Friday: Russian oral.
Nice, dude. Russian chicks are hot.
I'm all for turning "blazer" into an adjective.I'm close to stop calling people "butthurt" and just start calling them "blazers." They're getting so out of hand with their emotions.
ok, back to chemistry
Throw in a second (if necessary).The Spurs should trade Tim Duncan for Sergio Rodriguez and Joel Pryzbrilla.
"Drug dependence and associated risks among female street-based sex workers in the greater Sydney area, Australia."Does anyone know where I can find an article that talks about prostitution leading to drug abuse?
I can't find jack on google.
"Drug dependence and associated risks among female street-based sex workers in the greater Sydney area, Australia."
I found it on UofT's journal database. If you want, I can email it to you.

HUGE epic win
So hour 4 out of 6 for my finals today began my orgo test. After going through two pages of nomenclature I get to a mechanism problem, where you are given the products, solvent, and reactant of a reaction and have to show how it happens. This is a bit harder than it might seem, because you have to follow the problem on the electron level, and have to use arrows to show how they move about, and how the compounds change to get to some final product you have to figure out. Problem: I have no idea what the fuck I'm looking it. While the final products share the general cyclohexane structure, the hydrocarbon chains are way different, and what's worse: there are alkenes in different parts of the compound! Great, I have to take one compound and get two completely different things, and the substrates are really foreign. Our teacher likes to use his own shorthand, so I'm looking at what I think is methoxy but...yikes...This was not one of the 30 reactions I studied for the final. After staring at this thing for like 20 minutes I give up and move on to the rest of the exam, I'll come back later.
Well this test was the hardest sonovabitch I've ever taken in my life. It made you submit to some form of helplessness, and yet while you recognized you were at it's mercy it provided enough stimulation to keep the faith. Ridiculously hard...I think 1/4 of the class didn't finish. I barely got to the end in time: I had taken 2 hours and I had 15 minutes left. Shit. I still had that mechanism problem to figure out, and not answering it or throwing some BS together would knock off 20% points from my grade. Doo doo.
Well, boom. I see that the solvent is protic and a weak nucleophile: I'll try a unimolecular elimination reaction. Well after I form an alkene, mess around with resonance contributors, and even bust out a 1,2 methyl shift...I nailed it. Huge win, and a great way to end the semester. I went to a 6 hour review session that started at 8am yesterday, pulled an all nighter, and even crammed for 3 hours in between finals. Looks like it paid off.
