Thats cause guju food sucks. My mom rarely allowed it to be cooked in the house lol, way too overcooked and too much sweet and fried shit. Thats why gujus be dying of diabetes by age 65 and shit. How you not gonna have diabetes if you eat rice and bread with every meal, are a vegetarian (so you're probably gonna eat less protein) and eat straight up sugar for desert.

Gajar ka halwa is the carrot one.

Oh yeah, we call it gajarella. Really depends on how it's prepared IMO. TBH I just had so much as a kid I'm kind of sick of it lol

Don't sweat it. Orgo is ultimately pretty different than genchem. You definitely will want to review bonding and orbitals for sure though.

Just treat it like a puzzle, brah. Order one of those 3D kits and eat.
 
damn, that's good to hear. i'll get on that this weekend. i heard the 3D model kits are pretty helpful to understanding the structures.
 
Baklava has to be done right but when it is it's pretty unbeatable. I'm biased towards the lighter Iranian version but I have enough Turkish blood in me that I can get down with other preparations too.

I haven't had a ton of Indian sweets and I know there's a ton of regional variation but it's something I enjoy exploring, albeit slowly because of how sweet this shit can get. As far as Persian stuff goes, I definitely prefer sweets on the lighter/rosewater-y side than the "guaranteed diabetes" stuff that's straight-up sugar.

Persian ice cream GOAT tho

The most important thing is not to freak the fucc out. Treat it like a video game or something and you'll get through it fine. There are lots of people that'll be flipping their shit around you, as long as you ignore them and get the help you need, you'll be fine. And don't be afraid to seek for 3rd party assistance. Organic chemistry teaching is 100% garbage across the board.


I never cared for things flavored with rose or rosewater. Always has a weird.. aftertaste?

Depends. The more math is involved usually the worse a teacher is. I find the guys in the harder sciences to be more...uhhh.. socially disadvantaged. Most of the bio and neuro teachers I had were pretty good at communicating concepts.

Math, chem and physics though...

My biggest obstacle with Orgo was the spectroscopy. That shit takes a lot of practice to nail down.

I did pretty decent at orgo (B, B+ in lecture semesters and an A- in lab) but Synthesis was the hard shit for me. Inside a single chapter it's not bad, but on the finals they'd have cross-chapter synthesis problems for like 10 points fam :(
 
brehs I'm late but I gotta admit the last few tracks Drake has thrown out are crazy. 0 To 100, Draft Day...Trophies is aite too. This shit knocks, especially those drums on Draft Day. Too bad you know his album is gonna be at least 60% lactose.

I like the concept of Trophies and the hook more than the rest of the song. Hate that voice Drake does on the verses. Hate hate hate.

0 to 100 is official though. That's a damn good song and one for the ages, incredibly memorable beat and lyrics. That and Believe Me haven't left my playlist TBH.

I still want a full album of 5AM in Torontos.

love 0 to 100 and I don't even like Drake that much tbh. Believe Me is great too.
 
0 To 100 is one of the best tracks of the year imo. Shit is just nice.

I'm pretty sure The Catch Up is about Drake having a late night conversation with Jhene Aiko about Kendrick.

On that note, this Kanye album can't disappoint brahs.

On one hand, I think Kanye is working with more pressure than he had for Yeezus, which traditionally produces the best albums from him. And he has so many resources at his disposal. We know he was in the studio with Thug at the top of the year and it makes way too much sense that a song with both of them would work. Drake and Kanye are cool and they hit the studio late last year and probably have been trading verses ever since, and it's likely the Weeknd stuff for Yeezus will end up on Yeezus 2 if these rumours are to be believed (lol @ Ye not fucking with Rocky, I find that weird; also mentions how GOOD is having problems with Def Jam which would explain Ye s/o Roc Nation). The proper Drake/Ye collab is long overdue and guaranteed to happen. Pressure + many logical resources and perfect collaborations available to Ye, Ye back to beat making again, sounds like this can't be fucked up.

On the other hand All Day sounds rough and more vapid, senseless-banger ish, and Ye is saying himself that Yeezus 2 will be more familiar. Sounding a lot like Cruel Summer 2 than what Yeezus was supposed to be where there was a clear musical goal to be an experiment in drums.

EDIT: Larry King introduces 2 Chainz :dead

Sounds too good to ever happen. There's always a song or two I really, really, really like from Drake either during the lead up to his albums, or on the album itself, but I've never genuinely liked an entire record from him yet. An album full of 5AM in Torontos would change that.
 
I feel like every STEM professor I've had has been awful.

Same here for the most part they hire people who love their respective subject but don't necessarily hire people who love to teach their respective subject. My genetics professor was like that last year smh made the subject more difficult than it was she said don't read the book too much look at the power slides and do the study guide. The study guide was fucking five pages with multiple steps damn near every question which needed the book to answer them.....

"luxury trap beats"

tbh I'm thinking of WTT when I hear "luxury trap beats"

Oh and Drake throwaways always too dope to be left of a album.

All these Kanye rumors sound really.. Rumor-y. Just like with Yeezus. We'll see what comes out.

I'll Cosign 0-100, but I like about half of NWTS.

Mamacita is definitely the best track off Days Before Rodeo for me. "Got them pornstar big booties"

Mamacita/Drugs You Should Try It/Skyfall > Sloppy Toppy > Quintana Pt 2 > whatever else is on the thing idk

Personally:

Days Before Rodeo
Mamacita = Quintana Pt.2
Skyfall
Drugs You Should Try It
Sloppy Toppy

They're all super close for me though.

Backyard the only good track on that Travis Scott tape
you gotta hold this L for calling dude garbo and fucking with that song

I guess the beat sounds kind of Kendrick-y though.

I can definitely see it but with the exception of maybe an engineering professor, everyone else at my schools seemed to be socially competent. A Math professor would have poker nights with other faculty and a couple of students he was closer with, a Physics professor (he was kinda young, early 30s at the time) would go out for drinks with his students. It's funny, he was going to throw a house party and everyone started talking about it that faculty found out and told him to cancel it.

But the Physics professor was extremely knowledgeable that he was able to explain concepts in a new light if you didn't get it at first. Super smart dude.
