Beneath The Sweet Coating

The new set of cells that Dr. A passed to me were not growing fast enough and my experiments have to start next week. I have like 1 flask of cells when I need like 6 flasks of cells and a flask takes about a week to grow. The cells may have aged and lost their vitality or ability to produce enough growth factors. It's almost 2 weeks now and they are still not ready for sub-culturing. It's madness.

I just hope people will stop asking me about the trip to the theme park. I'm not in the mood to think about that. When I mentioned that I'm stressed. I am. I think I will give away those passes and stop worrying.

In this harsh world, friendship is not that important. Friendship is no longer simple, it has become a transaction - you use it to expect something in return. Someone who is rich can have a bunch of women, he who is rich can have many friends but how many true friends will he have?

How many of your friends are willing to stand by you at the darkest moment in life, celebrate the good times with you, chill out with you because you woke up on the wrong side of the bed, call you out of the blue to see if you are doing fine without expecting something in return.

I realised that friends I had while I was in the kindergarten years are really sincere. However, as I progressed on, friendship became more transactional.
