Ralph.
OH CRAP I CAN’T DO A READ MORE CUT. ANYWAY…
Yeah I know a Ralph. He was an old crush, freshman year in high school (until sometime around sophomore year). We used to talk* a lot. He was hilarious and really patient. Even when I was already bitching out sometimes, he’d still be really cool about it and even tries to make me feel better when I’m pissed or whatever. But then we gradually drifted apart. Now we don’t even talk anymore, and I doubt he remembers me.
I don’t recall having any experiences with him since we rarely saw each other. I think I only saw him twice in one year. (when I said rarely, I meant rarely)
A random fact about him: he has Greek blood (well, that’s what he said anyway)
*- had conversations through text
“On Saturday, give it your best. Show them that you, all of you, can pass the UPCAT. Make it good. Otherwise, all the blame would go to me because I fought for you. I fought for you for three years because I know what you’re capable of.

i missed school today.
… for research. we`re gathering data today, and we thought we needed the WHOLE day to do it (since we also have to prepare two more sets). in the end, we couldn`t use the lab in the morning `cause their students have lab work to do. so we can only perform our experiments in the afternoon. sayang, we could`ve entered our morning classes.
so i have this awesome mom…
… who`s gonna buy me a new camera this month mainly because the camera she bought for me just eight short months ago has decided to bitch out and not function. and did i mention that i did not get screamed at, nor have i gotten reprimanded even if the damage was primarily caused by mishandling? i would even get a better camera (it`s between the Canon Ixus 200IS and the Sony TX5. the one i broke was a Canon PowerShot A480). i am extremely lucky and blessed to have a mom who loves me too much.. :)
UPCAT Permit
Finally received our UPCAT permits last week (i think), and i finally feel like i actually have a good future ahead of me. yeah that`s kind of pathetic and stupid, since it`s only a test permit. but hey, some people aren`t even given the opportunity to take the UPCAT. so i`ll be flaunting my test permit with my misspelled name and dry-sealed picture.
for the record, it`s NOEMI. not Neomi. :|
Research…
it`s been keeping us quite busy these past three weeks. we`ve missed numerous classes, a physics quiz and discussion, drafting plates, meetings, and who-knows-what-else-could`ve-been-going-on-in-school-while-we-were-gone.. but after numerous contaminations and repetitions, we`re still here, giving all we`ve got for it, and ready to sacrifice everything we can to yield good results.
P.S. some pictures that I just feel like posting :)
- a contaminated sample. this is just bad. :(
- preparing the solutions for observation.
- Candida utilis, dormant cells that had to be revived so we can use them
- how our brainstorming sessions (out of school) would usually look like.
- me and my girls ;)
- with our awesome research consultant who holds the answers to every question. ;)
and… that`s about it.
