The evils of chemistry...

Just spent eight hours doing chemistry homework. The first five problems were pretty easy, with conversions and use of the speed of light and Planck's constants ... and then I stepped into quantum mechanics. Why, chemistry, WHHHHHYYYYYY??!?! *weeps*

So I spent eight hours doing seven chemistry problems. Seven. And then, going back through to correct my stuff, I find out that I continuously lose track of a stupid little square symbol that throws off every other part of my equations. *throws pencils around in a fit*

To top things off, we don't even officially cover quantum mechanics until tomorrow. *looks at stack of paper used to do problems* I think I killed at least a tree today.

She has yet to spend 20+ hours in a laboratory doing one out of five projects due in the quarter.

Whaaaat? Please tell me that's one of YOUR labs and not one of mine... I haven't had to put 20+ hours on a single lab yet... Although Engr 100H last quarter had some long lab nights.

I remember making at least 30 microfiltration dishes one night. I had to take two showers that day because I smelled of ColiBlue 24 afterwards.

o.O; I am suddenly very glad I almost failed chem in grade 11, if it caused me to avoid taking it in university. O.o;
