WHOA!!!
this SHOULD be quick coz i have a lab report to finish.
i just feel i shouldn't let this pass.
today i learned a very important lesson on humility. first, i never expected this day to turn out the way it did. ivy and i are ok now. haha. i mean, i realized just now how swollen-headed and twisted-minded i was. i was keen on pretending that everything is ok between the two of us, when in fact it's not. now i know how hard it is to swallow one's pride for the sake of friendship. it's like swallowing a very bitter antidote for cough. icky, but it would make you loads better.
and another dose of my pride. i finally got to my senses and seeked the help of my CM1502 lab partner. i couldn't get the solubility product constant CONSTANT for all the solutions. i already spent the whole weekend trying to figure out the right calculations to be made, but to no avail. i was very hesitant to ask for her help because i didn't want her to think i'm stupid. (well, i guess that IS being stupid. usually, i only ask help from people who are close to me. kung hindi, mamatay na lang ako kakasolve but i won't ask for help). anyway, i decided to bug her for my queries and she willingly helped me. now i know which part of my calculations had gone wrong. the concept is right but the volume of potassium bitartrate should be 25 ml, not 100 ml. see, napaka careless. hindi ko pa makikita sa lab manual na 25 ml nga kung di nya nabanggit. paulit-ulit kong binasa ang manual pero 100 ml talaga nakatatak sa brain ko.
so there. humility. bow.
