Phys prof hasn't sent my LOR yet... argh. He hasn't had time and wants to be sure i'm "academically capable". He's about to grade our midterms, and he said if I did fine on it (since I was like, the only person in the class who didn't get to work with everyone else cause I finished too early) by myself, he'd definitely send a very high recommendation.

*Crossing fingers* I hope it was ok...

So i have to ask, are you always hungry when you leave lab? Many people I know were. My husband liked to have meat. :laugh:

gross............ but so very true.

not sure if its the pec muscles that look like flank steak or the formalin messing with your brain and causing hunger but most people i knew were just starving after walking out of lab

MAN!!!! Landlord just came by with a $75 rent increase notice starting January 1st!:thumbdown: And then he's like, "I haven't increased rent since I don't know when!" I was like, uh, LAST WINTER? To be fair, last increase was only $15, so no big deal. But $75 is tangible! This apartment is still fairly priced, I don't think $675 is too much given that all utilities except internet are included, but blaaaah.:thumbdown:

So I was doing a chem experiment dealing with flame tests.. and my burner fuel almost blew up!!! :eek::eek::scared::scared:

Yeah, there was totally a small explosion in my kitchen. EEEK. Thankfully, flame test results are alll over the internet, so I can get the right colors, except for my unknown. That was when the explosion took place, so I wasn't so much paying attention to the color. Tried to retest through my lighter, but couldn't come up with anything tangible.. so I stuck with white/blue (lead).

Glad that one is over. I have one more experiment of which I need the burner fuel, so I suppose I'm going to need to invest in some more, or get my dad to check this one. *phew* Still shaken up a bit.

Think I'm becoming lactose intolerant. The last 2 times I've had ice cream I've gotten incredibly sick.

However, I eat cereal all the time (I don't usually drink the milk, just what gets in the cereal) and am a huge fan of cheeses and neither of those seem to bother me.

Is it possible that i'm still lactose intolerant?

I know, but don't forget where I live.:laugh: Your rent is higher, but so are your wages/salaries..a friend was an admin assistant in NYC and she made $3500...here $2000 would be a VERY good salary for an admin assistant, and $1500 is the standard.

I think it's pretty normal. I can also eat cheese and have cereal with milk w/o consequences, but if I eat a lot of ice cream, it makes me uncomfortable, too.

So far, yes. I'm not sure why. It might be a combination of rigor of the 4-hr lab and the lateness of the day, but what's odd is that I find it okay to eat something like a chicken leg after lab. :laugh:
