Biotech Kiasu Shirt Design update 2

Proposed by Jynn.

Friday, January 30, 2009

Biotech Kiasu Shirt Design update 1

(31 Jan updated)
Hi all, the first 3 designs are out. All the designs can be in collared shirt or printed tee form, depends on you guys and gals.


The first design is 'You name it we clone it' theme.
Looks something like this. Still in basic draft, colour and arrangement are still needed.


The second will be the 'kiasu chromosome'. Theme proposed by MZ - And the Kiasu spirit lives on- inspired by the electrophoresis experiment. One day our beloved God MZ accidentally electrophorised his DNA during Principle of biotech's lab session and the result turned out to be as below. It has been kept as top secret until recently his laptop was hacked.


Of course we cannot make the shirt as colourful as above, but if the design is accepted we can grayscale the graphic and it'll look nice too, as if being watched under UV light.

This is my another design, called 'the biotechs'. Personally I like this design as it is cool and sleek, though it looks like a tee that you would commonly find at Sg wang.

Do comment.









red color Tuesday!!!

semperna Chinese Baru Year~
shall kita wear baju red red on hari the Tuesday?

or should I just say
semua people!!! WEAR MERAH SHIRT!!!


*ok, I am officially gilar*

those who agree, pls wear red~ thanks

p/s: hope this post won get deleted by the admin @___@

Biotech May07 Logo


This is a small update on our kiasu shirt. FYI we normally need logo when creating something that symbolises our community. As a result I'd founded a logo for the biotech0507 society.

The design is still in its larva stage. Perhaps the coloured version will be submitted again when the final draft is confirmed. Suggestion for the colouring is utmost welcome.

Please submit feedback and if anyone need the *ppt format to edit it just ask from me(Liang少). Thanks.

Your Class on your Shirt

First of all, I would like to thank to all those who have participated in the recent polling. The result is obvious: use this blog as a salad bowl - all in one.

Now, we have a new issue - for FES Setapak future biotechnologists - which is much more interesting. Do you want all the memories in the class etched on a shirt where you can wear it to show off when you go for outing etc? Here is your chance to give your piece of thought to design our class tee.

The main areas to cover:
1. What kind of textile? Cotton? Nylon? Lace (as suggested by GRQ)? Semitransparent?

2. What is background colour for the shirt? Black? Blue? Pink?

3. Collared or collarless?

4. What deco/images/designs/words etc you want to put on it?

5. etc. etc.

If possible, draw your design - electronically or hand-drawn - and send in for scrutiny. You guys can either submit it to me aka laoban, ren quan aka appa, siew ting aka lala, or ah liang aka lengzhai. Basically, let your imaginations run wild - but not so wild until you don't even dare to wear the shirt on street la.

If you don't want to participate that dedicatedly - due to lack of artistic nature, shyness etc - you are always welcome to provide suggestions for the 4 questions above or add in your extra opinions in the comments section.

Please participate and the deadline is the week after CNY - between the Monday and Friday of Week 4.

老乡,我又上来啦

各位老乡我又来啦
在这里我想澄清一下
我完全没有想把kiasu spirit关掉的意思
之前说要开一个bbs是觉得说kiasu spirit是个比较轻松搞笑的地方
然后主要还是让大家po一点生活点滴
所以假如要进行和学弟妹们的text book交易是不是另外开设一个平台会更好
然后加上大家对kiasu spirit的支持程度也似乎有点不是很热情
通常po blog或reply的都是来来去去几只小猫
不过本大人把经营权pass给minzhin大神之后我又似乎觉得kiasu spirit"活"了过来
所以应该就是所谓经营不善的状况吧
现在就像请了一个很厉害很厉害的CEO那样
haha
so我还是想在这里呼吁一下我亲爱的老乡们多多支持我们的kiasu spirit因为里面有很多我们的回忆要多多po blog哦~~本大人在遥远的他乡会常常上来和大家打声招呼的

ps:kampar的ict room视野好好哦..我是对着一片美丽的湖景来on9的...
ahahaha

2 Hearts Beating In Sync, or Separately?

I wanted to do a poll on this but I prefer people to leave comments since we all can hear out our opinions. Here is the thing, do you all want:

1) FES blog and Kampar blog to run separately, or
2) We join forces and fight for the greater good?

My point of view is:
This blog is created to bring all of us together. We share interesting things in our lives; we laugh, weep and surprise ourselves by reading the same page everyone else in this course is reading - this BLOG. We might see each other in class in every other day but, tell me, do you know every interesting thing that occur in the lives of the friends around you? You wouldn't have know it but to miss a few anecdotes your friends want or dying to share with you while you are not beside them. All of these sharing stuff are great and meaningful, especially when we are going to bid adieu in about a year. But, it comes at only one and only ONE condition: we transcend the limitations set up by the year we are in, the session we are in, and the place we are in. In other words: we share as members, or rather "species" of the huge BT family of Utar regardless of which campus or which year. 

Of course, we also want to know what's up with the brethren and sisters in Kampar. I don't feel right when this blog is going to be infested with molds and mosses when we graduated. I hope it would carry this healthy "kiasu" spirit down to our "successors" down the Utar BT lineage, the subspecies Homo sapiens kiasuensis

ONE HEART beating: it's life but too weak;
TWO HEARTS beating: it's life, strong but unstable and chaotic;
TWO HEARTS beating TOGETHER: it's life, strong and lasts twice as long.

