absence of teachers

There are no chemistry periods for today. At first, many of us thought to 'ponteng', as our math teacher has gone for some outings (for some sort of courses), besides, our biology teacher would be absent also... but we all still attended to school...
as expected, none of the teacher came into our class today =.="
which means, we went to school for nothing...
however, we had already planned what to do yesterday, we brought all of the insects caught + set, and gathered them, and chose those that could be used for presentation of our project~
erm... although the total was more than 25 (which required and stated in the experiment manual), but.. we still haven't searched for their names, etc...
so.. actually we ...still have to catch more ~ (if not mistaken.. sigh... still in planning about this..)

Again for biology, yesterday we repeated the enzyme experiment for the third time... which I mentioned before, using saliva...
first time, we used saliva (contained amylase enzyme) but most of us failed to get the result.. then the second time, we used the artificial amylase... but it had been expired (=.=")... so for the third time, we used back our saliva, but still failed to get the corect result!
so, we created the result on our own to get the correct graph and answer =p
erm... don't accuse us for not doing the right thing, we don't have that much time to keep repeating the experiment, which so many factors can affect the result obtained...
in fact, as what our teacher said, other than temperature(which is the variable to be tested for this experiment), the percentage of enzyme contained in the same volume of saliva differs for different persons...
therefore, for people (Hoon and me maybe?) whose digestive system is not functioning that well, indicates that we have less enzyme percentage than other people... (should be? hmm...)
well... so, maybe you can say we are lazy also, we have decided not to repeat the experiment again, and to pass up this report, we created the readings on our own according to theory~

for these three days, most of the form 6's classes moved from our own classes to labs.. as there were Muet exams held and our classes were used. but tomorrow we will move back to our own classes~
the atmosphere in school now.. is lack of study mood... as now is the end of the year..
although our syllabus are still in rush.. more and more to go... but... hmm..... teachers are busy, we are free (not that free also... haha.. so many homeworks to do especially biology's)
but we are now rushing with chemistry everyday also... haha
