the ns2 defense

just this morning, as a last day of our final exam, we also had our defense of our experiment in our major project.
throughout the experiment making, i was really pressured and we don't know what to do. even deciding on what to do first because everything seems to be our priority. there are a lot of paper works to submit for one subject and we were really complaining in ourselves since we can't complain in front of our professor...
we divided the paper works among my group mates but still it wasn't enough to lighten the burden. everything seems to be really messy and unorganized.
when we did our experiment, it was like a bad luck. we tour around the market to look for the materials we needed. and the worst is we broke a 1000ml PYREX beaker that cost 375 php. we damaged the table in the laboratory because we placed the very hot surface of the beaker into the table that damaged the paint.
then later that afternoon, we were suppose to rest because we don't have our 1pm class. but instead of taking a rest, my other group mates decided to replace the beaker that afternoon immediately. so we went to different branches of drugstores where equipments was also sold. we had the very hard time looking for that type of beaker because mostly were out of stock until we reached UM bolton, near the annex building just barely walking from the main campus in bankerohan and the weather was also quite bad because it was drizzling.
but at the end, we still succeeded replacing the beaker and going up and down the stairs with about 120 steps (it wasn't that exhausting!!!)
great lesson I've learned, DO THINGS ON TIME and THINK BEFORE YOU ACT (dili mag tinanga!!!)
going back with our defense last morning, it was also successful. we were able to answer the questions raised by our professor amidst the fact that we weren't totally ready. we were rushing in doing the visual aid but still gave us a good comment from our professor.
glad we made it up!!!
