#i didn't think i would love going to the lab so much i prefer to wear a mask for the whole day than to stay home#you know what that is? growth and the right people#now i don't want to 🦉 but it's gonna be the first time in a really long time that I'll see the same people every day for a whole year#i hope I'm gonna be able to build something stable and strong because i desperately need it rg#*rn#only downside is we all live really far away from each other so hanging out outside the lab will be challenging#but we'll see#also doing you little reactions and tlc and nmr is sooo funny you get to measure things and use funny little machines#and get frustrated when things go wrong and sometimes the numbers won't make any sense and you'll color your tlc to see amines or benzile#or hydroxile groups and you'll be like omg look at it!!!!#and you'll evaporate your solvent and fight with the machine but you'll have nice little white freckles of something and you'll be so happy#you can't wait to go on with the reaction#and sometimes you'll decide to hate a stirbar for no real reason so you put it in jail and joke about it with the other people in there and#you'll give funny names to smelly compounds and you'll be exhausted by the end of the day but so enriched#also because you spent lunch break sharing your pets pictures#i think life should always be like this
