No subjects

Hmph! Maybe i should bring a recorder with me next time. Why? Because recently when i meet people, they will sure ask about : "When i came back ?" "When will i go back again?" "Am i still studying or working?" "How long will i be working in UK?"....I have been bombarded with same kind of questions again and again...

OKla, I understand it is normal and okay for people to ask this kind of questions. Maybe i am just tired of answering same kind of questions and like to complain. hehe...sorry :P

I am so bored! I want to do something and go somewhere. :[

Opinion on skincare products.

Nowadays, when you flip pages of beauty/fashion magazine , I am sure you will see a lot of advertisements of skincare/cosmetic products.

Seeing the growing numbers of different beauty companies in the market, I think it's really hard for consumers to make a decision on which is good or which is suitable for them. So, consumers normally have to spend lots of money in trying and finding the most suitable product. View this from another angle, actually consumers are paying money to treat themselves as animals in the experiment.

Not only that, these advertisements usually come with pretty models and all kinds of claims about how brilliant are their products. This is how they attract new customers to try on their products. Because most asian girls want to have fair skin and every women want to beat the natural process of aging.

But, after a second thought, are all these considered as good thing or bad sign?

1)There is no evidence to prove what they have claimed about their products.
2)There is no specific regulatory body to regulate all these skin care products. This is because these products would not normally cause any deaths or adverse effects.

For example, there is one type of products which can make your skin shiny and smooth. This kind of products help to remove the first few layers of your skin. But, after you used this products, you cannot expose your face in the sun, or not you will more prone to sunburn than others.


All I wanted to say in this post is --Shouldn't we have some sort of strategies to regulate all these skin care products even though it will not cause adverse effects like medications? I think we should. :)

The day when i handed in 40 credits.

Surprisingly, with only 4 .5hours sleep, i managed to wake up early as i planned and i was actually 'very awake' (maybe is just over stress).

I did my final checks and modification on my report until 11 something. Guess what happened? I spent almost 4hours just to get my reports ready for binding. How sad~~~T_T

Quite an unlucky day actually. I realised that the two sets of report wasn't printed as it shown in the computer. All formatting works gone crazy after i clicked print. It's crazy that there was big spacing in between,figures and tables were cut off into different pages, not only that, even the number of pages in the table of contents all become 22222222222222222222222222222 or 55555555555555555555.............................................................................
speechless....i tried open and close N times, go internet to find solution, tried on different computer and the answer is 'these' don't help at all. I went to asked the librarian about what happened, she just told me it could be the page setup, and she doesn't seem to be helpful in this.

After endless trying, i went to find another librarian, he is even 'smart' that he said i have sent too many documents to printer and this leads to problem in printing. But, i know it wasn't, I told him, he don't believe me, but he go ahead and delete all the printers in that computer. At the end, the computer became not connected to any printers. OMG!!!!Don't act like you know when you have no clues on what's happening. But, I have to say thanks for you trying to help me. :)

I wasn't patient enough to wait for the IT man to come back from his lunch, so I decided to go to Cripps computer lab. As i walk out from library, I was still very stubborn and don't want to give up, so i tried the computers in another lab. And, guess what??I manage to solve it myself at the end!!!!By changing one of the figure references that making everything gone crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!including me !

I was worried that I might not have enough time to get everything done and hand in at same day as Student Union said they need 2 hours for binding. But, i managed to do everything as i wished la.

I walk and ran a lot today. My journey was like this : QMC-SU-home-SU-QMC within 1.5 hours.

Anyway, I have handed in the 40 credits report! I was so happy that the thing which have been torturing me for almost 2 months had over. It's over, so as my university life.

I am having gastric pain now, its probably because i drank coffee this morning and skipped lunch due to the problems i have encountered when printing out my report.

Supposed to be very tiring now, but i still can't really sleep. Whenever i am overstress, i can't feel the tireness.

I am off to cambridge tomorrow for house hunting. Finally can go somewhere else other than sitting in front of computer until backpain and neckache. Hopefully, there is something fruitful from this trip which costs me 37.50 pounds.
