My friend and I back in about 8th grade, had to dissect eyeballs in science. We decided to do a cataract transplant intead of what we were supposed to be doing which was God knows what as we never paid attention in class.

I dissected a cow's eye in third grade. My partner wouldn't stop crying so I had to do the entire thing. I think it's a family thing because when her brother had to do it, he threw up. Anyway, I sliced my finger open with the scapel and needless to say, it wasn't that fun....
