My Looooooove For LFS151

My experience in life science 151 
Life Science has become an AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWSOME experience, where I have had an opportunity to learn in a lot col ways like from friends, peers, tutors and practical’s. In my experiences as a first year in Life Science I have been introduced to a variety of work to aid me in the scientific world I will be working in as an adult.

My LFS short for life science lessons come in lectures, tuts and practical’s. In our lectures we have the entertaining Maryke Meerkotter Malan, who prepares us for the lesson and chapter. Then in our tuts, where there is a smaller group of my peers and we get handed out work to do and it is either done individually or as a group discussion where a tutor mediates and sometimes we get quizzes, motivating us to thoroughly go through the next chapter or we will fail the tut.In our practical’s things get practical haha ….excuse the pun, we get to dress up in our lab coats, go to a lab and use microscopes to observe different kinds of specimen, in our prac’s this is where I feel like a real scientist as all of the work we do is done to the TEE, as some would say perfectly!
I have met A LOT of nice people in the programme I mean in people I see myself growing old with as colleagues and friends. These people are there when we preparing for a HUUUUUUUUUGE test and you too confused to think clearly, you know they are just a text or phone call away to explain if they not as muffled as you are!

I have learnt about the most famous scientist to ever exist and I aspire to become like them as they are the science worlds role models. I have learnt about things that occur all around us in detail compared to the random walking past me observing the everyday phenomena with me making me firstly super cool, but more importantly making me more knowledgeable about things happening in nature and broadening my knowledge of the world to help other people in future! Soooo I am so for the lifescience 151 programme words cannot even come close to expressing how important to an aspiring scientist’s future!!
