Palladium

Finally I made it to 6!

Zinc

Was looking at some job postings for the past 1 hr plus, there seemed to be MANY, but I just suddenly feel so so so lost. WHY CHEMISTRY SO DIFFICULT :(
Should be waiting for the bird to chip again today sighpie

Lithium

From the first day we met (22 sept 2012), I never thought that one day you would be so important to me. Perhaps that's called fate that brought us together :')

Helium

And the cold wind blows.
And the morning bird is chirping with that familiar pitch ☺
2 datelines off the list.

Hydrogen

Perhaps this is one of the portal I could use to rant.
URGH but it's definitely not the purpose of this blog.
Starting to feel the panicky again, realizing how much I have not understood yet.

Time and tide wait for no man.

Selenium

I'm a super awesome procrastinator and this is no good sigh

Magnesium

#Yesterday we went to eat watami agn! Seriously we always ended up with the same set meal (:

Squash

Yesterday we had a squash session. First time meeting and playing squash with your friends as well. It was tiring but overall it was great. It never came to my mind that one day we would be playing squash together ♥

That feeling of being left alone

wednesday

My morale is very very very low today.

Mercury

At this time. It just feels so gloomy. Im still lagging behind but I jus have no motivation.

Cyanide

It was a horribly strenuous full shift as always. But its alright I wont be doing this as often anymore. Kinda contradicting as this was the path that I've chosen, but im starting to judge myself now. Why I put myself through these? What am I trying to prove?  What do I stand to gain from these?

But nonetheless, these still gave me hope and made me feel alive. And that slightest passion that I have keeps me burning on. #Throwback saturday

Molybdenum

Western food at Commonwealth coffeeshop. Satisfied cravings of pasta (omg it was damn good) we should go there again.

Busy week again, school just suck big time.

Waiting for fri's Watami with ♥ . I think its the only thing that keeps me slightly motivated?!

Push on dearie♥

Cytus

#Throwback 6th March. The day I tried my cooking skills once again. Pasta time! I never cooked so much food for someone so you are the first so don't fly away okay. You talk too much and so it will be your turn the next round! Make sure its is good. Thanks for the ice cream and beer♥.

Adding a random picture taken that time at the airport

Under a hypothetical situation, the Chinese government should decide to allocate its entire fund to protect the shark by reducing the consumption of shark's fin soup because conserving sharks are more impactful than conserving the pandas.  

                               
Firstly, the reduced consumption of shark's fin soup would reduce the number of sharks killed. Sharks are positioned at the top of the marine food chain as they are carnivores and they consume large varieties of fishes. Larger sharks may go to the extent of consuming dolphins and sea lions¹. With more sharks in the sea, it better balances the food chain as they tend to feed on weak, old and unhealthy marine creatures, hence reducing the spread of diseases among the marine population². This way, we could maintain the population of healthy marine life for fisheries to catch and in return for us to consume. Panda have a smaller and a less significant impact on the food chain as they are primary consumers. They are nowhere close to the top of the food chain.

Secondly, the shark’s fin is often obtained by cruel approach. It involves slicing off of the shark’s fins while the shark is still alive and dumping the rest of its body back into the ocean as it does not have a great deal of monetary value. They will die within days as they could not fight for survival³. Without fins, the sharks would not be able to swim and they would fall prey to other sea creatures. This is animal cruelty as the sharks have to go through so much suffering just for a bowl of soup⁴. To illustrate with an example, chickens are killed first before they are processed to be consumed. However in the case of sharks, they were not killed first before finning. This is another crucial reason why we should reduce the consumption of shark’s fin soup.

Certainly, there are reasons to why we should save the panda instead. The panda, being big, loveable and cute as compared to sharks, are a larger attraction that is relatively easier and cheaper to maintain. The panda can also generate or help to develop a tertiary industry of eco-tourism as they are an important cultural icon for Chinese people⁵. They can also be viewed at ease and are more accessible by the general public as compared to sharks.

In conclusion, the impact of sharks surviving is more important than the panda. Even though the panda serves as a very important tourist attraction, even for the case of Singapore e.g. Kai Kai and Jia Jia at the River Safari⁶, they play a small part in the food web and we have to look at the bigger picture for environment sustainability in the case of the marine life ecosystem. We do not consume pandas, but we do consume seafood to a large extent in all parts of the world. Therefore we would still need the marine life to carry on survival and hence provides us with long term seafood commodity.

We ran our second 2XU HM on 2nd March 2014, and we finished the race injury-free (not mentioning the cramps). It was truly a different experience and atmosphere. In a blink of an eye, it would be sundown soon!

Thank you for doing things for me. Even if its just a small gesture (like helping me to take the massage queue number and snacks), it really melts my heart. I'm glad to have someone who will put my interest first and making me comfortable in every way possible.

I'm a girl who loves hugs, and most importantly, yours. 

Tired faces

Dream

We started the day at 9am (this ungodly hour) and ended the day with a super hearty dinner!

Had a tour around Terminal 1, 2 and 3 at Changi airport, acting as if we were going for a holiday! It was lame but yeah, it was a simulation for next times right.

Landmark

Okay we should not have ate so much during dinner but oh wells we will kill all the calories tomorrow. 21.1km 2XU marathon in the next few hours. So we shall sleep NAO.

Just feel kinda HAPPY the way you got worried about my flying skirt (:

Mirror Night

Overslept and gave up going to sch:/ Reprimanded by mummy but we were okay in a while so it was fine. Went to work thereafter. The sun was too hot and I think it FRIED MY BRAINS so deep inside my head is giving me nerves. This is insane. It was only around 3 minutes of extreme and direct sunlight.

Heard the new menu is launching soon. Hope we do have new staff meals! (Because I'm really sick of the food already) And the $3 outside pasta was damn awesome. This have to be life's simple pleasures.

Seeing you in less than 8 hours. I wonder what would we be doing after our race pack collection.
