Feels good to be wrong

I too was only taught the linear way of exploring science and it was never too fun for me. I found myself going into lab and writing a hypothesis that I knew was expected just for the grade and then doing the experiment and learning nothing. It wasn't until first semester my freshman year at Bryn Mawr that I was able to really explore science and have fun. That feeling occurred the first time in Bio 103 lab when I proposed a hypothesis then after doing all the summaries of observations proved it wrong. I actually smiled.

I agree loopy science does offer a better way to approach science and construct ideas.
