On beginnings and New Year..seminar cont.
The seminar went as expected…with good comments and suggestions from friends and not so from, ehem. Anyway, there are so many things that I am thankful for this day. First, I will be changing my cell line (hurray!!), second, I will be using a different protocol for protein isolation and for others this is bad news but for me, a real relief since the “old one” is nagai jikan de, the 2-D Quant is faster not to mention a relatively recent method. Third, I guess the imo worries will soon be over…God willing I will have an additional source.
This Chinese New Year suddenly has a meaning to me…something beyond being at the receiving end of tikoy (Chinese Rice Cake) from Chinese students. Tomorrow, I will organize my ‘new life’ by getting a new notebook, get rid of the dear old cells (gomen, three flasks full!) and revive new cells. This is New Year indeed….Out with the old and in with the new…
I pray that the results I will get will be the start of something worth writing, publication-wise!!!! Goodbye PAS…Hello Nature!!!!
