Ultimate Blurness

today was the first day of the second week of second semester uni.

My schedule was as such la:-
8-9 am Introductory to Microbiology lecture
9-12pm Chemistry lab
12-2pm Human Biology lecture

I woke up at 6.30 this morning and boy was it hard to open my eyes! To make things worse, it was raining....cooling....tucked under my quilt....ah...warm...in the end, i woke up at nearly 7 and i had to catch a 7.30 bus! I left the house at 7.29 am but as i was walking to the bus stop, i saw the bus pass by right in front of my eyes =S oh well, i thought that i'll just catch the next bus which was to arrive 7.45 and it just takes 10 mins to reach uni. but (as the title mentions) as i was blur, i forgot to take into account the traffic jam. SO....the bus was late, arriving at 7.50 AND the traffic was heavy and thus i reached uni by 8.10. was about 15 mins late for class. sigh

This is where i wait at whenever i wanna go to uni


the next blur incident was during chemistry practical. We were doing saponification of ethyl benzoate to produce benzoic acid crystals. One of the procedures is to add 3M of sodium hydroxide into ethyl benzoate. but somehow, i read wrongly and I took 3M sulphuric acid instead of sodium hydroxide. I suppose i just read "3M" and i just assumed that the rest of the wordings was sodium hydroxide. Now, that's a REALLY bad thing to do especially in chemistry as you'll never know whether that mistake can cause an explosion! All in all, I wasted about 1 hour of my partner's and my lab time but we managed to finish the experiment on time. ^^

During Human Bio lecture, there wasn't any blur incidences but it was pretty interesting. The lecturer for the first half of the lecture is a soft-spoken lady (pretty boring too). Anyway, nobody could hear her from the back of the hall and mind you, the hall is big! (can seat a maximum of 600 over people) so, she tried putting the mic louder but that didn't work either. Then, she called a technician but that didn't help either. In the end, we wasted a whole 1 hour(first half of the lecture) waiting for nothing. More than half of the hall left!!! The last half of the lecture went very well with no glitches. hmm.....i just think that the first lecturer was plain soft-spoken. I pity her because it's as if she gets no respect for her soft voice and boring ways.



well, there are other incidences where i was blur but i sort of forgot the exact details. Briefly, i think i misread something again but didn't cause a major set back, just great embarrassment. anyhow, my point is today was not exactly normal and i was pretty blur, making it a pretty eventful day.
