Yesterday, I participated in a symposium, it’s like the one I went previously, just that this time – I actually participated…
…As the usher. 
Not that usher that sings, I’m that usher that hands out programme sheets.
It turns out that being the usher isn’t that bad. I get 30 people to thank me for distributing them the programme sheet. It felt good to be thanked even though it’s just a simple act of handing them the programme sheet.
Well, I am bored while waiting. I walked around the 4th floor of Matrix building. I paced to the lift and stared at the digital display. And when I see a lift is preparing to go up to the 4th floor, I went back to the door and prepare. And chances are high that people would come to the symposium.
I was helping out my supervisor to usher a symposium that he organized. It’s a biomarkers discovery symposium and it’s more like an interactive session. The lipoprotein part is very informative – at least to me – and I jotted down quite a lot of things that may be relevant to my report.
I thought his talk is a little rough in the beginning, but it gets much better at the lipoprotein section. It’s well delivered in the end and I hope he can get interested parties to collaborate with him. His project is worth to be collaborated with in my opinion. It’s about verifying if phosphofructokinase is the rate limiting step in glycolysis. That may just be incorrect and may be changed in all biochemistry textbooks.
