Scientology
It is a little known fact that I have a fanciful interest in the wierd and wonderful alien craziness that is the Church of Scientology... and by an interest, I mean I would like to see it stopped.
This is why. It scares the life out of me to think this is even going on in the world!
In slightly happier news, my last exam is tomorrow! horray!

Man Talk
I'm going to make 'Man Talk' a weekly thing, so if you are male and you want to talk about things, write a comment and I will 'do some research' (ask my boyfriend).
Today, my boyfriend on Ikea:
"But, you see thats where you are wrong, you see Ikea as some sort of treat. But, to be honest, it boils down to this; I'm standing there whilst you are deciding about what lamp goes in what room and I'm there thinking that as long as its a lamp and it lights up I don't really care if its post-modern or too homey, and its so dry and I forgot to have a drink before we entered so I'm dehydrated and tired because we had to get up at six in the morning to 'avoid the morning rush' which we didn't because the drive up here was awful and trying to park in that effing car park was a mission in itself, and all I want to do is go home and play GTA 4 until the small hours. The amazing thing is, whilst i've thought about all of this, you still haven't decided which lamp you want, and its been fifteen minutes already. YES, that Billy bookcase would look good in the living room, so help me god let one of those Annikka wardrobes fall on me because all of this is wasting valuable time separating me from my playstation..."
As a side note, I have a sneaking suspicion this sort of table would make you boys come running...
(If any of you are regular readers, you might want to know that exam was a new level of horrendous. Will spend whole summer pouring over chemistry books whilst the tanned, intelligent masses barbecue, shop and drink and generally enjoy themselves...)

Guess The Obscure Refrence
Todays' obscure refrence comes from Family Guy:
Fairly easy to start us off! Guess to win... my respect!
"Oh no"
"Oh no!"
"OH NO!!"
*crash*
"OH YYYEAH!"
"Oh no!"
"OH NO!!"
*crash*
"OH YYYEAH!"
Fairly easy to start us off! Guess to win... my respect!
Tom Cruise is no longer sexy
Todays evidence that Tom Cruise is a blueberry short of a pie...Crazy jumping around on Oprah, crazy scientology rant, more crazy scientology rants, crazy auditioning for a crazy girlfriend, just crazy, crazy crazy!
Its so sad because once upon a time, before we found out he most probably bats for the other team, dear Tommy used to be hot.

The Noyes-Whitney Equation
... is dm/dt = k A (Co - C)
Yes, boys and girls its that time again, the shittiest time of the year. The sun may be shining, everyone is outside living, but its ten thirty in the morning and you are reading some boring nonsense about something you don't care about. The glowing feeling of an increasing intellect pales (quite literally, I look like i've crawled from under a rock) into comparison when seemingly the rest of the world is outdoors, enoying themselves and getting a tan. Bastards.
I'm not the best at revision, but I have my moments. Most of the time however, I am devising ingenious schemes to keep my mind mulling over anything else except what I should be doing. I started this blog, for instance. I have made foolish purchases on ebay. I have watched Beetlejuice three times. However, I have not done much work.
I am aware that I have started revising far too late to pass this year. I mean, I only need to get 40%, but its a hard 40%. And considering I went to less than 30% of the lectures... well, you get the picture. After slavishly travelling round london, begging various friends to take pity on the poor, skiving loser, I gained a full set of lecture notes with roughly a week left to revise. I hope it can be done, i'd rather not have to retake, but after failing to get into dental school (twice! bitter, much!) I have a rather gloomy outlook on all things examinable.
To my shock, have realised a couple of things:
> am actually interested in lecture material
> actually want to do more work than necessary
> might even use a couple of hours each day from my 'busy' summer schedule (drinking heavily) to persue the act of knowledge
> am terrified that this interest in my work means that adulthood has finally caught up with me
> actually glad that i did this stupid degree
And by the by (just to show off what i've learnt today)
1) electrolytes are substances that dissociate into ions in solutions and acquire the capacity to conduct electricity
2) addition of a hydroxyl group to a benzene ring means that it is more soluble, this increasing it's rate of absorption into the gut
3) paracellular diffusion occurs through the aqueous pathway, whereas transcellular diffusion occurs through cells
(and if you can guess my degree course from that, you get a prize)
