Never AIM!!!?

"A man who carries a cat by the tail learns something he can learn in no other way", Mark Twain said so. ( I googled and caught this :P okay that's not a great problem. What does he mean, that's what important) 

People say, " AIM high!". But, I say, "NEVER AIM". (????!!!)

None can teach me better than my experience. Though my dad, my mom, elders, friends suggest and guide me, what i learn from them, are all not any way better than my experience. 
My class teacher used to say when i was in school, "Learn for knowledge, not for marks, not for placements, not for getting a job, learn with greater interest; when you hear a song, how keen and enjoying it would be for you, enjoy reading the same way". 

:( But, who cared at that time to enjoy with the text books? I hated studying. I read and understood only 75% of the syllabus. As a result got a bit low score in HSE. 
Then, dad put me in B.Tech(bio tech). I didn't like the course at all. :( But, joined for my dad's words. In most cases, this is what happening. It's too bad, isn't it? 

But, luckily, it didn't go that bad in my case. First year, we didn't have any core papers. We had basic maths, physics, chemistry and some other department papers like engineering mechanics, EEE, etc., I was not that interested with these subjects. Got average score in first year of my course. 

But, the second year.... We entered our department. E.coli, Fungi, virus... oooo... A big gang of friends i got here. I gained much interest from the very first class. I started reading with fun, with interest, with involvement, with the thirst of knowing things. These microbe friends impressed me everyday! 

I didn't read with the intention of getting marks, getting a job or anything else. Just I started loving my subjects. I had fun in learning! Things turned upside down. oh.. I got top score!!!! ( Even i was unable to believe this in the beginning :P ) 

I realized , even when we have no aim, but, interest, we could come up, we could shine in our field of interest; the interest will guide us to the path of excellence! So, never aim at anything, never work for anything, just love whatever you do., that love and interest will take care of the rest.  Am I right?
"Love and interest over your course/subject could serve as a beacon, better than the torch of AIM!"

Just do work with interest, everything will go fine. The advantage of aimless living is "you never get disappointed". 

But, most people suggest to aim at something, to aim at greater things, but, what i feel is this, "Never AIM!". 

:P :P just blabbed my opinion / thought / experience / suggestion ( you take it in any way) 
Wish you a successful, aimless life! Have a good time.

    That's a different outlook and very much true. When I love to do something I go to any extend with it. But when I AIM: I aim at the stars then get distracted, distressed and end up firing in the opposite direction.

Lowry Assay Principle and procedure

Though there are several protein assays available, the most preferred one in many laboratories is "Lowry assay". It is effective in the concentration range of 0.01 mg/ml to 1 mg/ml. And, as an additional info, the paper published describing the procedure and principle of Lowry Assay is the most cited paper in the scientific history. (Feeling like, "Wow! I want to publish one to compete with Oliver.H. Lowry"???  :P) Why Lowry?   Though there are several other protein assays, mostly Lowry assay is used in many laboratories. The reasons for preferring Lowry are: sensitivity of the assay, highly reproducible, cost effective, easy to perform. Biuret assay is generally used for higher protein concentrations like tissue samples but, Lowry for less concentrated samples and hence used in most of the molecular biology laboratories where there will be need for assaying comparatively less concentrated protein samples (in most cases where we attempt to produce enzymes).

Sea Butterfly!

Neih hou!  Don't roll you eyes wondering what it is! "Neih hou" is how you say "hello" in Cantonese. Guess what, I am in Hong Kong and therefore the language Cantonese. I came to Hong Kong this summer as an intern before officially joining as a PhD Student. This is my second experience abroad, far away from home, new language, new culture, I expected me to have a "really" bad cultural shock, but, actually I experienced only 50% of what I expected. For a girl who have used the marina beach only for eating "sundal", bikini in beach was a shock (FEEL FREE TO JUDGE ME!). The first time, I went to the big wave beach here, I was the only one who was totally covered, when everyone was enjoying their Beer, I was slowly sipping my lemon juice (THE ODD ONE OUT!). I realized how beautifully different the world outside is! There is no single standard for right or wrong, it varies in different countries, in different regions around the world. And it

The Butterfly flew for the first time!

Hi dear sweet lovely reader, Didn't meet you for a long time... Just after complaining about the stipend problem in the last post, I actually wanted to write a lot here, but, couldn't find time (Such a lazy girl, I am!). As you might be knowing, the author (me) is the butterfly here :P And, I flew for the first time!! YEAH! I FLEW! I flew like a butterfly! It was an awesome experience flying for the very first time! (ow, no! I dint put a trans-gene in my body and fly after getting  a pair of wings, but with a passport and VISA). I'm this girl, full of dreams wishing to do "this", "that" and "all kind of stuffs that one can do". And, one among those dreams was to fly one day! TO FLY FREE!(I mean, not free of cost :P, but liberation) I always wanted to fly in those big, big airplanes, but, I always have avoided that mode of transport. Reason? Obviously, it would burn a big hole in my dad's pocket (actually he can afford if I wan
