I never thought one day I would be doing an ultrasound on a sheep. Mom, I finally have my first ULTRASOUND PICTURE (hope my mom dont think it is my child when she saw the picture😂😂). There were so many volunteers and everyone was so excited for this module, maybe because it involved sheep? bekkk… bekkk… 🐑

There was even a “gay sheep” (he tried to have… relations with another sheep) and a very “homophobic leader” sheep who kept trying to protect the others. It was honestly hilarious. And then there’s “Masnah,” the female sheep, who is now officially Gali’s wife, she’s pregnant (not sure whose child tho 👀).

I really enjoyed myself! Out of nowhere I became the MC for karaoke night and also the tech crew 😭😭 (sorry to those who didn’t get enough time to sing 🥺🙏🏻). Now I know for sure I have zero talent for singing 👁️🤙🏻 We managed to catch veryyyyy extraordinary sunset

Today, I felt very adventurous! Being able to meet and interact with all of the animals was such a treat for an animal lover like myself. I was also enthused by the different teachings on their breeding and feeding. It takes so much science to ensure they can stay healthy and plentiful.

Furthermore, I was truly happy with the closing ceremony as the delegates got to sing their heart out and bond.

Day 7 was all about science and learning as we spent the whole day at the Glami Lemi biotech research center 🔬. Can’t deny—there was plenty of food around too, which made the day even better 😂. The hands-on sessions were definitely the highlight, really nailing the point of making sure we gained practical knowledge instead of just learning from text. The final session with Ms. Pauline was fantastic—her storytelling style just hit the spot and kept us all engaged. Even though the campfire had to be canceled because of the rain, the day still felt like a total bliss. Sometimes it’s the mix of learning and small joys that makes it memorable! 🙌

Today at Glami Lemi was unforgettable. It's not every day you get to learn practical skills like making silage and then apply scientific knowledge to something as cool as a sheep pregnancy ultrasound. A special shout-out to Mazna for letting us learn from her—it was an incredible hands-on experience. The whole environment at the Biotechnology Centre, with its stunning views of the mountains and trees, was so peaceful and inspiring. It was a perfect day of learning and appreciating nature. I really hope there's a chance to return in the future.

Our trip to Glami Lemi Biotechnology Centre 🌿🐑 was such a unique experience! We not only got hands-on practice with making silage and trying a sheep pregnancy ultrasound but also learned about different sheep breeds, their breeding, and feeding methods. It was eye-opening to see how science and care go hand in hand to keep animals healthy. Surrounded by peaceful mountains and trees, the day was both educational and inspiring. Truly unforgettable! ✨

The AUN Summer Camp experience in Malaka gave me more than just new knowledge—it gave me perspective. Exploring the city and learning about its history under colonization reminded me how culture and resilience are shaped through struggle. It made me reflect on how important it is to preserve stories of the past so that the next generation can learn and grow from them. At the beach, I joined a volleyball game, and even though it was just for fun, I realized how sports can break barriers and bring people together. That moment taught me that sometimes the simplest activities can create the strongest connections.

Visiting Glami Lemi Biotechnology Lab was another highlight. Even though I was exhausted and almost slept through the ride, the lessons about plant tissue culture and animal studies opened my mind to the link between science and sustainability. When Group 8 won first place, I felt proud not only of the achievement but of the teamwork that brought us there. Looking back, I see that this day taught me balance—between learning and resting, between knowledge and joy, and between individuality and collaboration.

It was an incredible mix of hands-on learning and pure fun! I started the day with a fascinating session all about animal nutrition, focusing on sheep. 🍽️🐑

It was my first time getting to see a pregnant sheep up close, and it was so cool to learn about their care. We even got to witness a live sperm collection and check the quality! 🔬 It was a super unique and eye-opening experience to hold a sheep myself. I just loved it. 🥰

Beyond the farm, we also dived into some new concepts about waste management ♻️, data analysis, and even a new way of thinking about problem-solving. It's amazing how much I'm learning!

And to top off such a busy day, we all got together for a super fun karaoke session! 🎤 It was the perfect way to unwind and celebrate with everyone. Such a happy and memorable day! ✨

Yesterday at Glami Lemi was a wonderful day. In the morning, we got to visit a sheep farm and see firsthand how semen is collected, see the young lambs, learn about food storage, and how a fermented drink that aids the sheep's digestive system is made. In the afternoon, we visited a lab and participated in tasks involving banana plants (making agar, culturing and propagating bananas in agar, potting bananas, and finishing with an online campfire). That was an interesting experienced and truly meaningful visited.🥰🐑🌦

# data[].attributes.body
We visited Glemi Lemi Research Centre, where we learned about sheep and their management, along with the importance of providing extra forage for better nutrition. It was a very interesting session that gave us new knowledge about livestock research.

