woohoo. mid-terms over =)
was caught looking at adi's paper. i didn't know i was being watched. adi realized, and flipped his notes to some other page, cuz he wrote a freaking big clue as to how to do a 21 mark question that i was stuck at for more than half an hour. if the tutor had seen that, we would've have been screwed. anyway, nothing much. she came over and tapped our heads with her paper. i gave her a what-are-u-doing-im-concentrating-here look. but ya, i'm really glad she didn't report us to the co-ordinator. eventually i knew how to do the question, thanks to adi for discretely showing me how to do it. BUT because of a stupid careless mistake at the very first part, my answers were all wrong. i was supposed to multiply, but i went to divide the goddamn thing. hah... i really don't know what to say about myself.
i've gotta work harder.
anyway, i went for a general biology open lab yesterday with serm and hh to observe fruit flies as part of an assignment. it was an eye-opener. FLIES ARE DISGUSTING UP CLOSE. as in when they are
really magnified under the microscope. they made my hair stand. it's really like, EUW. at first i didn't even wanna be close to the microscope eyepiece cuz it felt like the flies were very near my eyes. after a while, i juz got used to it. oh, they were all anesthetized, and were taking "fly naps" lol. some could move a little. and i saw one that i assumed to have shit stuck to its asshole. and hh killed a fruit fly. he was trying to get the fruit flies out of this tiny container onto the tile, but he accidentally crushed the poor thing and it kinda bled. and it looked totally gory under the microscope. =) fun. i didn't know those things bleed. anyway, he said it was a life changing experience for him. i guess it must be. since he doesn't kill anything. i still remember begging him to kill this stupid bug for me and he didn't even budge from his lousy chair. =/
happy saturday peeps.
