this town it feels like a headache
I got an 18 on last week's orgo quiz, partly because I didn't know a few answers and partly because, uh, I'm a dumbass. (Two legit mistakes. One instance where I only gave carbon three bonds, although reassuringly two other people in my class forgot the exact same hydrogen. One instance where instead of adding water across a double bond (as an alcohol and a hydrogen) I, uh. Added two alcohols.)
And then we learned that there are people doing things to carbon that make it planar even when it's tetracoordinated, which, ahahahaha that's actually kind of ridiculous and amazing, not gonna lie.
Unfortunate discovery of the day: our pledge meetings are 9:30 to 10:30, Tuesday nights (at least they are this term). Normally that would be fine, but my biochem group is meeting tomorrow night to see if we can't get part two of the project finished. Theoretically we should be able to do it before I have to leave -- we have a little more than half of it done already, we just haven't printed anything off yet or anything. Just. :|
I only managed to fall asleep at like 3:30 this morning, but I was in a perfectly good mood until like 5:30, at which point I suppose I crashed, ugh. I was planning on writing some more of this week's IQP stuff today, too, cos that way I'll have Wednesday and Thursday to study for the orgo test on Friday. Maybe I'll do it after I get back from volleyball tomorrow, and then dinner, biochem, pledge meeting. I miss having time off on Wednesdays.