After that, we studied plant tissue and observed the process of banana cultivation. Experiencing the practical side of plant science made the lessons even more exciting.

In the evening, we spent our time happily, singing songs together and enjoying ourselves. The day was truly wonderful and full of good memories.

It safe to say today’s activities are by far favourite, excited and fun since I’m really interested in microscience , vet medicine so on. Firstly, I met with ewe” for IVF reproduction and she’s really clever. I learned about the sexual intercourse of animals ( including ultrasound) . After that , I kept on studying about IVF like abnormal and normal eggs or sperm . The demonstrator showed in detail( bet I won’t ever regret that sorta experience again) .That was so fun yet I got trouble in dilution.

# data[].attributes.body
Today was wild but in the coolest way. We started with a walk to the farm, met some super chill sheep, and even learned about IVF and yes, actually collecting sperm and doing ultrasounds on animals. Then it was back to the lab for plant culture, where we worked with mini banana plants which were so cute. The seminar was crazy too we literally saw sperm under a microscope and learned how to dilute it. Wrapped up the night with a DIY karaoke session, and honestly the vibes were immaculate. 🔬💉🐑

# data[].attributes.body
I had so much fun yesterday. I stomped on feeds, collected sheep’s semen, saw sheep’s ultrasound and so much more. More to that I had the greatest time with my friends at Glami Lemi and I laughed so much. I’ve always loved animals and nature so yesterday’s activities are so up my alley.

Yesterday was a 8.9/10!!!

# data[].attributes.body
A day of biotechnology in Glami Lemi! I learned many interesting things. In the morning, I was instructed about applying ultrasound to examine pregnant sheep and collecting gametes from males. Afrerwards, I prepared food for sheep and some bioproducts from leaves, pineapples, sugar, etc.🐑🐏

In the afternoon, plant tissue culture and sheep sperm analysis were so great. Although I practiced several techniques many times at school, some of them were new to me such as staining animal cells. The instructors were so kind 🌱🧬❤️

Last but not least, the nature surrounding Glami Lemi was really significant! I love it so much 🏞️

Thank you for all these wonderful things 🌸

# data[].attributes.body
Today was jam-packed and fun. In the morning we learned about artificial insemination of Black Belly sheep at Glami Lemi. I even participated by collecting a sperm sample from a very eager ram, and we also learned about their diet and care.

In the afternoon we shifted to plant culture activities, where we made an agar composition, did banana sterilization, and planted banana plantlets. We also visited the lab to see different cultures and plant varieties, and later observed the sperm samples collected earlier.

We ended the day with an inspiring lecture on the importance of local data, empowering researchers, and networking, much like what is happening in this AUN summer camp in KL. Since it rained, we closed the evening with a fun karaoke session instead of a campfire.

I couldn’t believe we had already spent one week together. It felt both short and long at the same time. My day at Glami Lemi was truly thrilling because everything I experienced was something new for me. I kept discovering things that I had never tried before. Ofc, the food there was absolutely the best, and sharing meals with everyone made it even more special. Even though I am not from a scientific background, but our friends patiently explained and guided me, which really helped me to understand the lessons better. I felt supported, encouraged, and motivated to learn. This reminded me that learning is not only about knowledge, but also about teamwork and kindness.

went to Glami Lami and was really surprised by the beautiful view. I hoped to see some stray cats, but sadly I didn’t find any. The most fun part of the trip was the homemade campfire activity. We sat together, laughed, and enjoyed the night. I even sang “Golden” by Huntrix, and it made my throat hurt, but it was still a great memory. The whole experience felt special and full of good vibes.

On this day, first of all, we celebrate the Independence Day of Malaysia. After that, we've got a chance to study about the animal reproduction system. And also, we have a chance to do some experiment like collecting the sperms and seeing the ultrasound of the sheep. Also, we make some nutrition for the sheep. Because the sun was so bright, yes, then we have a chance to grab some delicious food there. There are a lot of birds around the campus. In the break time, I took a long nap like one hour.

Then, we enjoy the tissue culture studies. After that, we pack to return to our campus in Kuala Lumpur. And I love to meet new roommates there. I met Tilo and Lin Jim there.

My favorite part is the karaoke part. We sang a lot of songs together. And one memorable thing is that I fell down on the rocky ground when we have to take off from the campus. But I feel like I worth it because I got new experiences there. It was really fun and full of excitement the whole day.

Day 7 of the UM/AUN Summer Camp 2025 will never be forgotten.

