JOLIE SAYS:
since no one ever updates, just an "excerpt" from my blog to keep this alive before u guys stop coming here! :D

had NUS SF today!

days before, this aunty yuru got everything prepared! she specially went online to print the directions from streetdirectory.com and downloaded the full timetable of the courses! really aunti-fied i tell you. she would clutch on to this file, containing her detailed directions, oh-so-tightly and situp straight with all eagerness, counting down the number of stops til we alight. hah. saves me all the work. 

do not trust streetdirectory.com. it gives inaccurate information tt made us go in circles! at the first stop, a tp n mj guy dropped off. yuru told me with complete assurance, "haven't! this is onli the 6th stop!" we shot dem a condescending look n gazed on ahead confidently. at the next, the 2 vj girls dropped off. "perhaps they're going to another faculty! 6 more stops to go!" n we ended up leaving the campus. even the indicated busstop to alight was 2 stops off the faculty of science!



so anyways, we went in the LT averting stares from the ppl we met on the bus n hastily took our seats. today's lecture was on CSI: Forensic Science. SUPER DUPER INTERESTING. the speaker is some big shot in HSA (keeps emphasising on "my staff") and is laugh-til-face-red funny! its really the most first intriguing lecture ever!

first, we were exposed to the ironies of CSI. 
- how the people always work in total darkness with small torches.
- how they can solve 2 crimes in 1 hour.
- how when doing a test for blood, the whole room gets lit up a luminous green where in actual fact its onli a small glow. and it onli lasts for a few minutes unlike the hours in the show.
- how they can simply insert a hair into a machine n POOF a face appears on the screen.
- how they seem to have infinite knowledge on the 20+ topics involved in forensic science.

then, they let us in on the various methods of testing for DNA n semen. 

To test for semen on underwears: forensic scientists have to go through a series of tests to determine if its from a man. if it isn't, it could either be from a woman or a.................................get this, cauliflower. HAHAHAHA. almost died laughing.

Testing for saliva on stamps: they can't just assume its saliva based on the proteins they find. cos it could be from......faeces too. -guffaws- who would use faeces to stick their stamps and seal their envelopes man!

we were shown many pictures of interesting cases (including HuangNa's) and how they solved it. even the actual DNA samples for us to study! 

and i'm enlightened by the many horrifying discoveries today.
DO YOU KNOW! a study show that by simply washing ure clothes together with your bro/dad's underwear, the sperms and/or semen can be transferred to your clothes!! (YES! tts the shirt on your back now!) and it has been proven that traces of a sperm can be detected after as long as 30 years. how disgusting is that! imagine. 

friend I: EUWWW.. tts a sperm on you!
friend II: Oh! -casually flicks it off-
thankfully they're dead man! otherwise so many girls would have been mysteriously impregnated!

yuru n i have been sooo fascinated by it all we're obsessed! 
1)
-drinks yuru's orange juice- 
jolie: -pervy smile- now i have your dna... ^^
yuru: you'd better wish nothing's gonna happen to me or the police will come after you!
 
2)
during dinner, my hair dropped onto the table.
brother: euww! your hair! are u suffering from some disease?! (hes 13)
jolie: -in my know-it-all tone- do you know that you drop approximately 100 hair a day. and thats why if u commit a crime the police can catch you so easily because... -voice trails off-

HELP. 
and yuru's so inspired, she's considering taking up forensic science!

when i came home, and i told my mum i just attended a talk on forensic science, she shrieked!!
Mum: Go and bathe now!!!!!
Jolie: But i was in the LT!!!
Mum: SO! maybe the students brought the dead ppl's specimens in and you touch touch touch the table!
Jolie: They dun bring in body parts. ITS A LECTURE THEATRE!
Mum: STILL! theres the atmosphere! GO!

looking forward to the next lecture on monday! :D:D
