So maybe I should have taken a chemistry class before jumping right into to A & P. Actually let me rephrase that I SHOULD have taken a chemistry class.
What you learn and then don’t use, you lose….its true.
Chemistry was 10 years ago, and I don’t remember much of anything about it.
So class the other night goes a little something like this.
“Take out your microscopes.”
What we are suppose to bring microscopes.
“They are in the cabinet beside each station."
Whew…thought I didn’t get that memo
“Turn them on; we are going to look at cheek cells”
What?!…turn it on…How?! ….watch the other girl, it will be okay….oh yes….plug it in…..wait mine didn’t come on…..oh the button, yes the on button…..hit the button…..where is everyone going?!? Follow them….oh to get a slide to look at cheek cells….how we going to do that….watch the other girl…watch the other girl….What, she is getting them out of her mouth, and putting on the slide….oh okay I can do that….whats that stuff they are adding to it….just add some who cares…..how are they getting the slides on the microscope……..mine won’t fit….…there is this big metal “arm” in the way…...really how did you get it on there?!? Crap going to have to ask for help?.....wait maybe I can just lay the slide on the top of this “arm” thing somehow…….wait…..the arm moves……oh yes I see….pull it out put the slide in…….it will hold your slide in place……makes sense, makes total sense……Maybe I am just thinking way too hard about this….?! Maybe I should just run out crying…..
Yes before taking a lab A & P class, taking a refresher in chemistry would be smart….learning how to use the equipment is important…They expect you to know this…They really expect you to know this….
Someone again, remind me….just why I signed up for this….
Oh yeah its that 8 hours between leaving for work and getting home….those 8 hours…I want to look forward to them!?!
Urg…so I carry on!!
