But I'm still unfortunately and (surprisingly) alive.

I just reached the classroom, and my friends aren't here yet, so I suppose I need to be alone for a while :/

Killer Pipette

Who? Who? Which idiot invented the pipette?!?!?!

Anyway, I had a mock Chemistry practical exam today. I first had to do a titration, which is actually pretty simple if you don't have crappy pipetting skills as me. I took forever for the first trial, and ended up drinking a little bit of Sodium carbonate in the process, but fortunately the next two trials were better. My chest really hurt doing that. Now that would have killed me. No, it wouldn't, but I want to exaggerate. My values were so......
Trial 1: 9.4
Trial 2: 8.7
Trial 3: 9.3
The teacher herself manipulated the last value and made it 9.4 for my convenience. In the middle, she asked me some oral questions, and my stammering! *slaps self*

The problem was I took too long for the titration and didn't have enough time for the salt analysis. I took my dish, felt it, inspected it a bit and wrote the steps for Barium chloride. I only tested two things and the rest was just guess work. I hope it's right!

However, I made a stupid mistake, so now I'm upset over that......

May͛a (rhapsodyinblue) | 1451 comments Relatable! :)

Come on, pipettes are actually hard to handle. I actually think they were made to test someone's patience. However, how did you end up drinking some sodium carbonate?


message 3762: by Hallie (new)

Hallie (inkyhallie) | 16412 comments Thank goodness someone agrees! All my classmates do it with ease, so I'm the only one struggling with it. Well, I was supposed to pipette the sodium carbonate and pour it into the conical flask, but I messed up somewhere and some air bubble entered the pipette. I don't understand how this thing works, so I tried to continue and even though I have so much trouble bringing the liquid to the required point, it just came up with a great force and went into my mouth before I realized that it had crossed the limit xD Okay that probably makes zero sense, but I myself don't understand how that happened.


message 3763: by May͛a (new)

May͛a (rhapsodyinblue) | 1451 comments Hey, you never know if they were hasty on the values! I don't know which types you use, but I find all of them a bit hard since I spend a lot of time trying to perfect everything. The 'pipette' I used in my biology class looked something like this (view spoiler) and if you were to ask me now how it functions, I won't be able to explain. Some pipettes in this universe even require setting up, can you imagine that? I do hope the liquid was just a little, though.

sara (hazysunsets) eurgh i hate my geography teacher he doesn't know where he is half the time and I needed notes for the test and I waited for like 15 mins and I came the day before and he came and I told him I need the notes because he still hasn't given it to us and he was like ' im going to the toilet' and he didn't come back

Mays, the stupidest model, I think. I have the feeling it's the most basic one since it's just one plain, stupid tube. Just a little, but the thought of it makes me feel sick.

Sara, it's fine! :) That sucks! My teachers are so much better now! Do you think you can make your own notes? It's what I do in Botany because I don't like my teacher's notes.

Alia ~you are not your anxiety~ (aliaongoodreads) | 1727 comments Oh I'm so bad at measuring with a pipette too, Hallie! I pretty much panicked about it one time and ended up going to my teacher. She said "if you just fill it up near this general area, the results will show." I understand that's not the case with more advanced labs. Hope it is a while before you use them again!

Aw Sara :( I'm sorry about that. Always annoying when teachers aren't willing to help.

I actually think that my favorite teacher became my favorite when they encouraged us to come for help without judgment if we needed it! I don't need help all that much, but on the occasions when I did (often when I was absent and missed something) they and my second favorite teacher dropped everything to help me. Whereas with some others, it took a while to get a small amount of their attention...

Hallie (inkyhallie) | 16412 comments My teachers told me to shut up and do it, so uh I don't know. Well, I need to use it again next week, but that's the end of it for this year. Hopefully.

My teachers dump that part of the work on the class prefects, but they sure encourage us asking for help. My problem is that I'm too scared to go ask them xP

Hallie (inkyhallie) | 16412 comments But I kind of like the cold. Not extremely cold (even though I prefer extremely cold than hot), but a little cold is fine.

