I think I spoke too fast and too long today. I am refering to today's presentation for Advanced Coordination Chemistry; Dr. Vinh and Zhijie commented that I spoke for too long. Yuan-Ting recorded the presentation and told me that my portion took up a stunning 15mins. Zhijie talked to the second part and I think he talked for another 10-15mins or so. o_O No wonder Dr. Vinh commented that we exceeded the stipulated time by 3 times. Overall, I think I did an okay job, at least I felt that I am myself today.
Went down to MOE HQ to hand up my Master's application form. I'm relieved that everything is completed and right now, I just need to wait for their confimation. HK side has yet to notify me whether they will accept me but I believe the chance is high. For MOE's side, the chance of them releasing me for a Master's by research is 50-50. I tend to be optimistic but at times, things don't turn out the way we want it. Had lunch with Angeline after that and catch up with her; it's been a long time since I last had a good chat with her. I am glad to know that she has been accepted by GSK and she'll be flying off to UK for a year before working in Singapore.
My final presentation for this semester will be this Wed and I have yet to prepare for it! I'll be presenting on Click Chemistry and it's application in drug discovery. I need to double up and complete the slides fast. Hope everything will go on well.
My JC schoolmate Xuelian's tuition kid's friend needed tuition and she introduced it to me. The tuition will begin this Thursday and it has been a long time since I last taught Chemistry. In this case, it's "A" level Chemistry (The last time I taught was before I left for HK). Hope that she'll do well under my charge for her upcoming "A" level this Nov. In addition, may my passion inspire her to attain greater heights.
I'll be meeting up with Dr. Karen and Dr. Basheer this Friday evening to discuss about the Chemistry Olympiad training. I hope that this year's training will be more structured (if I have some say in this matter, I'll definitely bring it up) and hope that we'll perform better than last year.
Poor Emily dear is still in school doing her project at this moment. Hope that she'll return home soon to have a good night rest. I have not been a good bf as I am not able to accompany her. :(
