Day #7: Partnerships and Protons

Well I was in a much better mood today! Huzzah!

Today, I learned...
  1. ... about partnerships and business franchises in economics. Then I learned that I can get my section reviews done pretty easily if I just don't wait until the night before the test. 
  2. ... that acid-base reactions are pretty much proton transfers. The acids give away H+ ions. An H+ ion is an H atom that has lost an electron. Hydrogen only has one electron, so if that electron is lost, all that remains to distinguish hydrogen as hydrogen is that lonely little proton. It's crazy awesome! Go chemistry! 
  3. ... that running on dangerous nature trails with a still recovering ankle is mega painful. I screamed quite a few times. But I made it out alive. Now, hopefully I can actually run a decent race Thursday.
I really do love to learn. I was very geeky-excited when I figured out that I could reference two academic topics in today's lessons. Peace.
