Entry #5 - Chromatography

Yep, I remember this.

Catastrophic Chromatography.

Haha, is that alliteration? Can't remember if alliteration is only for three and more, but I'm pretty sure that's counted under alliteration.

So...I'm sure I mentioned this to you in the earlier entries. We threw away the chromatography paper (I understand we do not have any reasons for this, and I will accept the whole-hearted annoyance of the Science teacher, however much I feel upset) and we had to dig it up again.

I think...this lesson really taught us some values of being a scientist. Documentation is important, and Science teachers have been reiterating that for so long, but it is our own fault that we chose not listen. In fact, even now I'm feeling sort of proud of myself that I began documenting my own learning process (plus all the lab stuff) after the chromatography incident.

So while I am certainly, and extremely, upset over it, at least I learnt something worthwhile from it. And I think that accounts for any unhappiness I have felt from the lesson.

Ok, so for chromatography, I remember this. Definitely. It was one of the stuff I did in primary school, and one of the first lab experiment I did in secondary school, so I know the procedures pretty well, in my opinion.

...I don't have to explain it, do I? I'm sure you Science peeps reading this would know, anyway...

Yep, so my only message here is: PLEASE COLLECT ALL OF YOUR DOCUMENTATIONS! You really don't want to end up like me...
