I didnt know how bad things could get with a spoiled pippette feeder(or whatever it is). Its not like im too afraid to get a new one or what, BUT you know me, i really cant be bothered with these trivial things. Usual me(what happened during prac today) - "EH, why weird weird one.. how come the damn thing keep dripping? aiyah, nevermind one lah. wont have much difference between one drop and two drops. at the most later my calculation change a bit loh!" For the people who knows what Titration is, one drop does make a difference. But again, being the weitong i am, im really not meticulous about such things.

After about the fifth or sixth attempt(i recorded only two, to make me look less stupid to the marker, but in the end it only made matters worse.)
MY first attempt: 19.20( i amended it to 19.10)
2nd: 18.60 (huh? thats too far off.)
3rd: 19.10 ( yah.. must be 19+ already. try again.)
4th: - (oh shit. i ran the tap down to 19.00 but the contents in the conical flask all turn ORANGE. holy shit. must be some parallex error or contamination. AGAIN)
5th: - (WTF? ORANGE again? damn. freak. everyone started salt analysis long ago already. argh. heck it lah. 19.10 then 19.10 LAH)

and at the end of the calculation... for the mole ratio, i got something like 2.5/1. Since i was so desperate to move on to the next question, i hastily round it down to 2/1(which is wrong. i should've x2 so that it becomes 5/2)

And after the exams, all my friends' results were 18.60 or 18.70(LOOK AT MY 2ND ATTEMPT!) %&#$^%&()&^%$#$*& THATS a good 12 marks. SO PEOPLE, reminder: PLS BE VERY VERY METICULOUS ABOUT MINOR DETAILS BECAUSE IT CAN CAUSE YOU DO FLUNK YOUR PRACTICALS.
