science experiemntsa

[phil]

i was in science at school doing experiments. they were thew good old days, we all new what was going to happen but thats whats so good about experiments. theres no subsistuite for hands on experience.

like the magnesium ribbon in the flame number, whoo it burns brightly. that was pretty much the first chemistry experiment you do

i used to cry in chemistry because it made my mind boggle too much. my teacher told my mum i was going to be an important scientist. how wrong she was...what i hated was they wouldnt answer all your deep questions...there was so much you had to accept in science lessons as a given and i couldnt ever do that. physics was terrifying. biology i really enjoyed but im very squeamish about descriptions of the body so i had to leave a lot before fainting. plus i refused to do any animal cutting up experiments. i would hate to go back to science classes

i just drank some orange juice in an experimental way and now it's coming out of my right nostril.

i was lucky, i had good teachers, my chemistry teacher loved me cos i always asked him really difficult questions and he had to go away and look up the answers

my chemistry teacher hated me and when our class had to do some test for Amonia with test tubes and weird bottles from the top shelf he picked me out to test it...

"how do i test..." i asked...

"sniff it".....he replied..

thus i sniffed a fairly big....SNIFF...

i then had to be helped out of the class room by my fellow class memebers..slowly turning green.....while he fucking laughed about it!!!

my mum still wants to whip his ass....

i hate chemistry.

[bitch one]

and then i almost became an actual scientist after a brief flirtation with medicine where i sliced up a dead person for a year

i like the smell of Amonia. it reminds me to my summer holidays a few years ago. i worked at the firm of my dad and i had a lot of money... ;)

oh damn what did he know....
your now the queen of complaining about venue sound systems with stage managers.. ( in a good way :) )

[decadnids]

Bitch one, you sliced up a dead person for a year? did you have breaks, or was it continous slicing?

[bitconductor]

doing a rat was one of the most interesting things to ever happen to me at school

Amonia...the smell of cash?

[decadnids]

i remember the ticker tape timers - and how you would attach the ticker tape to the wooden car and use the ticker tape to plot acceleration and stuff like that. them where the days!

no we did get time away. the freakiest thing was they had big plastic bins full of disembodied limbs. you'd take the lid off and there'd be all these white hands floating there, waving their fingers at you.

[decadnids]

@Bitch - how come you didnt want to carry on ?
or is it more of a hobby these days? ;)

[animal night train]

what did you name your corpse?

[penciLneck]

@osd - crackhead.

[bitch one]

strangely, we never named her. tho she was quite a fatty so perhaps 'betty' or some other round-sounding name. it meant we had to spend a lot of time removing fat deposits. not a pleasant task.

[wheezer]

might be, but that's where the money's at

[TroyMoyOnions]

@ Bitch one....

so is wat they say in that film Fight CLub true then....human fat being number one bomb making material?....
if so... can you get your hands on any ) ?

I liked the experiments with Lithium & Potassium on water. The highlight was stealing some and keeping it in a paper towel and then launching it into a urinal when peeps in your class were mid-stream. I think that actually led to a suspension or two....

[TroyMoyOnions]

what happened?

[mlexicon]

i disected a worm....i was so amazed at the intricacies of it. It has a stomach, heart, digestive tract,.....everything just about.....I never hurt another worm again.....felt bad for all my torture chambers I would make for them as a kid

[mlexicon]

a lil firey explosion onionz

It fizzes up and this really bright light comes out and I can't remember if it pops at the end or not. I suspect some had a chemical burn and that is why the guy got suspended (the only one to own up - idiot). I remember someone got caught trying to set fire to Magnesium with a match not realising the flame wouldn't be hot enough...too funny and too stupid.

[bitch one]

what about long haired girls putting their hands on teacher's van der graaf generator? a hair raising spectacle.

[TroyMoyOnions]

Fun with Physics eh... :)

[TroyMoyOnions]

or is this chemistry....

[penciLneck]

are those before and after pictures?

[phil]

i would love to say yes.

[amble]

i liked it when our physics-teacher put an almost rotten apple in the pressure-chamber (or whatever that is called) and it looked fresh again. i was a bit disillusioned when he took it out i must confess - another chance of cashmaking business gone.

we never seized any animals though. :(

i had a few bad accidents with gylcerine & potassium permanganate.. don't mix them..
