GOODBYE.

SEE YOUU SOON!

Moving on

Its time to move on.
Thank you for the happy memories.

=)

HELLO!!!

INKHEART TODAYY! Not bad la. Quite draggy, and not as funny as bedtime stories. Changeling is the nicest! Watched with Karen, Pei Xian and Eunice! *Loves! Karen bought couple seats, and deprived 2 couples of couple seats -.- No difference lor. She go in and pull down the arm rest -.-

Gymed today and I feel all weak and lousy now. Dunno why. heh

Last outing with Grace. Watched Changeling! Quite a nice show, but SUPER LONG. Walked ALOT after the movie. Cine to Far East, then back to Somerset. Had dinner with Yixin, Lin Jie and Andrew at Subway!

The wart!

A plantar wart (also verruca plantaris or commonly known as verruca) is a wart caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) occurring on the sole or toes of the foot.

There is currently no cure or treatment for HPV infection. (ZOMG)

It is estimated that 7-10% of the US population is infected. (Wow. Thats like 2.1 million to 3 million people. BROTHERS!) Infection typically occurs on moist walking surfaces such as showers, swimming pools, or shoes. (DAMN. No more swimming) The virus can survive many months without a host, making it highly contagious.

Because plantar warts are spread by contact with moist walking surfaces, they can be prevented by not walking barefoot in public areas such as showers or communal changing rooms, not sharing shoes and socks, and avoiding direct contact with warts on other parts of the body or on other people. (So uhhhh... Don't touch my foot, kaes. Right foot.) Humans build immunity with age, so infection is less common among adults than children. (Seeee uncle. I'm still young. Children.)

Once a person is infected, there is no evidence that any treatment eliminates HPV infection or decreases infectivity, and warts may recur after treatment because of activation of latent virus present in healthy skin adjacent to the lesion. There is currently no vaccine for these types of the virus. However, treatments are sometimes effective at addressing symptoms and causing remission (inactivity) of the virus.

Hahaha. Okay la. I got scared when I read it at first cause I thought this thing was like... no sweat man! So its more serious than I thought eh? Maybe I should tell the ns doctor and get him to de-pes me. hahaha!

Warning! The following is dense, even for bio students

The HPV lifecycle strictly follows the differentiation program of the host keratinocyte. It is thought that the HPV virion infects epithelial tissues through micro-abrasions, whereby the virion associates with putative receptors such as alpha integrins and laminins, leading to entry of the virions into basal epithelial cells through clathrin-mediated endocytosis and/or caveolin-mediated endocytosis depending on the type of HPV. At this point, the viral genome is transported to the nucleus by unknown mechanisms and establishes itself at a copy number between 10-200 viral genomes per cell. A sophisticated transcriptional cascade then occurs as the host keratinocyte begins to divide and become increasingly differentiated in the upper layers of the epithelium. The viral oncogenes, E6 and E7, are thought to modify the cell cycle so as to retain the differentiating host keratinocyte in a state that is amiable to the amplification of viral genome replication and consequent late gene expression. E6 in association with host E6 AP (associated protein), which has ubiquitin ligase activity act to ubiquitinate p53 leading to its proteosomal degradation. E7 (inoncogenic HPV's) acts as the primary transforming protein. E7 competes for pRb binding, freeing the transcription factor E2F to transactivate its targets, thus pushing the cell cycle forwards. All HPV can induce transient proliferation, but only 16 and 18 can immortalise cell intes (in vitro). It has also been shown that HPV 16 and 18 cannot immortalise primary rat cells alone, there needs to be activation of the ras oncogene. In the upper layers of the host epithelium, the late genes L1 and L2 are transcribed/translated and serve as structural proteins which encapsidate (Encapsidation is the process of incorporating a nucleic acid sequence (e.g., a vector, or a viral genome) into a viral particle) the amplified viral genomes. Virions can then be sloughed off in the dead squames of the host epithelium and the viral lifecycle continues.

@.@

Someone get me a panadol. Fast.

