Today I slept in till 7am and then finished my homework before going to Mineralogy. At Mineralogy I learned about the reasons why minerals have such complex chemical compositions. It turns out that atoms and molecules of similar sizes can fill similar areas in a minerals chemical composition. Then in Differential Equations the sub elaborated on more ways to use the Laplace principle. Next I spent a couple hours sorting shells in the lab before going home. Now I will study in peace.

Today I woke up at 6am and finished studying for the Mineralogy lab quiz. Then I went to school and took the quiz over carbonates and sulfates. Then we completed a lab about light refraction of minerals in oils of different densities. Next I went to Anthropology lecture and learned what a chiefdom is. Texas A&M is a great example of a chiefdom. Then I went to Field Methods and learned about a 3 point method of determining a dip of a tabular body of rock. After that I worked on homework and studied for a few hours. In Geos 101 we learned about sedimentary studies around the world and in our galaxy. Now I’m going to spend a few hours doing homework.
