Kouda Entry_240: Battle Cometh

To end 2011; instead of a comic strip, I present to you, a teaser video. More impact, IMO. :D

Kouda Entry_239: BNP launching

Hey guys,

Sorry for the lack of updates. But as usual, I’ve been neck-deep in workload.

Haven’t had the time to make a comic strip, because I’ve been helping out with the Bionexus Partnership launching (and announcement of the Malay Genome) event here at the lab / UiTM Puncak Alam.

I was given the task to make the gift for the deputy prime minister, as well as work on/help out with the montage for the event itself.

Here’s the video montage if you’re interested to watch. My face pops up every now n then (if you can spot me la. Lol):-

PROMISE–BNP launching and Malay Genome announcement

It was my first time doing the voiceover for an official video. Had to control macho nih. Haha.

And here’s the artwork that I made exclusively as a gift for the Timbalan Perdana Menteri:-

Oh kantoi Prof. Zaki (reflection on the left) taking a photo of the artwork. He’s my co-super, so I’ll let it slide. Lol. My colleague, Rose is on the right. She helped out with the construction/maintenance of the Malaysian Genome Browser. #Bangga

Artist’s comments:-
The artwork basically shows a few DNA strands coming together to form a human being. It shows that we (living organisms) are all a construct of our own unique genetic information, which is composed of the four nucleotides; A, G, C, and T.

By sequencing and understanding our genomic information, we can better understand how we function, and also we will be able to produce more efficient medication.

Sequencing the Malay genome is just the beginning. There is still a lot of research to be done. The guys working on human genome projects will be freakin busy from now on. I’m studying bacterial genome, so lain citer la. Ekekeke~.

Kouda Entry_238: Kyo’s Week

I’ve been preoccupied with a lot of things lately. Most of which are related to the lab. And I’ve been getting daily headaches, which mess up my productivity.

This is pretty much how my weeks go:

So yeah, I’d be spending each day getting pummeled by my constant headaches.

However, my supervisor here at the lab was kind enough to get something to help me deal with my brain cramps. Maybe I’ll blog about it in more detail later. :3

Kouda Entry_237: Master of Science

INSTANT DEFEAT!!

It’s been a while since I’ve updated this blog!! D:

So, to bring you guys up to date, since I last posted an entry here, I’ve already been registered as a Master student.

These past few months, I’ve been EXTREMELY preoccupied with my studies. I’m doing my Master by research, and this means that I have to do A LOT MORE…more…more reading than before.

No worries though. I like it. Even though it drains the life out of me. And who knows, after this, I’ll go for my PhD. And then I’ll upgrade to Dr.Kyo. Ekekeke~.

Eceh angan2. Padahal baru start Master kot.

Kouda Entry_236: Kyo’s Sharingan

 

*Heavy Naruto reference. Tee hee.

To those non-Naruto fans, here’s a little reference for you to get some context:-

- Sharingan
- Mangekyo Sharingan

I’ve been having frequent headaches lately. My eyes feel like they’re about to implode into their sockets. Not fun, okeh. It’s probably because I haven’t been drinking much water lately.

Also, there’s the puasa thing. And I haven’t been sleeping much.

 

It’s so freakin hard to blog/Photoshop when my stomach keeps reminding me that it’s empty! Waaaghh!! *tumbuk perut*

Kouda Entry_235: Why I no liek soccer

And that’s why I don’t like soccer.

 

I suck at colors. So, sori la if the coloring is fail. Lol. Took me forever to finish this entry. Which is why I don’t do colors all too often. I epic malas. End of discussion.

Also, our ages were an estimate. I forgot how old I was exactly when I had that soccer ball jammed into my small intestines at mach speed.

Kouda Entry_234: Do I Know You?

 

I went to Muda Osman the other day to bind some of my reference journals together. And it turns out my neighbour was working part time there. Took me a while until I remember who he was.

Not my fault, okeh! Last time I saw him, he was still a kid. Now he’s all grown up and has longer hair and a goatee. Of kos la I x kenal. Lol.

He’s studying optometry now. O mai. Very de impressive.

(Eh jap, padahal I also had longer hair and a goatee when he saw me. Hahaha.)

Kouda Entry_231: Late!!

 

A few days ago..

I woke up after a night of reading journals, non-stop.

I forgot to set my alarm the night before. Well, technically I fell asleep while reading some of the research journals. So, didn’t set any alarms to wake me up the next day.

But, turned out that my mentor had an allergic reaction to some seafood, so she was on leave for the day.

I rushed for nothing. Lol.

Kouda Entry_229: Results

UiTM emailed my exam results. And here’s how I reacted to it:

 

My chemistry paper was 4 credit hours. The others were only 2, 3 credit hours. Since my chemistry result was so horrible, my GPA got dragged down, regardless of the A’s I have.

THAT SUCKS.

I’m glad that I didn’t fail the paper. But I am absolutely annoyed that my GPA suffered so much because of 1 paper. And, I missed my last chance to get on the Dean’s List…

Kouda Entry_228: Strangers

Here’s what it feels like when a faceless person on a social website asks to be friends:

If you have no profile picture, it’s really not likely that I’ll add you or reply your message. For all I know, you could be a 50-year old homicidal maniac looking for his next victim.

This is especially true if your info section is completely devoid of any…well…info. Stop being lazy and fill that sh*t up. It’s a social website, not an online photo album and/or chatroom.

As a matter of fact, I think I’ll go update mine right now.

This is kind of in reference to an old entry I did a while back:-

Kouda Entry_227: Need a Haircut

 

Sorry bout the lack of updates. You know me; Always distracted by something. Har har.

I seriously need a haircut. Wearing a cap all the time is getting to be a little bit tedious.

Also, I got an interview in a few days. It might not be a good idea to attend, looking like a hippy on steroids.

 

Although, it’d be okay if I end up looking like this:

LOL. As if.
