OSHA

july came and left in a blink of an eye. i was looking forward to July for such a long time but it came and went by with me not enjoying much of it. *sigh* ok.minus the shopping *whoops* *sigh* 

it is august already.marks my 8th month here in USM. yet i have no result to proof anything. i hope i do get something this coming week. august would be a super duper hactic month for me. earlier mornings, later evenings. all of which is to catch up on those few months of waiting and not doing anything. 

yesterday we had a talk on OSHA (occupational safety and health). it really creep-ed me out, like literally. i know i've expected all these dangerous things way back when i was filling up my MSDS forms for the chemicals i was using and i did detect a few chemicals of which are super dangerous - carcinogenic *gulp* but then yesterday when we were told of all sorts of things, well that really freaked me out. imagine having my school as the most to have accidents occuring, and you'll start to wonder if it is due to the environment or the students themselves. 

last year (latest case), a girl crushed three of her right fingers while using the cold press machine. her three fingers are now (currently) a few mm short. and her nails are distorted. hello. hands and fingers are super important to girls! nak sarung cincin (during engagement or akad nikah) must have pretty pretty fingers cause people will start snapping thousands of pictures of u! 

anyways. yes. dangerous and harmful. and you may never know what would happen to you, i mean besides the short term effects, those chemicals and materials that give you long term effect, you wouldn't know till you're in your 40s or something. but i can confidently say that during the year when we played with alumina and aluminium (4th year powder metallurgy lab), the effect is really obvious now. i tend to forget things, which i hardly did last time. so annoying. pfft!! 

i'm not liking this!

i'm thinking twice. of everything now. 

the effects. is it worth it?

oh well.

just gotta be extra extra careful ey?

time management

Time is PRECIOUS

Time is GOLD

Time is MONEY

TIME. if only we had 25 hours in one day, but then i'm pretty sure it still wouldn't be enough. nothing is ever going to be enough if we don't start doing things right and accordingly. true?

i need to start focusing on time because i am currently at a time constrain. i have classes in the morning from monday till thursday. i have to assist lab on tuesdays. mondays and tuesdays i can't be using the petrology lab because the undergraduates are using it. to prepare my sample, i have to use this lab, hence i have wednesday onwards. evenings only since morning i'll be tied up with classes. 

sample preparation takes me a while, minus the injuries i'll be facing while preparing my copper samples (grinding, polishing). coating would take me 2 hours, preparation for the coating would take an hour, max. solder making would take me 1 hour max for preheating, weighing, mixing. another 3 hours for the melting, and a few hours for cooling.

this is only the preparation of my samples. after having done all of the above, comes the characterizing, analyzing and testing. i've booked a slot for SEM, which is in mid september, by which i hope that i've done all the above and partial part of the testing. i plan to finish everything in this first part by september. hopefully. i need to have a publication accepted by december. 

they don't give you money for nothing.

oh. on top of that, i have assignments and quizzes and tests and exams.

so so tiring. seriously. i've never felt so exhausted in my life. and this hectic schedule will go on till end of the year.

hopefully it all goes well for me. i am after all, wonderful at multitasking. *right*
