Not again!!

     Its weekend.. Had holiday for college and had thought of a hundred ways to spend this day .. As my fate would have it, I m down with cold and fever... Ufff !! Fed up of lying down and doing nothing... This week was not so good for me.. Practically all my practicals went wrong or were tedious..  Starting with the first one of the week which was Pharmaceutics..
1.. Had to submit three preparations for the day.. Imagine this... You have a bad cold and there is constant irritation in your ears... The instructor (coz that is all she does.. cant call her anything more than that) screams on the top of her voice without any actual need to.. Repeats useless things endless times.. Calls out roll numbers until the person too has to increase the pitch to match hers .. I feel she wasn't programmed to listen anything more than her own voice... Lols.. I felt like downing those darn solutions into her throat.. If you were me you would have thought the same.. If by chance you didn't have my degree of patience, I wouldn't object if you even did it..
2.. The last solution didn't turn out transparent brown ( if you happen to be in pharmacy then it was cresol soap solution I was making)  Endless combinations I tried to make it happen.. like adding water.. adding others solutions.. everything I could lay my hands on..  Finally gave up and simply added the cresol into my container and submitted. and prayed she doesn't open and test it.. Cresol causes skin to burn.. ( I had a burn of that too.. )
The next session thankfully went on smoothly..
  

Next day I had my Physical Pharmacy practical exam and with great luck (or hard prayers) I did get something I could do... Shudder to think what would have happened if I had got things I don't know... 

Coming to the source of all my despair ... MICROBIOLOGY....
 
1. Now I understand that if someone locked me up in a closed dish with lots of food... nutrient agar darlings!!  then put all sorts of colours on me and then put me under microscope to see which colour I liked , I wouldn't be very co-operative.. I don't grudge the micro organisms that.. But why me??? Everyone did that , then why me always who has to suffer?
2. The miss "will-shout-on-top-of-my-voice-to-get-noticed" is the incharge here too.. Here she doesn't even instruct properly.. Just parrots what others say... 

Prayed hard.. worried harder.. worked hardest..but no results.. I screwed it this time... :(  That was it...

The positive side is that I realised how much my friends helped me and cared..
1. Akshata giving her solution... bringing extra cresol for the final jugaad in the pharmaceutics lab..
2. Manasi waiting for me even after being asked to leave the lab after her work was done.. ( It's a big risk I swear in micro lab) I was soo worried and she hides near my table and asks "kuch help karu kya?? Diagram banau tere paper me?? Kisika slide lau uthake??? She did some daredevilry I must say.. 
3. Ketan let me use the microscope the longest time... :)  Collected my slides which were strewn all over the lab... Literally!!

SO everything isn't that bad afterall.. Thanks to the special light delights in life.. ITs worth bearing with the difficulties... 

P.S : Sorry if I bored you.. But it isn't fair that only I get bored of things.. I mean everyone should get an equal share...  
 Ahh forgot one thing.. If monkey begin to say they are supermodels.. Then what should  girl like me say??? nice thought na.. Making me confident of myself... Thanks to the monkeys!!  *Winks* I know the people who got this are rolling with laughter... Others sorry to confuzzze you darlings...
