Getting ready to throw all of my hard work away
Apparently this is what my work is worth! Non-hazardous TRASH!
All in all I had a great time in lab this semester. I made a lot of things, learned a lot of things, and laughed with friends. I had some rough times but I adore getting hands on and making something. I really found this lab enjoyable
Stay healthy Lovelies!
