I bought my new (or rather old) Zildjian New Beat Hi hats on Saturday! The weekend was pretty hectic and I was involved in a lot of drumming for church and chapel this morning, which went pretty well I think. Yesterday went out with Tai Choo Choo to watch Chow Pei Pei and Zom Zom Li. Had a lot of fun, we had dinner at MOS burger. I'm really thankful for this group of people that God has blessed me with!

Lots of people around me have been getting sick lately, and by God's grace I'm still well! Yip-a-dee-doo-da. Get well soon people!!!

Ok I suppose I should talk about something important. But before do I CHALLENGE YOU to take the ALON CHALLENGE, which is to actually read this post and tell me what it's about. http://4l0n.wordpress.com/2009/08/02/beware-the-words-that-kinda-but-shouldnt-bind-the-haper-whorf-hypothesis-and-why-i-think-in-images-instead-of-words/
Do note that I did not get past the 3rd line. This challenge does not apply to KI-ers and especially to the filipino himself. Or H3 Physics Geeks, cos they're well... h3 physics geeks who have too much time on their hands and spend their days playing com and pei-ing com.

So my important topic of today shall be ............. HEEHEE I just thought of saying something to do with one of the Choo's but I shall not but I shall still say that I thought of saying this in order to create a shroud of mystery ooooooo. Ok err the topic shall be Physical Periodicity.

Physical periodicity is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT, and every chemistry student needs much help in physical periodicity. That is why you should attend Physical Periodicity Revision lectures, because they are very important. It's a shame that I felt a sudden urge to go to the toilet with all my bags once seeing that today's chem lecture was on physical periodicity. I would have benefited so much from attending the lecture. Hopefully tomorrow I won't get a sudden urge to go to the toilet for an hour. Let me tell you a bit about physical periodicity. Across a period in general, the atomic radius of the element decreases. This is because of increasing effective nuclear charge due to increasing number of protons in the nucleus while screening effect remains relatively constant as additional electrons are added to the same subshell! Amazing isn't it? Ionic radius decreases across the period too, but anions are bigger than cations because cations have one entire subshell less. The decrease is due to increasing effective nuclear charge as well because number of protons increases but number of electrons is the same for the ions.

I hope my post on physical periodicity was beneficial.