I spent the day at the Glami Lemi Biotechnology Research Centre, where I gained practical experience with animal husbandry, and learned about plant tissue culture, and last but least was plastic management and important of research with data. It was entertaining and instructive. I sincerely value the opportunity to observe and gain knowledge firsthand, knowledge I intend to apply back home.

I had a great dinner with everyone in the evening, which was followed by a fun karaoke session and a cozy campfire. Singing and laughing with friends made me very happy.

This was a day to remember. I'm grateful.

Thank you 🥰🩵🩵

Today was an exciting whirlwind of new experiences and hands-on learning. From the moment the day began, I found myself diving into activities I had never tried before. One of the most fascinating things I learned was about composting how organic waste can be turned into rich, fertile soil. It made me appreciate the natural cycles of life and how waste can become something valuable again.

Then came a truly unexpected experience: learning about the artificial insemination of sheep. I was introduced to the various equipment used in the process, and even got to see what sheep sperm looks like up close something I never imagined I’d encounter! It was strange at first, but incredibly educational, especially in understanding how technology supports modern farming and animal husbandry.

Another highlight was experimenting with growing bananas without using any fertilizer. It was interesting to learn how alternative, sustainable farming methods can still yield healthy crops. Nature really does have its own quiet magic when we give it the chance.

To end the day, I helped make a simulated campfire complete with storytelling and laughter. Even though it wasn't a real fire, it brought warmth to the experience and made the day feel complete.

Coming to Glami Lami has been such a fun and eye-opening journey. Being surrounded by nature and learning about the way of life here has taught me so much, not just about agriculture, but about appreciating the world around us. I’ll carry these memories and lessons with me for a long time.

This is the best day so far really!!🤩 I love everything from the foods, activities, lectures and bondings we had together.

In the morning, we exercised through walking to the farm. It is been so long since I walked to a green and clean nature. I tried trying the ultrasound to see the sheep's baby.🐐 I also learned their food processing. I enjoyed it that made me appreciate how science and technology advances our community. We rode the truck going back and this is my first time to ride that kind of car hahahaha

In the afternoon, our group was really immersed in the plant tissue culture that we got to finish it immediately. I learned so much about research in the short talk about plastic pollution and really understand the importance of having a good data as it will serve as baseline and for your story.

Lastly, I had a lot of fun in the karaoke session. I sang a filipino song (Mr. Kupido) and I was shocked when all of them can jam as well! hahaha

😯😁🥰

For obvious reasons, I've never done an ultrasound before. And I didn't expect that i would do my first one on a sheep! But i did, and it was pretty interesting (?) and i don't wanna do it again. It was squishy and warm and weird. At least i got a nice ultrasound pic out of it though. Also, i didn't expect to watch my friends help sheep masturbate and collect their sperm, but i guess yesterday was a surprising day. Afterwards, we learned about tissue culture and looked around some pretty cool labs. In the evening we had a nice dinner (that was supposed to be by the campfire, but it rained💔), and did karaoke which was soooo fun! 10/10 day.

As someone who loves being around laboratories, microscopes, plants and animals. This day is the most amazing experience I've ever had, since the biotechnology research center is located in the mountain, I felt like I was home. Handling the black belly-sheep and checking for chances of pregnancy amazes me. Checking the quality of the semen that we got educated me. This day inspires me to do better in my field, environmental science. To hope the one day I can contribute something that I worked hard for. I love learning all the things with my friends, it makes the learning more fun and exciting.

# data[].attributes.body
The day at Glami Lemi Research Centre started on a high note with a hearty Nasi Lemak breakfast and a meet-and-greet with the Barbados Blackbelly sheep. I was amazed by how much research goes into their diet, housing, and breeding practices. Who knew Yakult was for sheep too? We even had the chance to collect semen samples and perform an ultrasound on one of them, definitely an experience to remember.

In the afternoon, we put on our “scientist hats” and analyzed the samples we had collected earlier. This was followed by a fascinating lecture on plant tissue culture, which gave us new insights into biotechnology (plus, we got free bananas as a snack!).

The academic side of the day was capped by an inspiring lecture from Ms. Geyrozaga on the recently concluded PlastiCon 2025. Her message on the vital role of data and youth in the path to net zero really emphasized the importance of camps like this.

We wrapped it all up with a fun karaoke session before heading back to KL.

A well-spent day indeed,

we spent the day at the Glami Lemi Biotechnology Research Centre surrounded by nature. We got to explore plant tissue culture and also learned about animal husbandry while spending time with the goats. It was such a fun and educational experience. The day ended perfectly with karaoke, where we all laughed, sang, and enjoyed ourselves together.

