Anyway, I was planning to do some studying today, but I was faced with an empty Group VII lecture note. I am really starting to dislike these notes that leaves blanks all over the place to punish those that do not stay awake during lectures. It is just not fair. Initially, I could fill in the blanks by reading the next few lines of the paragraph. Then as I moved on, I needed to use a little of my Chemistry knowledge to deduce the correct words for the blanks. Finally, it came to the point where I could no longer make up the sentences because the blanks were so frequent.

"F2 reacts with ___________________ water ______________________"

Huh? Let's see... F2 reacts with liquid water quickly? F2 reacts with boiling water but not cold water? F2 reacts with cold water to form HF? The possibilities are endless! So I did what any sane person would do and took a nap from this madness. (If you do know what goes into the blanks, please tell me.)

When I woke up, I decided that it was a good idea to bring a glass of yogurt drink out of the house while grabbing some dinner. Of course, I eventually finished my drink and was left looking like an idiot carrying an empty glass around. I would like to think that I did not already look foolish when I still had some drink left in my glass, but I might be wrong about that.
