[ 195. close shave ]

today chem prac started disastrously. firstly nid to burette out certain volume of
chemical and dilute to 250ml. then when i started diluting, i overshot the marking.
arghz. had to redo. wasted quite sometime.

then second part where we have to do expt on thermochemistry. i didnt read the
instructions closely. supposed to put the acid into the plastic cup then pour in the
powder... i went to put the powder in first. cannot re-do cos all the weighing
measurement regarding the powder had already been taken. so instead of adding powder
to acid in the plastic cup, i had to add acid to powder. wah, the reaction so
exothermic, then it let off steam and almost overflow... then i was too shocked
to look out for the highest temp. it fell very fast. so i no choice had to estimate
the highest temperature reached.

but luckily the titration and QA results were same as my friends...
then got this crazy teacher... we were discussing and comparing our results.
then quite a few of us got the same answers... then we were quite relieved and
excited. then he suddenly walked past us and say 'how u noe u are correct?' we were
like 'not your business anyway' we are happy we get the same answers.firstly unlikely
so many get the same answers and get it wrong... secondly, even if we are wrong,
at least we know we will all get wrong.

well end of practicals for me... phew. now left the 3 scary papers...
bio paper 3: not very familiar compared to the core topics.
maths paper 2: what to say?
chem paper 1 and 2: haf most confidence over the other 2. hope can do really well and
get an A if not at least a B.
