I don't care, I'll burn out anyhow

You know, I kind of like how it snowed. It made me feel like the end of the semester was near, and I think that mindset was helpful in these past couple days. And now that the snow is melting, and the leaves smell like fall, I feel renewed.

Also, I like being Scandinavian.

Also, I really like tutoring organic chemistry. It's so satisfying to understand a difficult subject and then to be able to make it clear for other people. Maybe someday I'll be an organic chemistry teacher. I would have lessons like "how to draw chair conformations 101," because no one really knows how to draw them...but I do! Ha! It's simple, you just draw two parallel lines at a slant and then connect the ends with slanted triangles...oh gosh...this is like that one time in Tempest rehearsal, when they were discussing Prospero using her telescope in the middle of the day, and I said, "Oh, it must be a radio telescope!"...but I said it really quietly and smiled a little nerdy smile to myself.

I'm glad tutoring gives me an outlet for these things.

You like being Scandinavian? What makes you say that? I've never really felt Scandinavian.

I think it's because I wish I had known mom's mom, so I like thinking that the Scandinavian part of our heritage brings me closer to her.
