" One week of MANY weeks of WORK"
Today marks my 1st completed week of Work at ICES. Nothing so grand about that place though. Not even the job that im doing. Plain normal coz im still learning the scope of research the prof is doing and trying to get my brains together. But one thing for sure, i realised that all the previous attachments before me were girls and im the FIRST guy to do this.
Why? Coz i realised im doing all about cosmetics applications and trying to produce "chemicals" for the skins and face. I knew that when i chose this area of research coz i wanna try something different. VERY different. hahaaaa... Sorry to my fellow NUS girls who chose this but couldnt get it.
So........................ I have tried smelling and working with so many essential oils known famously to woman and "MeN-WHO-ARE-SO-VAIN-and-wears-so-many-facial-washes-in-1-day".
TeaTree Oils, Lavender, Eucalyptus, Grapefruit, Bergamot and so many more..
Take a look below! My days there are filled with glorious scents and all those anti-oxidants.
My lab table holds a thousand different combinations of chemicals and microemulsions. There are many more in the cupboard below. Can only pray that i dont lose my samples!
As per normal, u gonna have style! so i took my own pic with my hp when no one is there.
So there u go. Research work aint better than doing the normal lab during my semester days but the difference is that i got paid and the workload is so much lessssssssss... The professor uses the brain and im more of the brauns or hands to help him. So not much thinking but im looking forward to doing more and trying out my hands on more advanced equipments. May my time there flies so fast, i can only think of spending the hard earned money.
