Ugh.

I am so ready to be done with chem lab!!! Which sucks to say because I really enjoy labs. I just really do not enjoy working with two of the three people I'm stuck with. The girl is nice and is always the one to write a procedure but when it comes time to do/measure/experiment it seems like common sense goes out the window. For instance, we had to remake standard solutions for an equilibrium experiment and I told her the grams per acid volume twice. And for some reason she started measuring water with an eyedropper... I'm like, "umm what is that for?" I tried to correct her but she hastily said, "I know what I'm doing," so I'm like "alright then," and proceed to do what I was doing with the other solution. 10 minutes later she looks up and is like, "wait, what am I doing this for?" Lmfao "I tried to tell you.."

Then there's MrMeanMath... ughhh. So he evaluated my initial lab report and beforehand he looks at me and says, "Just so you know I am really critical on evals," but then proceeds to snap a pic of my stoichiometric equation for the whole reaction... then proceeded to nit-pick my english!!! It was seriously just reversing sentences, and crossing stuff out because I called out his data-gathering as a source of error. Granted, he did help with a missing formula and explained his numbers, but I emailed him asking about the data.. to which he never responded. Oh but here's the kicker: our school's email system is essentially gmail with the chat option for contacts. His name was 'online and active' according to the chat prior to me writing this email... yea well because I was still logged in while finishing my report, HE WAS ONLINE FOR 2 HOURS AND DIDN'T RESPOND. So, I let his peer eval have it.
