Sammy gladly went back to work on her lab report if for no other reason than to help kill the time.  Next period she could go check on the samples before class, but it would be the end of the day before she actually got to test the results.  The anticipation was killer, and she was not sure she could contain herself excitement.  It was going to be worse now that that she had finished filling out as much of the report as she could without the data. Placing her hand over the terminal, she saved the file to the chip before deleting from the console. It was a tad bit paranoid on her part, but it did not hurt anything so she did not think it mattered. <br/><br/>The bell rang soon after that, and Sammy basically ran out the door. Rushing down the semi crowded hallways, she slid around the other students trying to reach the stairs. The stairs themselves were much more crowded, and she had to slow down a walk. Getting to the third floor, she moved quickly to the private studies lab. Brushing her wrist over the thermal, she slide in and went about checking the samples.  Taking out some food, she fed the two lab rats that were her living samples. Despite it being slightly against safety guidelines, she could not help but pet the rats a bit.  It took her a few seconds to look over the bacteria samples to confirm they were still alive.  Then she was out the door and heading for her next class. <br/><br/>It had taken her only taken about 4 of the ten minutes between classes to do the checks and she still had 4 minutes to get to class.  It was more crowded now, and she was forced to go slower. Her mind had already wandered back to her experiment though and she was on auto-pilot as she navigated the halls.</div></blockquote>
