WHO IS SPILLING THINGS EVERYWHERE!?

Yes, the title says basically explains the day I had. In my chemistry lab we had to work with micro amounts of dissolved compounds and because of that I was going to pick up the little glass applicators when the bottle was stuck to this paper... a paper that was also under all of the solution bottles... and yes I said all of them. This caused the bottles to overturn and spill all over the counter, the paper, me, and my assignment. Quickly uprighting the containers and composing myself I tried again to get the little glass applicators, by picking up the bottle... I think you can see where this is going. Lets just say that I was quickly turning red and becoming flustered when a guy in my class looked at me and said, "Bummer, I would just run!".

Well that is solid advice and I would have taken it except I still had not accomplished what I came to do, put the dabs of reagent on the slide! So this time making sure that I did not try to pick the bottle up I was able to get the glass applicators and then apply the reagent. I was in the clear... time to run back to my station! Just as I was placing the last dab my TA came up behind me and shouted, "WHO IS SPILLING THINGS EVERYWHERE!?".

This did two things, one it scared the living daylights out of me, which caused me to flinch and almost knock them over again, but it also caused my face to turn about 4 shades of red and there was no way I couldn't confess now.

Luckily I have the coolest TA on the planet and he let it slide. He also let it slide when I exposed my slide to the UV light and it quickly became apparent that I had spilled A LOT of the reagents on the top of the slide because the whole thing was black (it should have glowed green). Lets just say, I hope we never have to do that again!

SHOUT OUT for Scentsy


I am a Scentsy Independent Consultant and I absolutely love my job! I love that I get to have parties. I love sharing memories and stories that are brought about by that one fragrance. I love seeing the new items, and how people can get creative with creating their own fragrances by mixing bars. I love that I get to be my own boss, make my own hours, and work when I can and want while also attending school!

However, this October I love the warmer of the month the most! This is the perfect gift for literally everyone, and it is just in time for the holidays. Take a look!
Oh MAN so much has happened since I last wrote!!!

I the summer concluded with me taking a job selling Scentsy, which if you don't know is about the best product on the market right now in terms of candle type things. Really! If you don't believe me check them out for yourself... I insist! (www.caitlynhammersley.scentsy.us)
I turned 21, I am back at school and it seams like my time is not my own. I have 4 science classes with 4 very science labs. I have papers, tests, homework, reading, and lab reports coming out my ears! Then to balance a social life, ministry, and my own sanity is quite a juggling act! Luckily I have the best friends on the planet and a family that supports me to the end.

One thing that I have found to relax is a little show called Grey's Anatomy... maybe you have heard of it. I know that this is a complete shocker that a pre-med student is a fan of a medical show... but listen okay. =) My roommate and I have found that there is all of the past seasons available on Netflics, available to stream on the computer. This has now consumed all of our free time! There is one line from a show today that made me laugh. They were talking about how doctors are social retards, they endure 4 years of high school, 4 years of college, and 4 years of medical school. So when they finally emerge they have the social life that has not matured since 9th grade, and are all hopped up on medical and science findings. We are just awkward! That reminded me of this blog and how much I miss it. Please stay tuned for more because I am sure this semester is going to have a lot of great stories!
