this helped me to go through the drudging process of recrystallization. It was wort it though when I actually formed my first crystals. WOOT!

I am currently doing BSc Chemistry Year 1 Trimester 2. Exam tension has already been felt by my friends and I. It seems just yesterday that i was carefree and was never bothered with the trappings of life.how is it that students such as I get stuck with mundane things such as studying for the sake of joining the rat race and not for pleasure. Why is it that some people can't study because of financial problems whereas the fools have too much that they are forced to study by the "seniors" of the working world. Just a thought!...
