Intoxi'Kath'ing Whispers

I went to Bali, Indonesia from 15th to 18th of October. For more on the trip, click here . Anyone planning to go there can definitely find out a lot from my friend Jenny's post. She's provided a lot of information, like the costs involved and of course, beautiful pictures. Both of us went for a holiday trip there along with three others. Besides promoting the Island as a holiday paradise, so they say, I'm here to also provide information for Catholics who intend to visit Bali and would like to see the churches there and maybe go for mass. But I only saw one church. Sorry. During our stay in Bali, we stayed at this place, Febri's Hotel and Spa . And believe it or not, haha, I was actually quite happy about it, that a Catholic church was just within walking distance from our hotel. What a great surprise! I don't know about other people, but whenever I am in a foreign place and I see a Catholic/Christian church, either when we pass by or not, I always feel very happy...

Yea... I've been really busy till my blog is stagnant and mosquitoes are laying eggs in it. Huh. Hahaha. Don't mind me. Had a bad day today. I'm doing Soxhlet extraction as part of my practical for final year project, which requires a heating mantle, and also condenser. Care has to be taken that our solvent in the flask does not dry up lest the thing explodes as it is super hot. This is exactly what happened in the lab today. My extractor exploded in front of my project mate. Thank God she wasn't hurt. Summary: Water was everywhere, oil was everywhere and broken glass pieces were there to greet me as well. The stench coming from our exploded stuff was so unbearable till the chemistry students had to move labs. Sorry!!! But I strongly feel that it is none of our fault as both our flasks still had solvent in it so we have no idea why it exploded. Sigh. In the end, we have to clean up lo...hahaha. Took mops and pails from the 'kakak' downstairs. She saw her p...

I'm feeling down today. Sad, tired, dull. Just feel like sitting down and stare into space. I lost two things in the space of just two days. Yesterday, I lost my umbrella as I placed it in the canteen when I went to have my lunch. And I totally forgot about it when I left!!! So now, I have no idea where it is. Whether the cleaning lady took it, the noodle soup seller aunty took it or even some desperate students who were stuck in the canteen and couldn't get back to the lab. "Ayo, raining la. How to get across?" Looks round. "Eh," Nudges friend, "there got umbrella leh. Looks like it's still functioning. No one's around. Should we take it?" "Hmm.. take only la.. Its' here for us. Maybe it's a free gift." "I'll keep it afterwards, can save for other rainy days after today." *Evil snickers as my umbrella is whisked away, never to be seen with me again.* *Wah!!! Cry...* Today, I lost my magnetic brac...
