In the multitudes of experiences, one must experience heaven and hell. Where one sets one's beliefs in unmoving stone, that is one's faith. And mine is set in love, in companionship, in living. And music, beauty, words, smiles, laughter, magic and coffee.

the previous post
it does not make sense if you google translate cos spanish got all those weird signs above the letters which i did not copy. so a lot of words dont get translated/dont make sense
Regresa A Mi
Okay, i have this random urge to type down the lyrics of this song. Not copy/paste. typed. LOL
No me abandones asi
Hablando solo de ti
Ven y devuelveme al fin
La sonrisa que se fue
Una vez mas tocar tu piel
Recuperemos lo que se ha perdido
Regresa a mi
Quere me otra vez
Borra el dolor
Que al irte me dio
Cuando te separate de mi
Dime que si
Yo no quiero llorar
Regresa a mi
Extrano el amor que se fue
Extrano la dicha tambien
Quiero que vengas a mi
Y me vuelvas a querer
No puedo mas sit u no estas
tienes que lgar
Mi vida se apaga sin ti a mi lado
No me abandonas asi
Hablando solo de ti
Devuelveme la passion de tus brazos
No me abandones asi
Hablando solo de ti
Ven y devuelveme al fin
La sonrisa que se fue
Una vez mas tocar tu piel
Recuperemos lo que se ha perdido
Regresa a mi
Quere me otra vez
Borra el dolor
Que al irte me dio
Cuando te separate de mi
Dime que si
Yo no quiero llorar
Regresa a mi
Extrano el amor que se fue
Extrano la dicha tambien
Quiero que vengas a mi
Y me vuelvas a querer
No puedo mas sit u no estas
tienes que lgar
Mi vida se apaga sin ti a mi lado
No me abandonas asi
Hablando solo de ti
Devuelveme la passion de tus brazos

Sunday 15th May 11:34 (okay, this is late, dad came back and had to move over back to grandma's place)
So yea, i shall just finish up this post
The Sidik period of events (At least mine)
Mum's bday on 7th May
Dad's Bday on 14th May
Ama's Bday on 15th May
Gong's Anniversary on 17th May
hai... it's late at night, and I am at my uncle's place waiting for dad... he went for Andrea Bocelli's concert, if i got the spelling of that dude right that is... well... I think so ba... Unless i got the Bocelli wrong...
My cousins are asleep above me, my grandma and her sister are in a room which door is 6 metres away from me at 1.30 direction... Not at chempaka putih, (so have internet access) well, i doubt anyone would know where the shit i am anyway eh...
A quick description of this place... I am on this relatively huge table, 4 metres long, 1 metre+ wide... black. infront of me it this random frame with nothing but a random flower motif in it.... which is rather pretty, its transparent and black floral patterns. Behind that screen would be a plasma tv and some sofas and stuff... futher behind that is the balcony, from which a stairs would lead to swimming pool...
OK FINE, i dont wanna continue describing that place le, in singapore now and cant really recall the details so yea.

Day 2 of Exams
Well, now that my head is clearer, let's take a look at this...
LOL, Keith Loke thought i take malay as mother tongue, he was damn shock to see me doing gonghan, and was practically staring at my paper for like 10 seconds++ watching me write chinese LOL
Paper 1 was kinda screwed... >< super shit, i have no clue what i would be getting for it lor....
Paper 2 was better, but still, super fail, i thought it was 2 hours long, so was like planning to do a 30-45-45 for MCQ-Compre1-Compre2 timing, so when it was 15 minutes left, i was about to start compre2, i was like, "shit, GG, 15 minutes for compre2" lucky it was not too hard, and i managed to finish it on time, still got time look at victor rushing his compre xD
haha, math was fucking fun! like seriously fucking fun! super tiring and damn tough (for me) but i totally loved it lor! damn long have not done mathematics test/exams which actually gave me a sense of satisfaction (: totally awesome!!!!
Haha, then last night was pretty fine till i had to interact with people. took my bath, prep the house, then watched tv, sis came home, did not talk much. then parents came home, ate dinner. After that, i switched on lappie to check on whether Simin and Samantha came online since 8pm. lol, so i checked back and forth during tv advertisements (and yes, this is the only time i had watched tv properly for a really long time xD)
then dad came and kope the laptop, he disconnected the laptop from power supply without switching the powersupply off, damn WTF la, last time he scold me for charging laptop wrongly, then now he did that. WTFWTFWTF
Then i dont care, signed out of msn then logged into desktop. then after that just switched it off at the next commercial break, screw smp la, was fucking tired.
Then my mum passed me my phone, fucking irritating, just as i was about to sleep, cock la, i had to switch laptop on cos i had no phone, and YES, tuition! mum was scolding me why never tell tuition teacher i was not coming the following day, and i was like "WTF, where is my phone?" in my heart like duh, then went to call his home number. ya, anyway, then i was lying on the bed, then convo with mum
Mum"you wanna sleep le?"
Me"no"
Mum"you want on aircon?"
I obviously dont mind right? so damn bloody hot, i was already lying on my bed in only my boxers
Me"i dont mind"
so yea, mum switched aircon on.
so there, was smsing samantha telling her what to do, and she had to talk so much shit halfway through i realised i should have smsed simin instead of her. the whole point i smsed her was bcos i thought she would be damn dao and just like, "ok." and shuddup, end up she ask so much bloody questions and suddenly her last sms was "bull." WTFFFFF
i left my phone on my room table and laid on my bed, then after that smsed her a few more times, making sure she knows what she was supposed to do. then still no fking reply.
then after that, dad came into my room, i told him i was sleeping, (indeed i was asleep until he came in) then dad go look at my phone, i had a new sms, so i snatched the phone back. It was from a friend. then mum came in, and dad told her i was asleep
So mum got damn fucking mad, she scolded me for not returning the phone, then i got caned. (like so damn fucking long never get cane le) then after that she took my phone away.
I went online again afterwards(and did the previous post) mum came out and scolded me again and ask me to go to sleep. WTF man, just got caned and scolded you expect people go to sleep? i ended up lying on my bed screaming silently and hitting my head until i slept... damn

