Recap: Abbreviations

Alas, why is it such a long word?

Today is my forth day at Davis and already people are asking me for directions to places. On my way to breakfast I was waylaid and asked where the chemistry building was and so I gave directions, wondering if the guys who were asking knew that I barely memorized the place just last night, because I have a chem placement test there this afternoon. And yes I do, have a chem placement test today, I mean. I am reviewing and remembering the good 'o times I've had with dimensional analysis (was that was it was called?), sig figs, and the recital of 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2...et cetera. Which reminds me, I miss the old chem room, the now-calculus room. There was so much history in there, though I daresay the new chem room is picking up a few stories of its own. I wonder how long it will be before the room picks up enough 'battle scars' for Ms. Uji to start giving lectures about. Or has that happened already?

Weather at Davis is very interesting. It was sunny and it rained for five minutes and then we had a thunderstorm, except I couldn't for the life of me say whether it actually rained or not, but the lightning display was there. The weather was summer-ish through it all, and I believe the temperature will go up tomorrow.

Loads of meetings yesterday, and then today I have nothing for schedule except the placement test. So much for evening out the schedule. So much for the schedule. So much for everything, and thanks for all the fish.

Yes, I'm procrastinating from further studies in chemistry, and I will stop procrastinating now.

Meanwhile, I remain, yours truly, the only girl you know who can injure herself by eating an apple.

Heh, I'm proud to say that I looked for and found all my classes/buildings on Welcome Day and will not need (unless I just cursed myself by saying this) directions.

Ok, the apple thing.. The only way of hurting yourself is choking on it, but that could happen to anyone. What happened with you?