No wonder why people can be cold-blooded xD

Did they literally tell you to shut up? That's kind of rude. Ah okay. Well, just gather up all of your patience, and look forward to the time where you'll never have to see it again. :)

Well, we don't have class prefects here lol. Just people who get better grades and so are asked for help. I sometimes am one, and depending on the day, I either give a very solid and confident answer or stammer and say that I don't know because either I'm too lazy or I believe my educated guess is stupid.
Oh literally same XD I was debating during a whole period yesterday whether to go see my teacher after. I ended up doing it, but I had to avoid my friends and sneak around a group of people who looked at me weirdly. It went okay though XD

My problem is that I'm so so shy and almost embarrassed with it. When I act like my best self, or at least the part of me that I think is the best, it goes over well with adults and not as well with peers. I'm afraid to say anything besides "Okay" and "Thank you" because otherwise I'll actually bond with them a little, which my brain sees as too odd and something to be avoided. Don't ask me why, because I actually enjoy spending time in some people's classes!

Thank you for taking care of Plutonium! I'm so sorry I haven't been on much this week. Busy getting back after a break.

Yeah :/ One of the teachers is fine, but the other one is extremely rude. She just randomly calls people idiots and stupids even when they didn't do anything wrong and we're just minding their business. Yep! :) Maybe next year, but we have a lot of time until then.

We have prefects exactly for that reason xD It's kind of hard to judge who gets better grades because my class has way too many people in it for some strange reason, and sometimes we don't even know who answered (happened a billion times to me).

I still have a doubt in Chemistry, and even though my teacher is super-friendly and encouraging, I'm still too shy and afraid to go to her. I don't even have the courage to ask my friends about it, and I've had this doubt for about a week or so.

Haha I'm exactly the same! xD People think it's weird, but I'm glad I finally found someone who understands!

Oh, it's been my pleasure! :) You don't have to apologize! Life gets in the way sometimes, and it's perfectly fine to take a break.

Are we sure?

Okay, so about the cab in the morning. My bus driver just called out to the girls who regularly go and told them to book a cab. Three of them protested and told him to select new people to send in the cab. But he only replaced one of them because she seemed rather firm about gluing herself to her seat. So he spoke in Irish, and that meant me. So tadaaa! Two minutes later, the four of us were outside waiting for the cab.

It was slightly drizzling when we got out, so three of us put up our hoodies (uh technically I put mine my head ages ago and never put it down even inside the bus), and the fourth girl didn't even have a pullover. Poor girl stood shivering, and her classmate just kept saying, "It's cold!!" She did hug her to keep her warm, and that scene looked rather cute. Then the same girl who was shivering couldn't use her data to see the cab's location, so I shared mine. And instead of saying, 'What's the name of your device?', she accidentally told, "What's your name?" It was so funny!

Then we crossed the road to go to the other side and the driver called us. My friend picked up, and he asked her whether our location was correct. Uh yes?! And guess where he showed up! The spot we were before we crossed the road! And then he argued that it wasn't the direction to our school. Okay.... Just when we were getting in, he asked, "Are you sure about the location? *insert name of our school*?"

*shrugs* Uh of course we know where we go to school!

The three of us who sat in the back were listening to music, so the driver kept asking the friend who sat in the passenger seat questions. Thank goodness I didn't sit there! When we got down, she told us what he asked her, and whoa!

First he asked whether we always do this sharing a cab business to go to school, and since she didn't want to explain the whole story, she simply said yes. Then he asked her whether we had exams. She answered no, and he explained that he got that vibe because we were so silent and looked stressed. The four of us were like, 'Okay....... 😒😒😒'

When we reached the school, the fare had turned out to be a little more than what our bus driver gave us, so my friend and I literally hunted for that money because it was so small and we had money of greater value (makes no sense, Hallie...) Sorry, my brain doesn't know how to explain it better. And during this process, he said, "It's fine! I can neglect that amount. I just hope the service was good." I found some in my purse, so we paid it anyway.

But that was kind of strange.

And did the temperature just drop?????

List of Bad Attributes

I made a list of my bad attributes about a year ago, which my friends tried to disagree with, but it's true. And I've only become a worse person now, but I'm going to leave this here for reference while creating my character in Plutonium. So here goes:

• Malevolence/Antagonism
• Impertinence
• Indolence
• Pride
• Wrath
• Impatience
• Attitude
• Irritability to silliest things
• Lack of flexibility/Narrow sightedness
• Pessimism (if you count that)
• Cynical outlook
• Insufferable sarcasm (no, really, my sarcasm is terrible)
• Criticism of anything and everything
• Dishonest
• Not obedient
• Stupid and lacks common sense

Sort of, but she English is terrible. Don't even get me started with her enunciation! She has this strong Scottish accent and the vocabulary of a five year old. Umbridge can do better than that.
