Scramble and Poster



Have u scrambled today?

I used to hate games that require any vocab. Haha! I'm a unwilling to learn, lazy person! But Jun Wen began playing the app "Scramble" with his company friends and kept losing. (LOL!) So we combined forces and won them occasionally. He then asked me to download the app so that we can compete and that I can compete with my friends too. And I was like, "No no, I can't download it. I'm afraid of losing." LOL.

It was until Colleague began playing the game and asked me to compete with him. Lol. And I downloaded it. Ooops! It's weird that u can reject your boyfriend better than your friend. I told CS the reason I didn't want to download it initially and he felt that I am so competitive! Lol. I didn't realise that! I am a competitive person in games. Competitive in such insignificant stuff.

Jun Wen won almost every round and mocked me whenever possible. Lol.

And I won Colleague in almost all rounds... Until he diligently read up and find out the meanings of those difficult words.. He is now a true competitor. Lol. Now I can't be complacent anymore! :(

Please add me in Scramble!


Oh I have got something to boast about. Remember the poster of my project I have been doing? My supervisor presented it to the European PDT Research Conference in Denmark. And we won the 3rd place! :D :D
The other colleague said I can put it in my CV under the Awards Section.


That morning I was sitting lazily at my work bench when my colleague came in and congratulated me.
Colleague: "Congrats!!"
Me: "Huh?"
Colleague: "Congrats!!"
Me: "HUH??" (In my mind I was thinking. How is it the case that I got married and I didn't know it before she does?")
Colleague: "U didn't know the news? Your poster won 3rd place in the conference!"

Wow right! I didn't know I can be so cool! LOL.

DJ has been encouraging me to go for further studies. Two weeks ago, she told me about a Masters degree in BioDesign that I could go for. It was collaboration between A*Star and EDB (Economic Development Board) and if I get in, I could study in Stamford University for 6 months and then in Singapore for another 6 months before I get my Masters. But I didn't apply.

I have considered for like a day and I decided not to sink deeper into something I have always have fate with but no interest in. Lol. Wish me luck for my future!
