I return from vacation!

Where I worked four to six hours in the Phoenix heat, and spent another hour or two a day studying. Sometimes I studied at the same time as I worked, though, so there was kind of an overlap.

Vacation is awesome.

I should talk about the resort, though! I have no idea whereabouts in the Valley it was, but we spent all the time we weren't working lying by the pool and drinking beer. It also had this nifty ride called the Lazy River, which is a giant pool built in the shape of a circular creek, and you get to lie around in inner tubes and just ... float around it.

We spent most of the time doing that, really.

Of course, the heat, the alcohol and the chemistry stuff I was trying to memorize all conspired to rot my brain, leading me to shed my inner tube and run around the pool shrieking, "I am a lone proton! I have lost my electron! I am a hydrogen ion, and I am what makes acids acidic, fear me! Ahahahahahahaha!" And then attacking people.

Yeah.

EDIT: I could totally believe that you are what makes acids acidic.

I've done that 'studying while supposed to work' bit. Didn't remember anything about either thing, lol.

Well, I work for my dad, and he cares less about appearances than most jobs. So if there's honestly nothing for me to do, he doesn't care what I do. Usually I sleep, but ... I was trying to be responsible. I think I learned, uh, stuff!

[elaine-miles.livejournal.com]

That's gotta be pretty cool though, not having to worry about appearances. What are you attempting to learn about anyway? ...just stuff? Or is it like really awesome stuff?!

Chemistry! Even if it's a Biology class. Chemistry as it applies to Biology, I suppose!

[elaine-miles.livejournal.com]

...so basically two classes for the price of one? Sweet. I'm rather fond of Biology myself, Chemistry not so much. Chemistry hates me. ;-;

Lazy Rivers are awesome. Did you try and go against the current?

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

We ran the whole thing backwards! A bunch of kids saw us and decided to use our tactics to annoy everyone in the pool!

[immelmanturn.livejournal.com]

Excellent. FIGHT THE SYSTEM. DON'T LET THE MAN TELL YOU WHICH DIRECTION TO FLOAT.
