I'm really tired.
Just waiting for time to pass… Until when I can finally go home. Not that I hate it here; I’m just really really tired. Is there something wrong with me, being this tired after 6.5 hours of sleep? I don’t know.My lab techniques have always been pretty bad, and I’m terribly slow. Still am, but I think I’m slowly improving. I mean, today’s the second time I’ve done a standard addition of strontium using the graphite furnace. The readings were not good though; the graph is not linear. So I’d have to redo the experiment. This is my second attempt already. Actually when something goes wrong, I’m totally lost. I’m not sure if I’m supposed to troubleshoot. And I’m kind of worried, cos I’m still not very familiar with operating the GFAAS, especially the aligning part. These past few days LJ has been helping me to set up the instrument while I prepared the solutions. So when it’s finally time for me to do it on own…
We’ll see.
Don't worry! Slow and steady wins the race!!!
ReplyDeleteI still make some dumb mistakes in the lab, and am learning a new thing or two every once in a while. It's a learning experience, isn't it?
And, I'm tired EVERYDAY, even when I had 8 hours of sleep... So I guess it is normal!
