Number 2.

I think that it is absolutely necessary to research about random questions because in turn it will result in many different, important discoveries. It definitely has a benefit. The benefit comes from all the invention and discoveries that have happened from random question. Some may have been for fun but there was a serious outcome that benefits us all today. I think the scientist who spend much of their lives pursuing these questions knew that there could be a serious outcome and also i think they knew that it would be a lot of fun to experiment with random things. They may have thought they were coming up with a cure for something or maybe they thought that they were going to make an explosion with two completely safe chemicals? Who knows but what these scientists figured out definitely was worth it.
I also think that experimenting "cool" things will make these scientist learn a lot more about whatever they are working with which makes them gain knowledge. Just having this certain knowledge makes it worth the time and money. The money to many of these scientists is not a factor becuase when they learn something "cool" or interesting its fun to share to others. It can also lead to a discovery that could get them a lot of money. SO in conclusion i believe that researching "cool" questions is a very useful task.

I commented on Ashley's, Corinne's, and Josh's blogs.

Honors Chemistry 5

Being part of this Honors Chemistry class has really helped me learn a lot more. It has opened up my mind to many different ways of studying and learning, etc. I really enjoy having a small class because it is easier to have one on one teaching and attention if you do not understand a concept. I think it would be completely different if there were more people in our class because I feel that there would be a lot more chaos in lab and when teaching. I do think that everyone contributes when it comes to learning in our class. I feel as if everyone in the class is very unique and adds to the classes personality. I think our Chemistry class is extremely fun and I love doing labs. All for now - over and out!

my first snow fall

snow fall, oh snow fall. what a wonderful thing. it can give you a delay from school or even the unthinkable, a day off. my first snowfall of the year was yesterday. Unfortunately there was school and there was no delay. just another wonderful 8 am start of the day. The snow was a lot more than i thought. it was more than an inch but not to much. on my ride home yesterday my mom and i almost got stuck going up a hill and there was a car that was sliding back down but still it was snowing so everything was okay!
