I have a candle burning throughout the work day, and my black coffee right next to it. They're of similar size. The number of times I've gone to drink from the candle, I tell ya.

Does this candle smell of coffee too?

Not this one (vanilla, I think), but I might have to look into that! 🕯️☕

If you did actually drink from the candle you could probably wax lyrical about the experience. :)

I really want to see if the cells I thawed Tuesday are okay, but I have to wait another 55mins to find out and now I can't focus at uni whilst waiting. Whoops. 😬

Needed to fix the lid of my fountain pen with super glue.

Its an odd shape lid thats not easy to glue together, but I decided it would be a great idea to try and fix it without asking for help.

I now have super glue on my fingers, the lid wasn't fixed properly and isn't sitting properly on the pen at all.

Surprisingly, doing candlestick rolls and reciting content for my SAC tomorrow is helping me! #this #is #odd

Went to the zoo and got to see the baby snow leopards. They are so cute.

Also spilt water on my laptop for the third time. It still works but I got a new one because I have an assignment due tomorrow and exams next week.

My physics class did a role play today for something fun (it was quite entertaining). It was called "Quantum Weirdness" and I played Werner Heisenberg :)
Did I learn anything about quantum mechanics? No. But I did learn that I am pretty terrible at German accents

This is especially entertaining to read since Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is in the vce physics curriculum but not in qce  (iirc it's also in hsc/nsw).
