That my experiment group memebers get mad at me for changing the experiment on them a THIRD time. Well, I guess it couldn't be all that bad, since they're never around here much anyway. But I don't want to keep changing the experiment and keep them in the dark about it. I feel like I'm always trying to be group leader, maybe I'm just a natural leader, who the hell knows? The only other person doing their part is the guy in my group... the other two girls aren't really doing anything, at least I don't think so. But in the end, I guess this could benefit me because it's teaching me a lot about how to design experiments and that it's okay to design one and not have it work out and then you have to go back through and redesign it and try again. I guess the best experiments don't come easily at all. I heard that it took Thomas Edison over 100 tries to give us the lightbulb and then people laughed at him. So this experiment has only taken three tries so far... I just feel like I'm hogging the work and I don't want to but it seems I've been doing it.
So in conclusion, the worst thing that could happen to me is that my group memebers get extremely irriated with me today and I guess it could benefit me because it will have taught me that even the best of scientists take lots of tries to get their experiments right and that there is a benefit to starting things early... since we started our experiment way before everyone else started theirs....