This is my point of view. What's yours?

Hope you guys respond fervently in the comments section. No language constraint but English is favoured since we all speak it and understand it. =)

request request

Dear Seniors,

My Microb lecturer Ms Teo KC asked me to get microb reports from anyone of you, because she wants to compare the syllabus and make my campus' lab not too much difference with you guys'. Thus, can anyone of you help out?

She is a new lecturer in UTAR so I really hope your reports can help her.

Thank you.

By,
Lim Kah Yee =)

炸弹奏鸣三部曲 The Three Movements of Bombardia Sonata

作曲:拉曼生物科技系
Composed by Utar Biotechnology Course

一部曲 First Movement
3rd week NO LAB
but...
almost every week got replacement

二部曲 Second Movement
1st week 破产"money no enough"
but...
need to pay RM10

三部曲 Third Movement
1st week 聚首
but...
少了几个人头

大家是好朋友的话,一起在comment栏里为木子姐姐和jeff饯行。来,我第一个饯

Here are a few important messages:

1. PLEASE COME on next Monday. I will be giving out notes, collecting class funds, distributing schedules for lab, tests and replacements. I will also give out lab manual. Lecturers want us to read up the manuals before going for lab. If you guys didn't come and somehow didn't get the lab manual, the notes or other stuff, I cannot help you then. I try to do my best to satisfy everyone but if you guys don't cooperate, then what I do is futile. 

We all are on the same boat, if we want to move forward, we row together, don't sit at one corner and make holes on the boats. Or else we will be wondering why we are rowing the boat at the bottom of the ocean.

2. Check your time table at the intranet and see Monday. Surprise right? NO CLASS. However, that's an error. I have confirmed with the office. There is still a lecture starting on the 11. Check the time table I sent you all and ask you guys to circulate during the mid-December. That' the correct one. 

Anyway, see you guys on Monday.And remember your saman/summon - RM 10.

Regards,
Your Course Rep - making your life less harder than the hardest.

PS. Please vote in the polls. Thanks.

给大家的一封信

minzhin的礼物还不够爆炸性
就让本大人来加多两钱重吧~~

大家好,快开学了本来应该是很开心地跟大家说:"开学见~"的
可是在这里我必须和大家道个别
大家在开学后没办法在学校看到我了
至于原因嘛我等你们来问我
等你来电哦~~~muaks~~

然后,总结和大家一起度过说长不长说短很不短的2年多
我在你们身上得到了很多很多
其中最多的就是和大家一起欢笑的回忆
你们每个人都让我无聊的大学生涯变得丰富了起来

以为会去kampar念书时对"脚车党"的美好幻想和计划
愚人节的无聊作弄人游戏
生日时的惊喜
开学无聊到去DSA玩百万富翁
skip class时交待别人帮忙签名的sms
帮别人签attendence前的认真"练习"
快考试的时候到minzhin家去"拜神"
拜完神后顺便进行连续剧或anime交流会...
每每想起都会让我嘴角往上扬
念起我们的曾经,想到即将的分离,心情也许是沉重的
不过我依然要借此机会向所有同鞋说声谢谢和对不起
以前有冒犯的地方,很抱歉..
我是无心的
也许我曾经给你们带来欢笑和快乐
那我希望大家能一直记得曾经给大家带来过欢笑的我
或许我们同学的缘分尽于此
但我们朋友的情谊不会就此结束
我们是曾经的同学,也会是一辈子的朋友

p/s:我还会定时上来upload,所以...keep in touch 吧~~
另外,本大人决定把这个blog的管理权限pass给minzhin大神和阿量量哥哥了~~
请大家拍手欢迎两位大人接管kiasu spirit吧~~~

再ps一下,我想set up一个很简单的biotech的forum...
所以想知道大家的feedback是怎样...
酱紫的话大家想交流下tips或是想买卖课本都比较容易

A Present for You Guys

This is  a short but IMPORTANT announcement from your course rep:

There are good news and bad news:

GOOD NEWS:

For those who are concerned with the classes in Week 3 - the Chinese New Year week, there is NO LAB for any of the 3 core subjects. I got this info after bugging the lecturers involved. As for lectures, it is confirmed that NO LECTURES will be going on in that week itself for GENETICS and MB. As for ATC/PTC, it is not confirmed as she said she will inform us when class starts.

BAD NEWS:

As expected, extra holidays come with replacements - this is inevitable. For genetics, almost every week's Saturday is used for replacements - as well as tests - while for other subjects, it is yet to be confirmed. For MB, Dr Tee said there will not be replacements but tests will be conducted to compensate for the lost hours instead.

Leave a message if you have any queries.

You think the bad news ends here? Think again as people say: bad things come in pairs but never the good ones - 祸不单行,福不双至.
Hence:

When lessons starts, please be sure to fill your wallet and purse with 
RM 10 
for class fund. I have already got the notes for the 3 core subs. Thanks. Do not forget or else you get the notes on your own.

Regards,
Your Course Rep - making your life less harder than the hardest.
