Of fats, carbohydrates, proteins and DNA...

Did you know...

... that most canned/packed meat with preservatives which make the meat red are carcinogenic?
... that the name Palmolive came from palmitic acid and olive oil which are ingredients of the soap?
... that perfumes are esters that upon hydrolysis can turn back into carboxylic acids, that makes you smell sour when you sweat after putting your perfume?
... that DNA primary bonds are extremely strong?

A little bit of trivia goes a long way.

My summer classes have ended. I know that I passed the lab part, I'm not so sure about the lec part. It's all too confusing. How should I know how to differentiate 1-Pentyne from 2-Pentyne? It boggles the mind. >_< (It's one of the questions in the finals, and until now I can't answer it.)

Daddy is coming home in a few days. I hope he comes back safely.

My cousin's kids are driving me nuts. Playing with them drains all my energy. ^^; But I love them to bits! <3

Finally watched Da Vinci Code. It was basically okay. I found a few missing details from the book but it's fine without them.

Whee~! This post is full of randomness... lol! XD

Rain or shine!

I had a fabulous time at Subic last weekend. Even though typhoon Caloy was near, it didn't stop us from having fun! :) The rooms were very big. I suddenly felt like I was in a hotel of some sort. Loved the queen sized beds! Soooo comfy~! :D

The beach was full of starfishes. Eek! I didn't like stepping on them... *shivers* We swimming in the middle of the storm, hehe... It was fun! But I felt cold after a few hours... probably from the harsh winds. ^^;

The food was great! Kuya Frans gave us a feast... I happily ate until I was so full. :9

I sang a lot of songs on (and off) the Magic Sing. I sang until my voice broke and slowly faded. I sang until my voice was gone. Lol. I was so tired after that, I immediately fell asleep... ^^;;

We went to Grotto and Dutyfree the next day. Waahh! I bought so many chocolates, but my nephew and niece ate them. T_T Oh well... I'll buy more chocolates next time. ;)

Almost finished with summer! I had a quiz last Monday and Tuesday, final lab exam last Wednesday and second long exam yesterday. I'm not sure how well I fared, considering I didn't review. (Yeah.. I was too distracted when I got home... ^^;)

Pics are here! :)