# data[].attributes.body
At Glami Lemi Biotechnology Centre, I really felt connected to both nature and learning. The welcoming ceremony and PPBGL introduction gave me a good overview, and I enjoyed diving into the Animal Module. We learned about livestock research, climate change mitigation, and reproductive technologies. One highlight was studying animal sperm and even observing them under the microscope during the practical it was so interesting and hands-on! The plant tissue session was also fun and engaging. To end the day, we had indoor karaoke in the auditorium, which made everything even more exciting and joyful. 🌿🔬🎤

# data[].attributes.body
Our day in Glami Lemi Research Centre started in a Barbados sheep farm! I learned how to do ultrasound to a pregnant sheep, make foods for the sheep, and even helped to collect semen from the male sheep with the help of the expert. Then, we had a hands-on laboratory experience about the plant tissue culture and learned how to analyze the sperm that we collected! I was actually already familiar with this as I'm majoring in pharmacy. After this, we had a very engaging session with Ms. Pauline about plastic waste and how dangerous it is to the environment! (P.S i love the food today the most!)

# data[].attributes.body
In the seventh day we went to Glami Lemi Biotechnology Research Institute. For me it was a pretty long and tiring trip since we went from Melaka and the institute is located between the hills in Negeri Sembilan. But we made a lot of fun there because we could touch (and have a deep talk 🤣) with the sheeps! One more memorable thing: I've been studying in Malaysia for 4 years now and I have tried Nasi Lemak for countless times, but the Nasi Lemak that was provided for lunch in the Glami Lemi Institute IS THE BEST NASI LEMAK THAT I HAVE EVER TASTED! 😋

I cannot overstate how liberating the series of activities have been for me. As a hopeless STEM student, I can never imagine myself being so focused on how to mix the food, do the ultrasound for sheeps or diluting their semen????

Full of surprises, and full of youth empowerment. Thank you for having faith in us and letting us experience this on our own.

We started the day with a super special Malaysian breakfast, nasi lemak, the best breakfast throughout the camp so far!

Our first stop was a sheep farm where we learned about breeding Barbara Black Belly sheep. At the biotech lab, we discovered how scientists select the best sperm for breeding, and even how to detect pregnancy using ultrasound. Apparently, you can check the backbone to see if it’s healthy or not—so fascinating! 🐑🔬

Next, we explored banana cultivation through plant tissue culture, which showed us how biotechnology can be applied to agriculture in such a sustainable way. 🍌🌱

In the afternoon, we attended a lecture by Ms. Pauline on plastic waste research. One of the most powerful points she shared was:

“Data drives strong policies. No data can lead to weak policy.”

This really highlighted the importance of research in shaping effective environmental action. She also mentioned the importance of research methodology.

Overall, it was such an inspiring and knowledge-packed day—definitely one of my favorites so far!

# data[].attributes.body
During the day we visited the farm and learned about biotechnology in sheep breeding. I gained so much knowledge about how to choose the best breed and how to create food that is rich in vitamins. I was especially happy and grateful to have the chance to learn how to use ultrasound on sheep, which was such a new and exciting experience for me. I also learned how to plant bananas using tissue cultivation, and it was fascinating to see how agar can be used as a medium for growth. Overall, it was a very meaningful and eye-opening day of learning.

Reflection

On the day, I was really close with nature and learned how the actual farm works. Because of my major, anthropology, I’m used to questioning. So in my head, I thought a lot about why we should use ART, what's pros and cons about plastic planting and so on. I really enjoyed this session because I could learn many new things with experiences. I think it’s important to have input first and output second to utilize that knowledge!!

Mellaca was such a blast! I felt so happy strolling around the heritage sites and trying laksa, it was delicious! The weather was super hot, but the beauty of the buildings was just breathtaking. I also went to the beach and took tons of pictures there. Truly enjoyed exploring Mellaca, the charming old town.

On the second day, we visited Glami Lemi Biotechnology Research Center, where I learned how to make compost and saw the sheep breeding process. I was surprised to find out that planting can also be done with agar. The seminar on net zero was really insightful. I realized that we still lack enough plastic researchers and proper methodologies to support the government in making effective policies. This visit really inspired me to start making small changes from myself🤩✨🪴

Today I had an exciting experience at the Glami Lemi Research Center of the University of Malaya. I got to touch a lovely sheep, learned many useful things about farming, and even had the chance to enter the lab for a research experience. This activity made me feel thrilled and truly broadened my horizons. 🍃🐑👣

# data[].attributes.body
The research facility at Glami Lemi was very conducive to learning about ecology, and the advancements we have come up with.

Knowing about how plant tissue culture makes plant propagation faster is also insightful knowledge to have especially in the face of unstable soil acidities brought upon by climate change, among other factors hindering plant growth.

I'm really excited to see where our knowledge of PTC will lead us, as it might be key to solving problems with food security, agricultural livelihoods, and other fields.
