WELCOME
A place where I note down littles of my life to share with my dear friends. 
3rd day of lab and something BIG happened in the lab. My supervisor asked a lab officer to assist me in my proj. I hav to synthesize a compound. Throughout the experiment, the lab officer was doing herself, with me behind her. But i found tat there is reali something wrong with the setup of the apparatus. I told her abt it but she ignored me. Also, one of the compounds reacts violently with water, but the condenser used had water dripping as the temperature was too cold. The setup was such tat it was enclosed.
Without even starting the reaction by adding 1 cpd to the other one, an "explosion" happened. The apparatus shot out and crashed on the floor, the toxic cpd spilled on the ground. All the lab officers evacuated out of the lab as if the whole lab was crashing down. It was reali a big matter to them but not to me lo. But i still got called to the office by my supervisor and head to department. All of us were confused as to y the apparatus gave way without any reaction yet. 1st we tot of presence of water then i realized its due to setup of apparatus wrongly. Pressure builtup happened in the enclosed system.
I dunno tat the lab officer had no chemistry background lo. So i tot she knew how to carry out the experiment. Also, i got told her the setup was funny but she nvr heeded my advice. Hai, i oso dun dare to say tat the system was set up by the lab officer, since she is more experienced.
My proj was stopped as it was dangerous. Now i m rotting in lab. The lab officers there are nice and friendly. Their routine work is to do analysis on food for any toxicity. I got to ka-pok on any food alreadi tested and passed, like crackers and chocolate.