HELLO!! I'm back with a few rly retarded photos

Fake Sunflowers in the hotel's restaurant

SEEE! I ain't that short =D

A-Famosa. Portugese Fort. These are some gravestones dating back to perhaps the 15th or 16th century. This place is SUPER COOL for a history fanatic like me

One of the hundreds of musuems in Melaka. Notice the date! Remember it well!

Malaysia Flyer. 40m shorter than Singapore's. They moved this Ferris wheel all da way from KL to Melaka.

Eating spree over there! Ate this chicken rice ball. niceee! Summore its so cheap. One person convert to Sing dollars only 88 cents. CHEAP OR WHAT. 1 whole chicken summore for 9 people.

I'm superworried for you la
That place is so dangerous

HELLO! I'M TOTALLY POOPED NOW CAUSED I GYMED, RAN AND TENNIS(ED) WITH NOVYN FROM 3 TO 9.

Okay la. The tennis was more of like picking up balls.

Totally wasted mann. I feel so tired >.<

Good luck Pei Xian!!

Sunghun...

Hello! Woke up super duper early today cause I wanna have breakfast with my parents. I srsly hate the fact that I normally don't get to eat with them on weekends. Moreover, I'm gg toa rmy soon so I must try to treasure such moments ^.^

After that went for a haircut and then out to meet uncle at dhoby. Basket. I spent 71 cents to walk from on side of dhoby to the other. Ate at astons! The grilled fish with herb was not as nice as teh hickory bbq chicken, and stupid uncle poured chilli over my half eaten mashed potatoes. Left them there lo. Bo bian. So disgusting la. Bought tickets for 3.30 Bedtime Stories at the Cathay, but then Huiyi was late. Bedtime stories... okay la. Its not that nice a show. Some funny parts. Its like the less interesting version of Bolt. Walked to esplanade after the movie, took pictures!

Left uncle at Raffles and headed to the airport with Huiyi to send Sung off! Missed Tanah Merah and we sat to Simei before realising that we forgot to get off at Tanah Merah. My goodness. He's going back to Korea for don't know how many donkey months/years. Probably coming back next yr. Hais. What to do huh. Trained back with Huiyi. =)

ALL THE BEST SUNG!

The Bank Robber

In Taiwan, a man held a woman hostage in a bank using a toy gun and demanded money from the bank tellers. Following normal procedure, the bank teller handed over a stack of money worth 100,000 dollars. The bank robber made away with the money, or so he thought.

The notes at the front and the back of the stack was real (correction. saw the news again and apparently the top and bottom notes are fake. they just look real), but there was nothing but blank slips of paper in between. Moreover, such notes are often traceable in the event of bank robberies.

hahahaha.

The post with (or without) Jasmine's widom teeth

HELLO!

KC accompanied me to the doctors today. He doesnt get up so early usually so kudos to him! =) The doctor gave me some antibiotics to eat. Tastes disgusting as usual. Went to eat KFC breakfast. Totally cmi man. The hashbrown was so bad that it cannot be described. The honey biscuit, chicken and egg were okay, but the chicken and egg so small! How to feed us! Summore is costs 6 bucks. zzz
went to shop for Janis's present, then went to Kc's house to rot. Played GTA! Left after lunch, and have been home ever since.

Jasmine got all 4 of her wisdom teeth plucked out today. She was still bleeding the last time I smsed her. Can only drink porridge and cant cew anything. haha. Poor thing. Get well soon!

Team Yishun!

Jasmine ^.^

Jie Yee

hello! An ass of a day man. (sorry but I cant help but bitch today)

Went to Lavender to get extra Army stuff. The store was okay, lots of stuff, well organised etc. But one of the sales ppl srsly blur like.. walao. I ask for one thing, she will repeat in my face with the blur look, then go and ask the shop keeper what it is I'm looking for. Didnt get to eat my curry chicken noodles today again. So headed over to Bugis, saw some nice shorts but didnt buy. Next time then buy, then headed home =)

So at night, got the news that I'M NOT GOING TO JAPAN. Blardy tour agency said tt not enough ppl so cancelled. Okay nvm. Then i tried to install a game kc lent me. Cnt install.
