Hola mi amigos!
Saturday, January 14, 2012Have you chosen DPCS and SP as your choice yet? Our code is S38. Good luck to all those who have! And to those who haven't, what are you waiting for?
It's week 2 and things are starting to get busy already. Just can't wait for the CNY holiday period!
All these different chemicals help determine the water hardness in our tap water! And if you don't know what water hardness means...
Just kidding! #googlit
For FFC (Fragrance and Flavour Chemistry), we decided to extract rosemary and lemons! I only wished there was a technology to let you smell them through the internet.
We look like we're in some cooking class instead of a lab!
The blended rosemary looks like [please fill in the blanks]... Eugh!
Our set-up!
Whilst waiting for the oils to be extracted, your hardworking seniors took turns to "study" for our upcoming smelling tests. And the secret to curing our nose fatigue... Coffee beans!
Do take note to wear proper PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) in the lab! Eg, LONG PANTS, covered shoes and goggles.
Also, last week, we watched Erin Brockovich for our ENSAHE module! You might be able to too if you have an awesome lecturer like HTA! :) He even bought for us snacks for the movie and we're invited to his house for CNY! We need to start a HTA Fan Club! Who wants to be president?
