Some reflections 2020

 2020 The Quarantine Year

Howdy everyone! I really hope you're doing great. I found it a little bit hard to write about something everyone else would too. But in the end I put myself to the task. My 2020 like for many of you has had some upsidedowns. Something I can really emphazise on is the fact that being locked down has made me miss my friends and the things I used to do. From going to the university every day to just going out with my friends or family. However, I've been able to strengthen the bonds I have with my family and now I have a better understanding of they are, why they behave the way they do, etc. Also, I'm getting to know better someone I met last year on a concert hahahah uwu. I still don't like online classes :c I miss my classmates and even my teachers. I miss all the things we used to do in the labs, the experiments we would run or the questions we could make. I miss the "our old lifestyle" and not being so out of everything. I kinda feel like an outcast. But that's exaggerating a little bit xd. Aside from that it's been a good year, kind of. As I said before, there's been so much so far, and even if it's hard or weird for all of us, I really hope this lockdown will end and we'll get back stronger than ever to enjoy all those little things that were taken from us. Good things will continue to get better and all the bad ones will perish.

That's about it. unu

The music in my life

   I tend to listen to heavy music such as metal, deathcore, metalcore, nu metal, hxc and post hardcore. It's not an inherited taste since my parents don't listen to that kind of stuff. All began with my aunt and her horror movies. The soundtracks on those movies used to be very heavy and metal-like, so I started liking that style. 

  Then there was Youtube a platform we all know there you could watch your favorite artist playing music, their music videos and even some lyric videos there I discovered Marilyn Manson, Slipknot, Evanescence and others. Also, around the same time, I used to watch MTV and guess what music genre was one of the most popular? Metal and post hardcore, of course.Now if u ask me, I listen to whole lot of music and styles. I still listen to metal but also I listen Trap, for instance,I listen to Bad Bunny. Music has always been something important in my life. It kinda defines me, I find it easy to express myself through it and subsequently helps to calm my nerves and even to focus on what I have to do. I've listened to music since I was very little and I will continue to do so.That's pretty much it  ❤❤❤

Inorganic Chemistry (My favorite class):

Greetings mates! I hope you’re doing great. I’m not sure if all of the college carreers here in the inversity have to go through this or not. I’m pretty sure most of us know about inorganic chemistry. It is the chemistry that studies al lof the elements that are not organic, which are the ones that don’t have a carbon-hydrigen bond. In my personal experience, it is been dificult to learn this semester due to the online classes. But I think the way the teachers have done their classes is the right one. We saw the groups of the periodic table in order from IA to VIIIA, analizing the periodic properties, diagonal relationship between them, and how you can get the pure element out of them, generally. Oh, and then after seeing each group we had to do the correspondent seminary. To be honest, I didn’t know much about chemistry when I started studying this career. But this semester I got the chance to know more about it by having this class and I love it. Because i find it to be really interesting, the fact that we learn about the elements in a deeper way and it has also made me understand more about the periodic table. Which I think is perfect, because it shows in a clear way the tendencies that are between the elements. Thanks to inorganic chemistry, we got to see a lot of compounds! And if you haven’t quite had the hang of what we studied in general chemistry 2, you’ll find this course hard. To summarize, it’s a loto f theory. As a chemist myself, I Will continue to travel in this train called Inorganic Chemistry 1.

That’d be all pals, if someone gets to read this, let me know, whats your favorite class?

Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeléiev

   Greatings mates! I'm gonna talk about someone who needs no introduction, someone who brought something of great importance to chemistry, Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeléiev. He was a well known Russian chemist, who formulated the first periodic law of elements and he also made a graphic representation of those elements (the ones discover to that day ) this was the base for the periodic table we know today.
   I admire Dmitri because he was able to strive even in times of conflict for Russia. He even faced other scientists of the time who didn't believe in what Dmitri stated. Actually, I find It hard to believe that he didn't win a nobel prize since I consider the periodic table a wonderful creation.
  The periodic table makes it easier to understand and learn about the elements since it organizes and categories the elements in an optimized ways by arranging all of the chemical elements in an informative array. Elements are arranged from left to right and top to bottom in order of increasing atomic number. Order generally coincides with increasing atomic mass. The rows are called periods, Dmitri was also able to find a way to produce alcohol without water. Which was a magnificent discovery for the time since it helped to develop the Vodka industry in the great Russian empire, you can know more about him by clicling any of  the links below.
