Dissection?!

So the other day (Last thurs), we did dissection on lab mice in our Biology class. I was so excited! That was my first time actually dissecting something. (Ugh, no such opportunity during my Highschool years, sadly).

The mice were so adorable ;__; When I saw them scurrying around inside the cardboard boxes, I couldn't imagine ever doing anything to them (like killing them).

The instructor then soaked some cotton with chloroform and put the mice to sleep.

Goodbye, Little One :<

Argh this looks srsly brutal, he did a little mistake and accidentaly cut a vein so there was a lot of blood xD

Fixing up my scalpel; it's gonna be my turn.. :>

I honestly felt bad in the beginning. Like, poor little mice, they don't know what they're gonna go through. But hey, this is for studies, so I can't do anything about it.

Yeaahh. A bit of camwhoring before I get to my work lol!

Bla bla, I cut up the mouse and yeaaahhh~~ I did the thing! The instructor praised me for the 'no blood' (basically I dissected the mouse without spilling any- or much of its blood).

My mouse's heart was still beating the whole time! Quite fascinating.

Also, when I was dissecting, I was superbly paranoid that the mouse would wake up, so I placed some cotton with chloroform on its face xD lol!

The abdominal muscles on my mouse was twitching too, omg I was so scared something might happen xDD haha

Some photos of my friends with their own mice :p

Yeah, that's pretty much it. I had an enjoyable experience and we would definitely be dissecting more in the future. I look forward to it xD

Bro's Birthday dinner at El-Fresco

My family and I went to Intermark for a birthday dinner (my bro's birthday to be exact xD)

We ate at El-Fresco, a rather unique restaurant where you pick and buy your own food from the grocery mart (right beside it) and they'll cook them for you. Also, it's a No Frills, so they don't marinate the meat. Delicious~~

El-Fresco counter. I like the decorations haha

Some of the meat we bought! (These were for the dinner)

We sat next to this area, the clocks and deco really caught my eye. Gives me an impression of Homura from PMMM

Our food all nicely cooked :)

Lamb, wagyu beef, angus beef and salmon.

Side dishes and desserts!

My mommy with my bro, and with me~ :)

We had a short walk around Intermark afterwards. We derped around the mall taking loads of photos haha <3 it's a lovely place.

This hotel/mall is full of pretty decorations! And it looks really high class <3

I wonder if there'd be another outing for my birthday soon :p 12 March!!
