I Am Why I Have An Affinity With Chemistry

In “Love: The Right Chemistry”, author Anastasia Toufexis discusses the philosophy of love in a more technical manner, by expressing it through scientific knowledge. She argues that, “Love rests firmly on the foundations of evolution, biology, and chemistry.” Toufexis

The article '' love: the right chemistry'' by Anastasia Toufexis efforts to explain the concept of love from a scientific aspect in which an amateur will understand. Briefly this essay explains and describe in a scientific way how people's stimulation of the body works when you're falling in love. The new scientific researches have given the answer through human physiology how genes behave when your feelings for example get swept away. The justification for this is explained by how the brain gets flooded by chemicals. The author expresses in one point that love isn't just a nonsense behavior nor a feeling that exhibits similar properties as of a narcotic drug. This is brought about by an organized chemical chain who controls different

I have always known that I wanted to pursue an education in science; there were simply too many questions in this world that had yet to be answered. Never did I expect my love of music, however, to have truly inspired and intertwined with my love for chemistry. This, I learned, is because my admiration for music and chemistry are one and the same. Music has taught me that chemistry is also a form of art. I first

The connotation with a scar is often a mark of physical damage to one’s skin, but a scar can also be psychological or emotional damage. Scars are seen as that something bad or wrong has happened but every scar also tells a story, a lesson even. We usually do not think the ones we love, or used to love, could be the ones who can scar us. In my last relationship, I loved the girl with all of my heart. I loved her so much that her views soon became my own and I began to lose my sense of self. What I learned from that relationship is what has shaped me into the person I am today.

I am sitting here completely dumb founded as I think about chemistry. How does chemistry relate to me? How do I relate chemistry? It is such a subject that I am unsure of how it fits into my life other than a class I took in high school. As I dig deeper instead of just scratching the surface, I realize that I use and will be going to use chemistry more and more in my life.

All I wanted to do was go tubing and play on the beach. In order to go tubing, my uncle, who was also the boat driver, said that I needed to try to ski. All of my cousins and aunts and uncles thought this was a good idea and they pumped my ego up into trying to do it. I remember stepping into the cold water; I could feel my leg hairs growing out of their pores due to the temperature. I slowly walked deeper into the lake so I could try to ski for the first time. I put the skis on my feet and sat in the water until my uncle started to drive. After my first attempt of water skiing I had the fresh smell of blood waft through my nose. This is not a normal scent but this happened because I hit my face on the ski falling forward. I felt the sharp pain in my nose, but it did not last very long. Thankfully for this, I did not want to give up yet. I happened to think that it was funny that I had a minor bloody nose. I saw multiple people boating, skiing, wake boarding and tubing on the lake so I wanted to get up on the skis and go join them. I tried to get up multiple times but my legs just were not strong enough and after each time that I failed, my arms grew weaker and weaker. Although all of my family was cheering for me, I grew

It all started when I was chosen to join an invention competition that was held in Indonesia. I had the opportunity to expose myself to the full range of the chemical and engineering courses, in which it helped to reinforce and solidify my intense interest in Chemistry. During the competition, I had to convince the

When I was four years old, I wasn’t paying attention to my parents and as they were walking into a store, they left me behind. I remember really wanting a Barbie bicycle and I had been distracted. I was then left alone inside of Rockingham Mall and since I was only four, I didn’t know what to do. At first, I started panicking and looking around the mall. I remember seeing a lot of people walking by and it was a really busy day. So then I started to cry and I walked around the mall all by myself. I was on the second floor at that time so I went down the stairs, which I tripped on. I had hit my hand badly and it was bleeding. That’s when I started to cry. I then walked around the mall crying until I reached one of the exits.

While sitting within Kempner High School’s auditorium my sophomore year and watching AP Chemistry students conduct fascinating experiments on stage, I began breaking down each individual’s experiment to its fundamental concepts. Pulling out different concepts from these specific examples, I began watching as each of those concepts interacted with one another. I specifically remember seeing a student prepare a batch of sodium polyacrylate and mixing the compound with water to ultimately completed the students’ goal. But what goal did this AP student accomplish? For the goal of this student may have been simply to create a synthetic snow, but the effects of their actions on myself started shaping my passion for Chemistry. Although the student

I am interested in attending this program because I am currently in AP Chemistry and I have taken AP Biology in my sophomore year which I really enjoyed. Because I took these courses I truly believe that going to the program will be an opportunity for me to integrate my knowledge and further explore topics that I have not been exposed to yet. I also would like to explore Purdue University in general and see how the campus is. I am also intrigued by the idea of looking into different chemicals and how much influence they have on human health. It’s possible that through this program we will discover new chemicals that will be the solution to an epidemic. I believe there is so much to learn, beyond what I have learned at school and therefore

The authors Anastasia toufexis in her book “Love: The chemistry “, provides an insightful description of love from a chemical perspective in her article. She presents an argument that love is based on elements that revolve around evolution, biology and chemistry. The main point of the article is focused on the development of Romance. Anastasia believes that, Love does not only focus on the reproductive tract, but for it to be meaningful, the romance must be involved.

Conscious thoughts affirmation I experience love where I go - I allowed myself to feel the love around me I appreciate all that I do - I stayed present in the moment living in the now I love and appreciate myself - I smiled at myself in the mirror Day 5 (Friday) What can I learn from this experience? What are you passionate about?

I have had countless experiences in my lifetime with a lesson that accompanies each one of them. Each one of these experiences has presented me with an opportunity to learn and grow. There is a certain event that stands above the rest that contained a profound learning experience. This event was when I was involved in a serious car accident. Sometime in October of 2014 I was with my mom driving through Detroit, Michigan when we were struck violently by a car from behind.
