yes, another chapter in my life albeit it is a boring one. Lets see, what has hapenned recently? Hmm well my knee isn't getting much better but maybe eventually it will. I played Dungeons and Dragons on sunday. It really is a fun game and i enjoy it. Some one else at schenely plays with me, but i will not release his/her name in case he/she perfers anonymity.
Christmas is coming, and happy Chanukah to all you jews ( or as carl call you jewish pricks) carl is also sure that i am a jew though i have repeatedly told him that im not, but i have given up all together.
Im going to boston for xmas with my dad/step-mom/half-siblings. Apparently since the kids are being raised jewish they are trying to downplay christmas (good luck!!!)
I have a pitt chem lab tomorrow so hope fully it wont now TOO much. Chemistry is fun and i pity those of you who have biology just because chemistry was ruined for them by that Mr. Zanetti character. I truly believe that some people would excell at chemistry, but oh well.
And that opens another can of worms (albeit sweet tasty worms) In my chem class NO ONE will answer any questions NOR volunteer to put an answer on the board. Iam inevitably the one that ends up answering all the questions (correctly i might add). I am tempted to spend one whole period not volunteering for anything and then at the end of clas jumping up and screaming "All you weaklings, bow down before my superior chemincal might."
Im rambling, oh well i do that sometimes. All right guys, ill see you all later.

Chemistry lesson of the day: Nomenclature of Alkanes
Alkanes are classified as saturated hydrocarbons. There molecular formula can be expressed as the function Cn H2n+2 (for example C6H14) they are anmed with the following prefixes according to the number of carbon atoms int heir molecular formula (see my AIM profile for an example of a complex hydrocarbon name)
1-methane
2-ethane
3-Propane
4-butane
5-pentane
6-hex
7-hept
8-oct
9-non
example C6H14 is hexane
