Let's talk about how Science is a B***ch.

Today is most disappointing.. actually make that yesterday AND today. It's worse than disappointing. It's outright cruel. I am here, again in Sydney to repeat my previously observed results. Going to do the whole proving my hypothesis shit, y'know.

Yesterday, I started off with GREAT responses from my positive cells- suffice to say, that's what I wanted to see. I was floating on Cloud 9 you know. My life was reaffirmed coz like, man.. I can do science!! Great great great.. I can apply for conferences, I can travel and dude, JOBS and stuff!! My PhD! YEAY! I can do science!!!

Ya. It all came crashing down when my negative cells showed the SAME effing response. Use your power of deduction boys and girls... what does that tell you about my results?? And so I stayed till midnight, hoping against hope that maybe it's a random few cells..

Well, it looks like not.

Let's all have a pity party for me. I think I want to go home and cry now.

Adventures of one Mrs. Wong in The Land Down Under

Mrs. Wong on her first (windy) Sunday in St. Kilda, with Gerald and Ginger (GG's). Mrs. Wong's first weekend in Melbourne- getting acquainted to Melbournian lifestyle with a cocktail in the afternoon! Mrs. Wong on the Great Ocean Road- she didn't like the cold wind (which was pretty frightful for Spring, but she thinks it was quite exciting). This trip involved a lot of very cold tiny Asian people scurrying from the People Mover (the car) to the spot of interest, peering out of their hoods/ scarves/ jackets for 30 seconds and mumbling through frozen lips "Ah, very nice" and back again to the comfort of the car. In the background is the 7 and 1/2 Apostles (formerly known as 12 Apostles). Said Mrs. Wong on her first winery tour around the Mornington Peninsula. Despite the rather chilly morning, she still couldn't resist Gelati. Sometimes I wonder who the kid is... (picture taken at Sunny Ridge Strawberry Farm, where us being Asians, proceeded to almost wiping ou...

Kinabalu Park, Part Deux

Mount Kinabalu was beautiful. On the first day at the National Park, we stayed at a hostel 500 m away. Once we dropped our bags and organized ourselves (or rather Jamil organized us) at the Park, we set out for hikes at the base of the Park. There were a few trails that ranged from a few hundred meters to approximately 2 km. It was quite amazing at how quiet it was- as in, we hiked for close to 4 hours and did not meet a single soul along the way. My favourite trail was the Bundu Tuhan trail. Not very long and a fairly steep hike, we reached the lookout and was rewarded with a beautiful view of the Kinabalu ranges. Although the view may not have been the best that we had during this trip, but because the spot was so isolated and quiet, I felt as if it's my own little patch on a hill. After spending some time admiring the view and contemplating life as one does when on a hill, we made our way down and back to the hostel, right before the heavens decided to pour down on us.
