the pace picked up, today.

it is good, i think. when things move slower... my mind makes busy-work for itself. which does it no good. when things move faster... my mind is occupied and i find peace in knowing what i've got to be getting on with and mastery in getting it done.

starting to acquire enough chemistry vocabulary to do simple reactions... he's even moving through the pace faster in class... i will need to hunt out those lecture notes to make sure i'm getting the formula down correctly... a bit tricky at present because i'm not quite up to speed on the meanings, yet, so things are still looking a bit math-sy to me and copying a... bit map... is always a bit dodgey. especially since i'm trying to listen to his explanation at the same time...

it makes me laugh how lecturers do that. give us stuff to copy, expect us to parse / understand what we are copying, and listen to them prattle on about something a little different... all at the same time. uh huh.

a couple people walked out. and a few other people started playing with their phones (guess that means they probably won't be back). last day to drop was ... three days ago. hur.

i think onto orbital stuff now, which i have some background in, which is good. it will take some work to remember these reactions, i think...

i quite like this, though... and it is... magic, really. my friend said that... 'we (as in scientists) are the modern day magicians'. some of the stuff... adding two liquids and getting a solid etc... does look magical. i usually like potions in rpg's... chemistry... f*ck yeah.
