第一篇中文網誌，不太習慣新注音，希望大家喜歡。早上還是趕著去上班，好累，老闆居然在跟同事聊週末發生的事！看來大家週一都不太認真喔。
在網上找到量電壓的裝備其實是會在十七分鐘內自己關掉，真快把我氣死了！要怎樣才能改呢？還是不能改？本來的用意是好的可以省電，但我不想要它自動關掉，而且一關掉數據就要好幾分鐘才會恢復正常，更不是我想要的。在這幾天我得想辦法看是要問老爸還是要寫信問廠商才行解決這技術問題。
把該送出去的信送出，覺得很期待，希望結果會好。不知道他會不會答應跟我進一步交朋友呢？
妹大概在家讀書吧！哈哈。我還在這邊混著寫網志，沒好好的寫十五號該交的論文計畫書。不想寫啦！還有很久啊！但同學都在打ㄟ，好認真喔。好可怕喔，為啥大家都這麼的努力呢，害我也好緊張喔。
遇到阿布跟快結婚的提科，她們兩人都很快樂喔。只是也都很為讀書而緊張啊。蠻慘的，為什麼小孩子都要這樣呢，給自己添著麼多的麻煩勒？
看阿奇的網頁，做的很好ㄟ，好厲害喔，好有藝術感。拍的照片還有連續動作的ㄟ。沒事時上網看看別人做的網頁心情也會很好喔。套句流行語：我推！
手打字打的好累！發現可以把鍵盤放低點！真好笑怎麼沒發現。梅來了，她坐在我旁邊。
I told X about wanting to go out in an e-mail. This afternoon he actually came into university. ^_^ But was too shy to say anything even after Mai left. Oh...am such a coward.
Right now just waiting for the good/bad news. Wish he will accept and pray to God. Now I pary to god, haha, don't even believe in God. Why pray to God? Don't even believe in fate, right?
Told cousin that dad's going to go back to Taiwan on Friday. Will have to drive mum and sister around again. Take responsibility on pumpkin growing and snail catching duty. Apart from that, just same old life as before. Perhaps tomorrow will be heart-broken/happy with boyfriend again. I sound more and more like Briget Jones by the minute. Am considering the possibility of becoming an ultimate singleton, but always wishing there's someone who is nice to come along and take care of everything so don't have to worry about life anymore! Or is it? More worrying? I don't know. Relationship is complicated, and sometimes you are happy, sometimes you are just sad! But relationship is healthy, and necessary. That's why most people are getting into relationships, falling in and out of love. I am sure it will work out for me somehow, but wish it will work out this time.
He is the right guy: I keep telling myself that, and am feeling quite foolish and embarrassed because have behaved like a love-struck teenager these days. *pout*
Why am I so silly sometimes?

Cloudy "Sun"day
Today is again bored. Mum and Fuzzyslowmo do not want to go out to shop, and I spent the entire breakfast trying to convince them, but failed.
I am still thinking about asking X out, and actually seek council from my near-marriage cousin. I hope her relationship turns out alright because the guy sounds nice, and he is waiting for his boss to give him a rise. I will ask him out tomorrow if he is in university, however, he may not be. It's still a waiting game.
Mum and dad went to vote for the Sunshine society here. The chairwoman has been elected and there's only one change in the society: the airplane ticket, destination Taiwan, is going to be auctioned out, but it's not going to be shouting, it's going to be on paper.
I read Quicksilver, a book about Werewolf, but it was skim reading. The weather is quite weird today, low pressure but no rainfall at all. Fuzzyslowmo (my sister) is reading Da Vinci's Code. It's a great book, I would recommend anyone who reads my blog to read this book if they have time.

Big fight with diamond_storm
Feeling really down, because should not have said things about diamond_storm. Am dreading of losing a friend: but egan, you've brought this on yourself! You should apologise, or shut your big trap!
Yesterday was boring. However, I didn't make an effort to make it more fulfilling at all. Don't know why am not feeling cheerful at all. So much to do...not really, just don't feel like doing any work, just want to type some blog or do some experiment, but due to mental blockage and equipment break-down, there will not be any experiments today.
Made up KCl solution to store ORP meter. Not interesting, just adding quite a lot of KCl into a small bottle of reverse osmosis water (RO water) then shake/mix.
Met Laura in F.1.14 (university room number, pc room), and tried to write up my 15/10/14 results without success. I am lazy. Just don't feel like doing anything because there's no motivation.
Robert is leaving, am feeling sad about that and don't want to talk to anyone in the function because it's... just meaningless I suppose. People are expandable in organisation, must make a note of that and work extremely hard, otherwise will be fired.
Don't know if dad's application to Robert's position is successful or not, hopefully he will get to the interview stage. Should warn him if he wants the job, don't talk about Forth too much. I don't know... he is even more arrogant and rude than me. I don't think he actually wants the job, so he keeps annoyting the HR people. Very devious guy, but you know, he is my dad so I should know better.
My supervisor is taking her annual leave today, long weekend! But she is not particularly happy (doesn't show). Is it because old people are like that? Or am I just not mature enough? Oh ok, just checking. People are like that, eh?
About diamond_storm thing: what I think is, if she's like that then I don't have to care so much. Why? For what? I don't really have to feel bad anymore, one part of me keeps feeling bad and can't sleep and the other part is thinking, so what... (the devious part) don't want this friend anymore... Man, I know that's evil, and bad, but really need to stop thinking, otherwise my head will explode.
Office is awfully quiet. Everyone seems to be working very hard, better get back to transcribing my messy lab notes into another lab note book.
Snobish co-workers! That's why I don't want to talk to them...I know, because they are not friendly to me. They don't have to be, they are like that. Grow up, Egan, otherwise you will never understand and keeps giving yourself grief.

