Hmph.

Ok. Tianyi and Elaine have discovered my blog. And only because I told them. Experiment failed? Maybe I should start a new blog and wait for someone to REALLY find it. Nah. Too lazy. And it doesn't really matter.

The band has elected their new comm. I was just confirming with her sister whether the exco names written on the board was permanent. Then I asked her what the difference was between a band major and a drum major. Sheesh. By the look on her face, it was as though I was going to fail her and give her an F9 if she couldn't answer. 人家只想知道 "Band major" 和"Drum major" 有什么不同罢了。。。 I don't bite! Gee.

Speaking of biting, someone might not be too happy tomorrow. *Ahem.*

Bio. Bio. Bio.

Buccal cavity-oesophagus-stomach-duodenum-ileum-colon-rectum-anus.

Buccal cavity- Chemical digestion by salivary amylase, physical digestion by teeth. Food is coated by saliva and mucus, helping it to go down the oesophagus easily. Tongue is used in gathering food together in mouth.

Oesophagus- Peristalsis. Wavelike contractions that push the food down using a set of antagonistic muscles. When circular muscles contract, longitudal muscles dilate. When longitudal muscles contract, circular muscles relax. Creates lumen for food to gradually move down.

Stomach- Protease pepsinogen is in inactive form. When HCl acid is released, it is changed to active form pepsin. Breaks down proteins into polypeptides. Muscular action of the stomach churns solid food into chyme to facilitate digestion and absorption later. Pyloric Splincher- prevents solid food from entering the duodenum, releases chyme into duodenum slowly.

Haven't really gotten to the small intestine yet.

Nessum dorma.

Studied about oratorio today in music lesson. Handel's Messiah is really grand. Especially the chorus that begins with "For unto us a Child is born". The choir really sounds jubilant, like they want to proclaim it to the world. ^_^ And of course the tenor aria "Evr'y valley". ^_^ Was fun to hear the tenor start singing like a soprano, in terms of rhythm and running notes. Lala. And those two mad people were acting gay again. Gross. Plus they were right in front of me.

Oh well. Sigh.

My mom says if I don't get enough sleep I'll fall sick. Actually that's not a bad idea, if you disregard medical fees etc. It'd be nice to sleep all day at home. But then again it sucks being sick.

I want a break. A real one. I haven't had one since Christmas 2004.
