Moving along…

Well I got an “A” on my project for ASL, we had to sign a children’s story as if we were telling it to a five year old, it was a lot of fun, I did “Three Little Pigs”. Now all I have left in that class is a final Thursday night. I plan to study hard for it right after my Biology Lab exam, and right before the class so retention is higher, although if I was spot tested at the moment I’m sure I’d do well. I have learned the info already but after my lab exam I’ll want a refresher, I’ll need it! I’ve completed 2 more class tests this week in General Chemistry and Organic Chemistry, both with 100%’s – I really LOVE chemistry, and my professor is awesome, all of my professors are actually, I’m going to dearly miss them!! I hope to have such wonderful professors when I move on to university. I have so much more testing still left to do with my Organic Lab final today, we get to figure out how to find the structure of a compound based upon the IR and HNMR graphs, yummy. It’s actually easy and fun – it’s like finding the missing pieces in a puzzle. I love puzzles! Then afterwards we’re supposed to watch the professor blow glass, that was my idea as last semester end we did some and he proved to be a glass-blowing expert, I said – wow can we do more and he promised at the end of this semester we will and he’s definitely a man of his word! This should be fun. In Organic Chemistry lab we’ve made nylon, rayon, acrylic, styrene, stilbene, methyl orange dye, distilled ethanol and so many other chemical compounds and such – it’s been fun! One of the more fun things is when you put two liquid chemicals in and they react instantaneously and create a solid; such as happened with nylon.
