I forgot to mention in my last post how wonderful my labs are going. While in chemistry I was able to talk my way into some extra marks it still doesn't take away all the frustration and stress of having to deal with my partner. On monday we were doing a theory lab, so no chemicals just a bunch of questions and lectures. I was about a 2 pages ahead of him on the worksheet, so I decided to go for a walk while I wait for him to catch up, I came back 15 minutes later and he was no further ahead than when I left. Forget him, I'm just gonna do my work so I can get outta here, so I left him there.
Then thursday we went in because we had to make up time for one of his previous screw ups. I insisted that I do all the work so that it get's done the right way quickly. I must admit though, I was glad he was there because I did need his help at one point. I needed him to fetch me the acetone, because I super glued my hand to the table and couldn't get it off without the chemical. Near the end though he did manage to screw it up again. Hopefully he didn't do to much damage because we don't have anymore time to redo it.
Then friday in microbiology we were preparing a bunch of slides with live specimens of molds and bovine blood. We were supposed to dye them so they would be visible under the microscope, but before that they have to be diluted in a solution then left to dry. I prepared most of my slides, about an hour and a half worth of work, then my professor offered to take students on a tour of the lab in the hospital. So I set aside my slides to dry, and went. My partner stayed behind to continue "working". When I came back half hour later I found that all he had done was a bunch of the same slide about 10 times over, and he had wrecked all of my slides. Grrrrrr!
The only thing that got me through yesterday's lab was knowing there is only one lab left.
