I love how the actors can't draw benzene rings. From what I've seen, they use a lot of spectroscopy on the show. I felt like a dork when I noticed the O-H stretch on one of the IR graphs they displayed.

Now I feel even dorkier since I'm discussing the chemistry used on a tv show. Summer can't come soon enough!

Around 8:30 PM, I was driving back home from school. While I was passing Rita's, I saw this huge line that was starting to wrap around the store. All I can say is why? I understand that it's free since it's the first day of spring, but today was cold! The Italian ice only costs around $1.50. Is it worth waiting on a long line in the cold ( Read more... )

The snow on Valentine's was such a waste! None of my classes were canceled and driving on 18 was something I do not want to repeat. They didn't plow any of the snow (and I left home at 12:30 PM) so there were no visible lanes! Only pseudo lanes of people following on another. College Ave was not much better, and I still had my Chinese quiz and Orgo ( Read more... )

Dear God, I think my brain has atrophied over the break. I've been acting like a flake since the start of this new semester. It's only been two days! Yesterday I spaced out while driving, and ended up having to make a 10 minute detour back onto Ryders Lane to get to school. Today I thought I had microbio so I arrived to school at 8:30 AM for no ( Read more... )

Came back from the perfume kiosk, and felt like such a con. Customers would ask me what was a good scent. I would always refer to D&G Light Blue or some sort of Burberry since those were the only ones I knew of. I'm not the best person to ask since I'm not into perfume. I figured though that if they're so popular, it must be good right ( Read more... )

I don't know how I'm going to survive the next two weeks. I only have one reading day before finals start. I have classes up until then. My organic chem final is after my one and only free day, and my anthropology paper is due at the same time! My Chinese exam covers everything that we learned this semester, not the usually from only the midterm on ( Read more... )

I now have this sizable dent on the side of my car. Not from any accident, it's from my mom accidentally hitting my parked car while going into the driveway. My car still works fine so it doesn't bother me. I do feel a bit sorry for my poor beat up Honda Accord. So very old...I mean the car alarm didn't even trigger when it was hit ( Read more... )

I think the best part of the Rutgers-Louisville home game was when the students accidentally stormed the field 2 seconds early. It's crazy how fast they managed to get off when they noticed their error. Of course beating a No. 3 nationally ranked team is pretty awesome too ( Read more... )

Oh my gosh, I think I just figured how to make next semester's schedule work! Now I just have to see if I can actually register for the classes I want next Thursday!

Today I was swamped with imagery on how abortions are evil. Oh yeah there was something about "God," "salvation," and you know words synonymous with that. The abortion protesters were everywhere. I honestly wouldn't have cared if it wasn't for the fact that they were making their children hand out fliers. Said fliers had graphic images of aborted ( Read more... )
