Good morning friend its been a while we spoke, i admit that i wasn't getting the inspiration to post lately but im glad I'm over that now, i hope you didn't miss me too much because of what i did. Nonetheless i am here now so we can resume from where we stopped shall we??
How my day went |
|---|
As we all know, this is practical week and its been from one practical to another, but ever since this week started, we have not had any practical classes because the person in charge of that didn't communicate with us and all we had to do was to wait for him to make an announcement. So Tuesday passed, Wednesday passed and Thursday, he made an announcement asking us to come to his laboratory at Upstation Mendakwen Hotspot.
Given the fact that the message was urgent and the place wee were heading to was quite far, we had to rush as fast as we could to get there. I got to the laboratory at 9am that is after doing all the chores at home. The day started off with us cleaning the laboratory because things were a mess in there.
After 2 hours cleaning, we set up the bench dor work and the order of the day was microbiology and we were going to be making a nurient agar which we will use to grow bacteria by streaking. To know more about streaking and agar production please refer to my other posts on My Laboratory blogs there i make detailed lessons on the things we do in the laboratory.
After working for almost a while day, it was already 4pm and we had cleaned the whole laboratory,sterilised all the instruments,prepared the culture media, poured it in plates and now we have to streak it and then incubate it for the night and continue with observation tomorrow.
The class ended at 6pm and given where we were, it was obvious we were going to reach home in the evening but thank God we are in the summer solstice where we have longer days and shorter nights. The sun was still shining and it still felt like 5pm. When i got home it was already 7pm, i had not eaten anything, all i had was a banana.
I was tired and hungry and a little dizzy that i had to shut my eyes off for some time to regain my strength before taking a bath and having a meal to eat. This day has been so long but since i was with friends, it felt like we were having fun.
