Insignificant lab bug!






My life isn't all that great at the moment.the lab exp got screwed because the 15 hr duration odf analysis was cut to 5 hour analysis thanks to faulty plate counter..and one of the blank sample got contaminated..even though i pipetted in the laminarhood..talk about faulty lab researcher with her faulty plate reading machine..as a result, my hard work for three days got screwedup,and the merciless bugs ( e coli) ,i just let them grow in the waste bin with no food,no air and ultimatley kill them on monday.. they deserve it,fancy them; getting contaminated and not give me any readings( i refuse to see my carelessness)....I just have to get back on mon and start with the 3 day exoperiment all over again..(groan)..

I am even more terrorised about the fact ,currently my supervisor has gone to norway to attend an important conferemnce..When she gets back,think she is gonna get mad at me for not getting any readings..have u ever had those days when u feel like ure worse than the most insignificant bug in the lab?yeah guess,today was my day...blimey..



To top it all,I forgot that today was the Annual Summer Barbecue Dinner Party held at my office.One look at the rest room mirror and i feel so under dressed,in a blue jean and a very normal tee with hair pulled back with no make up on...I cant believe that some of my lab mates have actually taken half day,rusehd home to get dressed for the big event..Iam gonna look like a lost soul..total freak..


I wish i was a lab bug..could grow and give results to my researchers..just be not fussy at all..The only good thing about today is its a friday and this week end, iam gonna relax and stay put at home..k..gtg...



Psst : The person in the pic is my pal Zhou - how he retaliates with incompetant lab procedures :P
