(no subject)

So I was tutoring a girl in chemistry at work the other day and found that I was absolutely, positively stumped as to how to approach the problem we were working on. The tutoring that I most often do these days is for students who are English-as-a-second-language speakers, which definitely raises the difficulty level for me. Not only that, but chemistry often involves working through word problems (never my favorite thing to do, which is probably why I dreaded the chem courses I took in college). So basically, by the end of class, I felt pretty useless and was only able to help out a little bit. I need to get my brain back in gear, apparently. A year out of college and I'm just coasting, man.

By third period, though, my spirits were lifted when one of the girls I sometimes tutor brought in more Russian candy. Hokey toot, I obviously can't read Russian (and therefore have no idea what's in it), but that is some good stuff - whatever it is. :^D

Yeah, that was random.
