the advertures of lab
(entry transferred from paper 9/6/05)
i am writing this during my chem lab. (i guess i am officially addicted seeing how i continue to blog even without the computer) i fell asleep in the library right before class and then i woke up and for some reason i swear i thought my phone said 6:05pm. So i went to class which is at 6:15pm. I walked in and sat down, and there were a lot of strange people in there. they were all taking notes from the board but i didn't recongize anyone except my teacher. then i looked at the board and it was filled with regular chemistry notes and then i looked at the clock, and it was only 5:30pm. i walked and sat in on the class right before my lab. i sat there for a good ten minutes and then left hoping to spill some acid so that the floor would disentegrate and i could fall in. anyways next subject, My teacher, omg, i have no idea what her name is. damn, i need to look at my schedule. nvm. anyways, she is italian, about 30-40 yrs old, she looks italian only in the sense that is she a very strong advocate of fine italian designers. She's got Louis Vuitton (did i spell that right?) everything, and she wears a lot of "rich-looking-italiany-type" clothing. However she does put on an excessive amount of makeup. her bangs are seriously puffed out - crazy. she has a really quiet, shaky voice. i have no idea what she's saying most of the time but the lab is easy enough so i don't pay attention. last week, we did some simple graphing. i finished - oh i just got my lab exercise back, got a 100, whoopy - anyways so i finished the exercise pretty quickly - pretty simple graph but everyone in my class was takng uber long and all these people kept going up to ask the teacher questions, so it freaked me out.. in my head i was thinking, it's really easy right? or is it not really easy? am i overlooking something. after like 30 minutes of self doubt and redoing all 3 graphs 2 times, i asked her if my calcuations and graph were right and she said yes. so i turned it in and then once again i was trapped in my confused little head. am i allowd to go or are we going to have lecture. she didn't say anything to me when i turned it in. i didn't want to ask her if i could leave because i don't know, that's weird for me.. so i waited yet another 15 minutes (the class is from 615p - 9p since we only meet once a wk) and then the guy behind me turns his in and asks her if he can go. she says yes and i'm like screaming in my head. i coud've been out at like 7. geez cut into my out-of-school studying time at awesome barnes and nobles. now to bring y'all back to the dire current situation. we are now doing significant figures. oh dear, the tragic beginning of a new semester with all it's building basics. now we, a class of 20+ are all sharing 3 scales. oh yeah. all 3 scales are totally ancient, like the scale that the "Justice" holds. now we're waiting for yet another awesome experiment to unfold with, hold onto your seats.... beakers of water. hey and not just any kind of water, distilled water. i know, i know, pretty exciting stuff we got going on in Hawaii. by the time we're finished, i'll probably
*break - actual work time*
have written the longest blog i've ever written that isn't conneted to the pathos of my emotions. that is quite a surprise. ok i'm done with my worksheet. geez, it's 8:15p already. this class has kept me hostage long enough. i'm turning in my worksheet.. i can take my hot peach ginger twist hot tea already...
