Too happy till forgot to write bout this. Chem class today was funny. 1st of all, we were doing carbon chemistry and teacher was teaching bout Esters. Feels so wierd le. It's like teacher keep talking bout you but he's actually refering to some chain of carbons linked together :) Hehe N apparently how i was made was
carboxylic acid + alchohol -> ester + water
Haha ok being lame here. Anyways, remembering the times when i was just strolling around in St Co. and my form 5 fwens just keep saying "Esther you stink!" :P Haha well, i had a totally diff exeprience here with esters. Never smelt the actual chem but teacher came in with a box of wat seemed like coloured candies.
"Cool! Esters are so colourful!" i thought. The teacher passed a green tub down and he's like u can have one each. We were like huh? He sed they were apple flavoured jelly beans n we were still lik huh? "Eat them" he sed. I was sitting right in front. Took one biji reluctantly and just kept staring at it. Knowing well enough that we werent suppose to taste any chemicals and stuff in a lab and the next thing u know your teacher asks you to eat those jelly bean like things?! ****Poisonous**** was wat went through my mind.
"They taste quite good" he added. Ok..here goes nothing. Popped it in my mouth and surprisingly it was in fact jelly beans and summore tastes gud :P He passed down another tub dat was banana flavoured and we just munched on em as he taught us how ester plays its part in all these. Soo kewl! Can't believe we actually ate jelly beans in chem class :)
Anyhows, ester tastes nice to me and for now i shall stand firm and say "I don't stink!" :P
Signin off : Ester ester :)
