purposes, this is the main things that i think a must have in ipad especially for researcher.

Will update more later.

tadi sensei suruh pergi ikut bebudak nih pasang anvil
aku tukang tengok je laa
taknak aku kang debu2 masuk mata
dah laa main ngan power drill
takde masa aku nak join

so kerja aku jadi tukang pura2 interested

anyway
dah sebulan dah dekat nims nih
how was it?

i love it!
walaupon duduk dalam cubicle ciput jek
tapi rasa tenang jek duduk sini

dalam group aku ada 2 orang je pompuan
sorang budak master

just when i thought MSE was mainly dominated by women
not in here
sebab tuh siap ada incentive for woman researcher
ntah laa

but aku suka dan selesa duduk sini
my senpai (almost all from China)
is very helpful
in all sense

harap2 perasaan aku ni kekal laaa

got good news this morning
finally the email i have anxiously wait for last few months finally arrived
punyalaa panjang doa aku before bukak the said email
and imagine how happy i am
bila baca ayat

This letter is to inform you that you are
qualified the document screening of XXX , have been selected as a
recipient of the travel award to visit XXX take the interview for
the XXX graduate research assistantship as well as the entrance
examination to the Graduate Program of Materials Science and Engineering
at the XXX

Alhamdulillah!
syukur kepada Tuhan

terus call akmal..tapi tetiba ada awek jepun plak jawap
so sms je laaa..kena bagitau mak jah ni dulu sbb dia tolong aku suma tuh, kang dia cakap aku derhaka plak
pastuh baru bgtau mak aku
(teruk tol aku nih..akmal dulu baru mak hahaha)

at least one hurdle dah lepas
now next step, kena contact Prof T plak
and kena show my determination
nak kena korek balik slide master dulu
and prepare new slides for entrance exam

Prof T nih dah laa grad from northwestern univ, big ten U tuh
cam aku gak ah hahaha
no wonder english dia superb
dia punya research pon very fundamental
more on phase transformation, sma,

aku pun looking for something very fundamental
not application
sbb aku rasa inilaa benda aku paling susah nak faham masa belajar dulu
dislocation, band gap energy, fermi level, diffusion
tapi bila tak faham tuh laa makin kita nak tahu kan

doakanlah perjalanan aku nih smooth
amin
mungkin inilah hijrah aku :)