Reading interesting blogs
After 10 minutes, I have found Braidwood's blog! Again! YA! It's in my IE address history. So silly. I was trying to search for it but blogspot does not have a proper search engine for other people's blog. Or I haven't found the proper way to search for other people's blog.
Today I have a mental breakthrough. I have finally written up 14 October 2004's ozone indigo reagent results. *sigh* I know that this experiment does not have a "Blank", which contains the highest amount of blue Indigo reagent and should have the highest reading. Hmm... at least I know what I did wrong. I told my boss about this and she seems to be happy about the transcribed notebook.
However, I haven't done much work since 10:30. Now it's 11:46 am, my boss and all my colleagues are in a meeting, and I am glad that I don't have to be in one. Nothing to present now, but here comes Emma my workmate.
Better go now, otherwise will be caught blogging during work time. Hahahaha

These 3 days
I will start from today. This morning I was in university trying to do experiment on my ozone generator machine again. Can you imagine that I had to take the ozone generator, the computer, my bag, and the redox meter back down from 2nd floor, C.2.03 lab? It took me two trips in the morning. So tired in the morning, especially after the Labour weekend.
Sweating now. Ah... it's not that bad. Stop complaining, but I can't help it.
However, my university supervisor told me off. He said if the ozone generator is not working, then stop wasting time here (!) Oh, alright. I then take the heavy thing down with me to work, which is at another site in Dexcel. This place is about 10 minutes drive from university if you do 100 km/hr.
I don't think my experimental set-up was very good because after today's grilling, heated discussion with my boss, I figure that it needs quite a lot of improvement to get to Masters level.
There are simply not enough information from my expereiment. The data needs to be better managed. For example, I should have listed what each data strip was, A or B, etc. I should have also listed redox readings, time in the day, and time after starting ozone generator and planned how many repeated reading I should have taken for each set of ozone sample. I should have been tidier on writing down my raw data so it can be refered to later. Jane, my supervisor suggested that in future experiment I should write all my raw data and scribble on a scribble notebook. And put the good data in another notebook. Great idea! Why haven't I thought about that?
The rain is pouring down in the afternoon, so I drive quickly to get from A to B, from Dexcel to Waikato University. I spent about 2 hours trying to track down a 1974 paper for shrinking bottle, also regarding using Indigo reagent to measure the amount of ozone present in my solution. Whew... so tired after running up and down the stairs and walking in the rain is not very good for me. I don't feel too well.
Haha... I am trying to organise a Halloween Party as well. However, people are reluctant to dress up. Why? Have some fun, people. Oh, alright. I have to concede to let them dress semi-formally. I am so soft to them.
It's Diamond_storm (Faz)'s 23rd birthday today. Happy Birthday to her! Hope she is happy. ^_^
Labour day yesterday, however, didn't feel very well because Faz's experiment did not work. Her gel did not form at all. I think she is stressed about that. We had to go to city to get nice coffee to console our broken heart. So tired! So hard to make gel. Why? Why can't her supervisor just let her use the easier type of casting gel method, huh? That just doesn't make any sense.
My younger sister had her first exam before summer, which was Physics. It went well, I suppose. She is studying for the next one, which is Biology. I wish they all go well, so she can pass them all and enjoy the summer. Of course, finding a job will be great, too.
I will send dad's CV to Dexcel tomorrow so he can find a job, too. He was telling me that he will "Bring home the Bread" in the future. Haha...it should have been "Bring home the Bacon", right?
I don't know. Met my cuz. She is so cool. I like her a lot. However, she is busy in meeting at the moment. Hope the tropical cyclone in Taiwan did not wreck too much damage. However, it's inevitable that it will cause some damage to building. Hopefully the weather will be calmer now.
How's people who are doing Ramadan now? Hope you guys are ok. Please don't fall down from starvation. Peace, eat something in the evening please.
