Interesting blog site

Interesting blog site for Biology students.

D-day for U6

Can't wait for tomorrow to come? For the brave one, step-la in front of the bullets and see whether u can survive or not.
For the chickens who had already died, well, who cares right?
It's between you and me, lol

Enjoy the exam.. and .... if you can't answer, then what to do ... ha .... just say I love you.....

Best XaMach Pose

It is tough life for XaMachs especially the junior XaMachs of Form 3.
After only 5 days of battle of the brain, some starts to get burnout and therefore decided to take a nap ... in the hour????? What happened to the "kiasu" syndrome? Is this the start of an evolution?

Vote the best pose for sleeping during exam.
1 - total flat out style
2 - sleep but still holding on to the pencil style
3 - turtle style (see only the head not the face)
4 - sleep thinking style

Xam Season

The neighbours of JitSin for once can have some not so noisy day. Even the ghosts are happy for a while as all the XaMachs are busy clanking their brains. Don't you feel hot today? Brain energy converted to heat energy ... What law hoh?

Chi-squared

Note:
The calculated chi-square value (0.xxxx)is found to be (lower/higher)than the value (0.xxxx) given in the chi-square table (p = 0.05, df = x). Therefore, the deviation is not significant and the result fits the xx:xx:xx ratio.

Cornfield

Remember, Mendel is a patient and trustful person. So, enjoy counting the corn (at least you have the luxury of sitting in the cosy (yet to be air-cond) lab. Make sure you accept your null hypothesis otherwise, you are in trouble.....

Petroleum Pentruplet

One, two, three... light... Happy birthday to sir.....

Dancing Queen in Jit Sin????

Shin Ying's sexy brother in action ... all Jitsin gone bonkers... ha ha ha!

Egg Parachute

How to save an egg from its peril when dropping it with a parachute from the 4th floor of a building?
Use a parachute-la... as if I do not know.
How big is the parachute?
Do not know!... ExaMachs..... see here and here too

LPK or LPN

Can you identify the Lau Pang Kong or the Lau Pang Neoah?

The Bug Burners

See how enthusiastic are the two burners.

Flower, Flower Everywhere

Flame of the Forest and Dendrobium flowers today beautified the Biology lab after the gruelsome dissection/murder of the rats in the past few weeks.
Flower girls busy picking up the flowers and some trying to emulate Ronaldo the Softy (qoute from Paris Hilton) in flower wearing fashion.

Yeah, Yeah we got fan

Finally, we got 2 extra fans in the Biology lab even though global warming had increased
I am still waiting for an air-con to be installed. After so many ex-students had graduated with high pay, none can afford to donate one. OMG

Another ex-student

Teng Sin Yee (xstu 05) paid me a visit in school today. Good to see you, Sin Yee.

Starfish and what a story

Given in the school assembly by the great Mr Goay, the story of a small boy and thousands of starfish on the beach touches many lives (but does it touches any minds?)
What is a starfish?
Why do the starfishes get washed up on the beach?
Will the starfish live when it is thrown back into the sea?
Is it wise to pick up a starfish with a bare hand?
Creative tale require creative mind to ponder and synthesize these remarkable questions.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_star
http://www.allsands.com/science/animals/starfishinforma_vaa_gn.htm (Today, starfish live close to the sea around the world and typically stay in groups of forty or more. Most starfish live in the deepest parts of the sea and are often found hiding under rocks or in tide pools. Starfish are sometimes carried into shore during high tide. These are the starfish you may commonly see on the sand or close to shore. Because starfish can only survive two hours out of water, it's recommended that you leave starfish where you find them)

Active or not, huh!

In this hazy morning, the whole of Jit Sin family headed by the the principal decided to have an aerobic exercise (more of a dance to me) in conjunction with the Fitness Week!



Will this 40-minutes exercise increases the stamina of the teachers and students?I had more exercise in the lecture hall and the classroom than this.
There are more yawning students in the class (well, it is as expected since XamMachines are machines.. lo)

Swine Flu or Influenza A (H1N1)

Interesting article from the Newsweek magazine May11/18 2009

Metal speakers

Which one is not a metal head?

Answer: The one that looks like a wood head ..lo

Exam Machines Doing Practical Work

Can pick any mistakes make by ExMachs in this lab?
























Do they ever change? Compare to last years eXaMachs click this link.

Flame of the Forest

For the next practical, look out for the Flame of the Forest tree. Some of them might been blooming with flowers.

The 12 Metals

Potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, aluminium, zinc, ferum, stanum, plumbum, cuprum, argentum and aurum.......
Remember them oh my F3 students!
Can you count how many metals in the table on the right?

Rat Dissection - Final Destiny

Today marks the final day of the rat killing activity by the biology students.
Life had been taken by all of you.
May the rat blessed you with success in your STPM.
Hopefully they did not died in vain so that you may succeed.
Should any of you fail, you may have to answer to your peril in the Rat Kingdom in later years.....hee hee hee! I no longer care, yes!

Happy Teacher's Day

Thank you to all students of UB1 and UB2 2009 for the largest card ever received so far.

To my overseas students, Shin Ying, Yi Hua, Suo Yee aka Pet Pet and Jing Tsong, lovely cake that will fulfill my ego .... Thank you.

Rat Dissection D-day

U6B1 students undergoing the gruesome exercise of dissecting the rats. The reason they are not in uniform is that today is suppose to be JS Teacher's Day Celebration. They had to torture me and the rats during this auspicious day... but never mind, we shall let them pay for it..... ha ha ha Newton 2nd law of motion.

Congratulations

My sincere congratulations to all the going-to-be undergraduates for getting your first choice and if not get into the uni. Please comment to let me know what you get.

Practical Drawing for Rat Dissection

For the rat dissection drawing, here are the following guidelines

1. Experiment 8 (Practical No. 12) (3 drawings) - Fig 7 (choose the right one ) page 13; Fig. 9 page 15; and Fig. 12 page 18)
   
2. Experiment 9 (Practical No. 15) (only one drawing) - fig 38 page 37
   
3. Experiment 11 (Practical No. 17) (3 drawings) - Fig. 30 page 30 (do not draw the forceps); Fig. 28 page 29; and fig 40 page 37 (only the heart)

Experiment 8 will be carry out on the 17th June so the drawings will have to be done before that.
Happy drawing...
