(no subject)
This past week I have:
-Written 5 tests
-Had a few labs
-Had an assignment due
-Saw a very masculine looking female walk into the washroom, thought she was man (I still sort of think she/he is) and made a friend with someone over this issue, because when I saw the creature, I took a double take, and this other girl in the washroom saw me take a double take, and was just as confused as I was. We waited for the creature to come out of the stall so we could confirm its identity. We watched the creature as it washed its hands, and, sadly, even after this observation, no conclusions about its gender were drawn.
-Got yelled at by the scary chemistry lab demonstrator…
We work with crazy chemicals in labs, and the lab TA's are very strict about us not dumping the chemicals down the sink, because "they get into the drains" blah blah blah. So, I'm clearly not so good at following this rule, and during our lab I walk right over to the sink and into it I dump out an entire beaker of acid, and start washing it out with water. Just then, (the timing on this one was perfect), the scary lab demonstrator comes over, and goes "YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO DUMP THE ACID DOWN THE SINK!!!!!!" so I was scared. like, really scared. So, I said "No, no, no!! That was just water I dumped down there!" And somehow she believed me. I have no idea how, because I must have looked horribly terrified, and guilty. So me and my lab partner continue on with our business, and, as if this wasn't enough excitement for the day, I manage something just as brilliant at the end of the lab. We had a waste beaker, where the acid that I dumped down the sick was SUPPOSED to go, anyway, there were some other chemicals in there as well (I did manage to get something right), and at the beginning of the lab, we were told not to dump the contents of the waste beaker down the sink, for obvious reasons, as stated above. So we are all rushing around cleaning up, and the next thing you know, there I am at the sink dumping my waste beaker down the drain. Now, the scary lab demonstrator wasn't there, however, this is equally as bad, because when she looks at each station (we are assigned stations, so she can track me down), and sees there is an empty waste beaker at station 11, this is not going to make for a very happy lab demonstrator. So I look at my lab partner, and proceed to produce a solution of waste, that looks strikingly like our old one. The majority of our faux waste beaker was composed of water, which was slightly a problem because the real waste solution was purple. So we proceed to add various chemicals to it, and by the end it looked as good as ever. At one point scary lab lady walked by, but I smiled at her, and she left me alone.
And that my friends is all.
I hope you are all doing very well.
