Time machine

Time is now May, 2026. 

I started this blog in 2011. I was in Hong Kong, working and studying in the same University. Then I stopped blogging at around 2013, after I broke up with my then partner of 5 years. A lot had happened in the year followed. 2014, my grandma who raised me, pass away on 31st March. That was the day I have my Singaporean work visa approved, and I was on my way to the hospital to let her know.

Me, CIR stands for center of influenza research.

3 months after that, I was at Singapore Changi airport.

This was all I have to bring to Singapore. 880 was in the box.

6 months after landing Singapore, the first country scale protest in Hong Kong broke out. I went back for a personal break. My flight was greeted by my mother who told me to help sending my father from their care house to the hospital. That was my father's last admission in his life. He died the day after I returned to Singapore. 

I have spent 5 years in that country for Alzheimer's research.

Mouse hippocampus coronal sections. This was captured by Carl Zeiss LSM700, a laser confocal microscope, at 20x, stitching 6 images. Green is NeuN, a universal markers for nerons. Blues are DAPI, the nuclear stain dye. Red is Rab5, the endosomal markers that pillared my study in that country. 

The partial fulfillment of that degree. 

Then I was back to Hong Kong and lived for 9 months before I moved on, again.
