That's not "Fair"

Okay so you know all of those crazy things your parents said when you were young and swore you would never say to your kids? Well I am way past that I have had kids long enough that I have probably exhausted the list of things I thought I would never say to my kids. Many of these things are very familiar and you hear them all the time. Things such as "if you don't stop crying i will give you something to cry about" (which i do not say) or "don't make me pull this car over", or how about "clean up this pig sty" "close the door. were you born in a barn" you get it..
So one of those things I didn't necessarily vow to never say, but rather I just thought it was kind of dumb whenever my mom would say is....... kids says "that's not fair" and mom says "no the Fair is in August" ha ha really funny huh? Yeah I didn't think so. Well I do say this sometimes even though I still think it is kind of dumb. I think that it is like saying to your kid you are being ridiculous of course it is not fair. Life isn't fair. Anyone who lives past one year should be able to realize this.
So tonight our whole family went to Pizza Hut. There was this family sitting behind us and one of the kids said something wasn't fair and her Aunt said "I thought the fair was in August. Didn't we go to the fair together in August?" Well I heard it and Adam said to me "Did you just hear that?" right when I was like hmm someone else actually says this to kids. I immediately thought how weird it was to hear someone else say this and I also thought "I like this person they must have a level head on their shoulders." Hee hee

Finally Friday

This week I had tests in all of my classes. On tuesday I had a Chemistry test, and today I had two biology tests. My biology classes are one right after the other, so obviously I took two tests in a row. This was sooo much fun. Why does it seem like professors scheme together to bunch up tests all in the same week? I am pretty sure it is some kind of conspiracy to see how many students they can get to break down. Let me just say that taking two biology tests in a row is no fun at all. I am pretty sure that my head came as close to exploding as it has ever been. Why do tests have to be so much pressure?
So now I have a weekend with very little to study. Yeah!!
Yeah for Friday. Yeah for the weekend.

MMMM Apple Gum

I got this new gum yesterday. I was checking out at the store and I saw this gum by trident with layers. It is green apple and pineapple flavored. I love green apple flavored things so I thought I would give it a try. I decided to try some right away when I got to the car. I popped it in my mouth and WOW it was soooo good. This gum is sweet and juicy and just down right yummy. As I was chewing it I was thinking that I wished it was actually food because I would just like to eat it. I can without a doubt say that this is the best gum I have ever had. I know, Iknow anyone reading this surely will think I am crazy. But I say if you like green apple you will not be disappointed.

blogging my day

Okay so I haven't been able to get on here to blog as often as I was intending. My sister says that blogging just isn't for me. So I am sitting here blogging instead of studying for my two biology tests that I have coming up on Friday.
You know I just don't really ever know quite what to write so I guess I will just write about my day and if something is interesting obviously I will add that in.
I had my first Chemistry test today and I think I did okay. I think it is the best test Ihave taken in Chemistry for a very long time. My prof. likes to give us tests on lab days so I also had lab. We reacted sodium metal with different alcohols. Once we were done with that it was time to dispose of the sodium and alcohol. My professor told my lab partner to take the reacted sodium metal and put it in some water to get rid of any tiny little bit of sodium that may be still unreacted. So she did a little hesitantly. At first there was nothing so I went over to look and all of a sudden there was a pop and some steam shot up out of the beaker. It made me jump because we had been told what could happen if you were to add too much of the sodium metal to water at a time. Anyway I turned around to empty a couple of test tubes into the hazardous waste bucket and about 3 seconds later the beaker was on fire. There was a flame filling the width of the beaker and going a couple of inches above the top of the beaker. This was not supposed to happen although it is what can happen. I guess that there was more of that sodium metal in there than our professor thought. It was pretty cool.
It is kind of funny because I was just thinking earlier in the lab period that no one has ever really started anything on fire or made anything explode. And then it happened right in my very own group. So that was my exciting moment for the day.
