A few years ago, I witnessed one of the most heartbreaking moments when my uncle died.
It was an open casket, and my aunt (his wife) approached it. She looked lovingly at him, then straightened his tie, straightened his lapels, and ran her fingers through his hair. Then she kissed him on the forehead. I don't think I've ever been so touched in my life. They were married for ~40 years.
I personally wouldn't go up there, I don't think I could.
Your thoughts?
[QUOTE="hobbez"]I've been "cubing" for about 5 months now. And my average solve is around 40secs, and this is the guy who taught me how to solve the cube. I blogged about it once..Brainkiller05
Wow he's good, I didn't understand the tutorial though
Aw really? That's one of the best and simplest Rubik's cube tutorial videos I've seen, to be honest, and I've seen quite a lot. There are a few others that use different methods but his method (the method is not really his but the method he explained) is by far the easiest and the most popular.
Solving the cube is not that hard really, it's memorization and pattern recognition, dexterous fingers help though..
[QUOTE="hobbez"][QUOTE="champion_tyler"]I'm thinking of being a pharmacist, but I don't really know that much about it. I'm not reallybig in to science, but I can get really good at something if it is repetitive. I'm just wondering if anyone has any idea of how much science it involves. i know chemistry is a big part, and I've never taken it. It just seems like a good career and it seemed interesting. Also, I don't really have great social skills, but I know that getting a business degree would be a good option. How much of business would involve strictly behind-the-scenes work (like no speaking in front of a group of people)?champion_tyler
Well, I'm debating whether or not I should pursue pharmacy or go to grad school and take more organic chemistry, and I have less than 1 year to decide. I've shadowed a phamacist before for about a few weeks and this is what I can tell you. The thing about pharmacy (this is the production part of pharmacy) is that it requires a lot of patience, something I do not quite have. I don't know if you've taken chem labs before, not the silly apparatus calibrating labs but the mixing of chemicals lab, but it takes a long time to get a tiny amount of product you want. You start with gallons of chemicals and usually you only get a beaker of your desired product. I've been taking various chem labs for about 3 1/2 years now, and I can tell it's not that fun. With pharmacy, this is all you do; you sit, you mix, you wait for **** to happen. In a way, there's some fun to it. You make new stuff.
If you're not a big fan of science, well, I don't know what to tell you. You need to take a lot of science classes. Chemistry is not an easy subject. It is interesting, and I like it, but it's far from easy. So I think before you decide, take a few chemistry classes first and see how you like those.
Primordial, I think you're talking about pharmacy tech?
Big help man, thanks. Yeah, this doesn't quite sound like me. I was also thinking that Prmiordial was talking about pharmacy tech. That can't pay near as much, can it?
To be honest, I haven't looked at salaries yet..
