    But you cant drink what you make in the labs in school tho, because its pure! hence the no fun part

    I believe you once said you'd try anything once, Chick...

    Now, drink some damn ethanol!


  • Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 21,504 Mod ✭✭✭✭Agent Smith


    why not?

    excuse my lack of chemastry..... i did history instead


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 925 ✭✭✭David19


    If you drink pure alcohol you could die. Ethanol is poisonous. We drink poison! Still it has a great effect.

    I don't want to read every page of this thread again, but just to sum up: 4:00pm on Tuesday then? Is this right?

    Hmm, I don't really want to go around a load of people I don't know rying to find you lot and asking, "Are you from the internet?" First impressions and all that... To avoid attracting attention to myself in this way, I'll wear a bright red nametag with lights on it. Call me over if you see me.

    Hmm.. how bout outside, just there at the side when you come up from the stairs at the back.. There is an awning there if it's raining. My best memories of the pav are there..

    Outside would be best. There could be quite a lot of people at this. Will we even fit in the pav? There'll be other people there too. I presume a lot of people won't turn up though.

    Cheap Vodka = water + ethanol + glucouse. which is why cheap vodka is NOT suitable for vegetarians seeing as the gluocose is usually extracted from fat :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 59 ✭✭Haunter


    Whoops, meant MONDAY, not Tues.

    Still, I think we shoud all dress in red to recognise each other.

    Anyway, the only reaso I wanted to see it finalised was because I leave for the Halls tomorrow at about 10am so I won't be able to follow weekend developments methinks.

    Looks like it'll have to be the old, "Do I know you from the internet?" line.

    Were you another "Chemistry Live!" kid? God, I hated that book. That guy just waffled on and on and on...

    Oh, and Apex, I have made my decision re: the foulness that is known as chemistry. I'm not going to do it, I'm not going to put myself through that crap again. Nosiree bob..

    Yep I was. Never even opened the workbook tho lol. The guy who wrote it had a bit of a wierd sense of humour lol, in the chapter on alcohols it had stuff like "alcohol can seriously affect your senses, or can make you loose your inhibitions". Really!?

    Oh yeah i had that too. That was probably the best chemistry book out there. Everyone used it. And yeah chick I forgot about that workbook too lol. Anyway I had a good chemistry teacher so I did quite well in the end.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 461 ✭✭sleepingbeauty


    buttery
    yeah i agree, even though there was some strange things in it it was definitely one of the better books..although i may be saying that because i had a really good teacher too :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,095 ✭✭✭Chick


    buttery
    ditto on the nice teacher :D she was surprisingly cool for a chemistry teacher!
    Come to think of it dont think i ever used the revision book either, except the day of the mocks maybe :S in a blind panic wen i realised how little i actually knew


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,579 ✭✭✭Pet

    Well I had a fairly rubbish teacher for 5th year, so my 6th year teacher had about 75% of the course to get through, I can't really blame her for not going into enough detail or making it boring. She WAS very nice however.

    That book...it was good, but there was SOME amount of shyte in it. Reams and reams of waffle. Thank god I never have to go back to it again..
    Thats me out so lol

    Ooh, a fellow vegetarian??


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,095 ✭✭✭Chick

    Heh, yeah. When I was at my debs, my friends thought it would be funny to sneak some meat into my risotto, as if I ate one bite of it I would die or something. :D

    I don't take proper care of my nutrition though, I don't get half enough protein. :confused: If I go back to athletics I'll probably have to go back to meat too I spose.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,095 ✭✭✭Chick

    yeak kinda worried bout my debs. here you go, here's a plate of lettuce for you :S.

    If you dont eat meat ur supposed to take iron and protein -apparently! youd think id know more after takin vitamins n ****e for the past 18 years wouldnt ya ;)

    It depends on the hotel I suppose. You want to make sure they know beforehand so they can cater for you. but there's probably other vegetarians in your year..

    I do take vitamin pills but not enough protein.

    Meh. :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,095 ✭✭✭Chick

    Yeah we had to order meals ages ago, so they do know. theres only me and one other girl out of like 100 people!
    The hotel seems really nice from what ive seen anyway. its in bloody newgrange tho... bit of a trek!
