science is cruel!


i thought i was being smart to take up pharmacy and just deal with chemistry n drugs. But i was so wrong! i had to dissect a frog for cardiovascular system lab last week. Back in secondary school, there was once when we had to bring our own frog to dissect. I brought my frog n i released the frog in the school pond. haha. I just cant stand the fact of killing such poor innocent creatures despite how ugly they look. lol. for honestly nothing. Apparently we had to observe the effects if certain drugs on the heart. Fine. we do learn something but is it necessary to kill so many? n cant they make it a less painful death for the poor frogs?


the poor frog. :( being pitt as they call it. they use some sort of wire rod to poke the frog in the head while it struggles n fight for its poor life. The frog would not die but it will be brain dead i guess. we almost had to do that on our own. I honestly dont think i could have done that. haha i think i would have let it go n say the frog slipped off my hand.lol. thank god the lab assistant helped us. i wonder how many animals have they killed.i dont know how they can do it like as though they are cutting a piece of paper. The lab atmosphere was just loud with loads of girls shrieking n screaming. Even the guys were shrieking k? im not joking. haha.bunch of cowards.


i cant believe i did that!!



the frog's heart. we had to hang to the 'thing' which i forgot what u call it.lol. its connected to the computer where u can read the heart rate after administering different types of drugs on the heart.


froggy with the brush.lol. this frog was a survivor Electrical stimulation on the frog;s heart hanged on the longest. but still it died after a long

battle.

POOR FROGGIES! We had to be cruel in order to be kind. According to my lecturer, it will help us save lives in future so killing the frog is not cruel! WELL I STILL THINK SO!! roar!
