tutoring fresher chem, (salut stephen bose)

a fresher im tutoring in chem: "im taking a triple major in mech engineering, pre-med and archeology"...im,kinda laughing at these new impervious heights

lets try and nail this unbalanced equation first.( its year 10 chemistry stuff)

i think she wants to be like me, further amusement, maybe its my cool new boots, but she's got no freaking idea what it takes to be me

the pains i go through to strech out a single degree out over an entire decade.

i mean i remember my first unbalanced equation and it was when i was eating tim tams with mon and bea in late prep and by the time ive made it to the back of the book, ive pulled out my first grey hair. how many millions and billions and trillions of tiny wars have a fought with myself, for myself, just to be myself.

and non of them matter as the one in the heat of this moment. so i start there with her, balance the oxygens first and then...and then...and then... (such impervious dreams) fight this one....then fight the next (such impervious wars)

and so on.
