here it goes..
wow wow...I am finished with my 2nd day of work le!!...
Heard from others that they had stuff like a meeting, orientation, briefing, whatever for something like a few hours to half a day before starting work and assigned to labs. But I only had a 10 minutes briefing and filling in of forms and stuff before I was sent into the first lab I would be working at. (I would go on a rotation to different labs after a few weeks but my supervisor hasn't drawn up a list.)

So I am now at Blood Group Testing Laboratory(BGT). Basically for the first day, I didn't do much except some minor stuff like helping to wash 3X saline, and centrifugation, and washing of microtitre plates and counting of forms. oh..and reading of SOP..lol. I could only observe and the lab officer in charge that day couldn't teach me much because she was SO busy. Coz on every monday, they are very very busy one coz have to process 2 days samples...from Sat and Sun. Then today, I took a half day leave to go for my driving Test (Which I passed by the way, YAHOO!!) and then by the time i went back, everything was done le...nothing for me to do except sit there and do nothing and read SOPs. Read for 2 days le..read until don't want to read le..haha..write notes somemore. Cause the lab finish doing stuff by 3pm everyday...then I knock off at 6.00-6.30pm like that..Then I finally got a chance to ask my supervisor if I can pop by the other labs(although not assigned there yet) to help out and learn. Then she say sure!...at first I ask the lab officer of BGT but she say unless your supervisor allow loh..coz she say different "territory" then she don't know can anot. But now can le...I tomorrow onwards can "crash" other labs le...she recommend I go crossmatching first..muahaha...and find the Mr-nice-and a-lot-of-stories-guy: Mr. Kang. lol..first day already play host to me..bring me go lunch, tell me stories..Just like how alvin poh say he's like. lol..then everytime see him also smile smile and say hello. Actually most people there very nice. And surprisingly ah...the staff population for the CTM labs (Just the people doing CTM labwork ah) not alot leh!..can always see the familar faces around. Then all very nice people. lol..always say funny (sometimes lame) things..no wonder alvin poh was like that..muahahaha

So so..hopefully tml onwards I can do more stuff in the BGT lab. then finish BGT, can go over to Xmatching in the afternn..and I got to ask my supervisor about my Major Project(MP) today. she got some projects in mind le...actually is projects that she's been wanting to get people together to do...but always no time for meeting and stuff...so she say I can do them...maybe on a smaller scale though. And when she was discussing some details of the project to me, I realised why I came into this course lol...for that instant. Cause when she was explaining to me...I feel as if there was a sparkle in my eye..lol..so excited by the project. At least I got a rough idea on what I am doing. Interesting. Update on that next time..

So..looking forward to tomorrow!..reporting at work at 8am..waking up at 6.15am..What?!...and I am still here!?!?!...better go sleep now..
