I made banana oil... BANANA OIL. I literally made an artificial flavor, which means it's the same chemical compound found in bananas that give them their scent and flavor. Only I made it from isoamyl alcohol, acetic acid, H2SO4, NaHCO3, and brine. Coolest thing ever.

It keeps changing... the "funny" was a later addition

I may not be good at quizzes.. but I aced the test.

A surprise I found on the lab's board... used to say "Shelbie actually enjoys being TA." I responded "Of course! Why wouldn't I?" Next week... this was there...

Forgot the darn bibliography...
