You *know* you're a chemistry nerd when...
- when you believe everything around you somehow relates to chemistry [and share your thoughts with someone around you]. :D

When you incorporate Chemistry into English lessons.

For example, when my teacher was discussing 'The Great Gatsby' and talks about Gatbsy being a bootlegger, I started to work out equations for the hydrolsis of poly- and di- saccharides as well as for the fermentation of glucose. I then drew a diagram of of a distillation apparatus. I then suggested to the teacher that we should produce some ethanol as a class in our double lesson in order to gain some perspective on Gatsby.:grinshak:

Since I am also a physics and maths nerd (No I am not Asian, I'm Italian), I have also managed to incorporate those subjects into English lessons.

To prove that Sally Bowles from the movie Cabaret is a sl*t, I got up a derived an equation to prove that certain regions of her body could be considered a black hole and derived equations to prove that she had her own graviational pull and then did a ratio of her gravitational acceleration to the Earth's.

Good memories:ninja:

When you take a glass of water and think
'Has this been filtrated, flocculated and chlorinated? Omg I can see a particle with my microscope...I better run it through some microscopic membrance filters.'

Wow. So that's what it's like at the end of Yr 12.
When your teacher is late to class and you're playing a guessing game where you draw out hydrocarbons with people's names in your class attached as the branch.:eek:

Lol Chemistry is like your WORST nightmare in University.

Be happy that HSC Chemistry Syllabus has alot more theory (i.e. facts, etc) than calcuations.

You *know* you're a chemistry nerd when...you (i.e me) wish HSC Chemistry has more calculations. :)