Organelles
It just struck me if some random person somehow entered my blog, they would think i am some hardcore nerd. anyway, ORGANELLE TIME!!!
Nucleus
Consist of Nuclear Membrane(2 layers) with pores (octets). Nucleolus.
DNA replicate here. All those stuff talk later in the later chapters la, anyway, ribosomes are made here, mix of RNA and proteins.
Ribosomes
60+40=80 Sveberg
With tRNA, translate mRNA into polypeptide
ER
Smooth synthesizes lipids carbohydrates and all the whatnot, in liver(especially) detoxify toxins.
Rough, produce proteins and stuff to send out of cell or to cell membrane(via golgi)
Golgi, post office and editor cis and trans sides, cis is incoming side, trans is going away, dynamic
Vacuoles, random balls in animals,
plants
1. trashbag
2. color holder
3. ensure turgidity
4. increase surface area: volume ratio
5. defensive chemicals holder
6. storage of good stuff?
7. i dunno liao shit
Lysosomes
Need activation from golgi. Consist of all the breaking down enzymes (lipase, proease, glucase, fructase, balalallala) generally lower pH for these enzymes to work.
Got primary lysosomes (fresh new nomnom) , secondary(nomnom already), autophagolysosomes (nomnom old organlles)
Mitochondria
Power houses. 3 layers? cisternae(like ERs) to increase surface area
Chloroplast
Power house. Consist of thylakoids. Photosynthesis. confirm 3 layers, but innermost layer extension.
Centrioles
Do nothing, plants dont have them

Corrections for lecture 1 and 2
Well...
Bright field, video, cofocal scanning.
TEM Negative staining, shadow casting, freeze fracture, freeze etching...
Stereoscopic/compound light microscopes.
EMBEDDING
Well, only 8, missing the fact that they are complex/organised (too in your face for me to remember which kinda sucks.)
It's called (disrupts solidification at lower temperatures.
Fluid Mosaic: Lateral movement of phospholipids in plane of membrane with patterns and arrangements of proteins as they move about in fluid.
[frankly speaking, i dont really see the significance of this...]
And its AMPHIPHATIC!!!!! 2 "H"s lol
And i totally forget about the -cytosis parts.
But well, endocytosis and exocytosis. Endo is out to in, got pino, phago, and receptor mediated) exo just got 1 kind. used for releasing things into ECM or adding protein and stuff to the membrane LOL.
That's all for 1-2!

Mugging for Bio
As you can see, i am not really mugging now lol. Should be mugging bio, and am trying to. Gonna be reading Lesson 8 next, aka, last lesson. When I am done with that, shall take a bath, and if time, churn out a few more notes. Shall finish up the notes after dinner, and after that, read through my own notes a few times, test myself, then do math. Then test myself again.
Well... Lets be random and try to churn out stuff I should know.
Lecture 1
Microscopy and Cell Theory
Microscopy:
Who invented the Microscope --> Robert Hooke 17th century
Types of Microscopes:
SEM: Not elaborated on
TEM: elaborated a lot
Fix, dehydrate, stain, (shit one more here, cant rmb name) sectioning, mounting.
Light Microscope
Types:
Phase Contrast
Fluorescence
damn i have no more clue.
Cell Theory:
1. All organisms are made up of cells
2. All Cells come from preexisting cells
3. Cells are the basic unit of life.
Other things about Cells
I remember there are 9 things about this...
1. Cells use energy
2. Cells react to stimuli
3. Cells reproduce
4. Cells can regulate
5. Cells can make internal changes (hormones/enzymes)
6. Cells (shit, cant rmb le) have genes
7. Cells... zzzz
8.
9.
Chapter 2:
Membrane Structure and Function
Cell membrane there to separate internal and external environment
As for other membranes, like to ensure localisation of organelles peroxisomes, mitochondria
Fluid Mosaic Model: Fluid meant by the fact that phospholipids can move around all over the place laterally on the surface. Mosaic referring to the array of proteins on the fluid layer.
Thermo-regulation:
1. Kinks in lipid tail of phospholipids: prevent solidification by preventing the phospholipids from packing.
2. Cholesterol: At high temperatures, they restrain the movement of phospholipids
At low temperatures, they prevent solidification by prevention of
packing.
Molecules cross the layer via.
1. Passive transport (diffusion, facilitated diffusion{channel diffusion, carrier diffusion})
2. Active transport (against the concentration gradient) require hydrolyzing of ATP
Proteins
Peripheral and Integral (GG, math)
Peripheral--> on the layer, (signal transduction, support(connected to cytoskeleton)
Integral --> Ampiphatic, either all the way through or just one side. Used for transport mainly, as above. Other uses too like Cell to cell recognition, cell to cell adhesion, adhesion to ECM(same way as connection to cytoskeleton: for maintaining shape)
Other uses of Proteins, catalyst for reactions (enzymes), damn, i think im missing out on stuff too...
That's all eh?
Correction time!
