Metabolise! (Biochemistry Song)
Metabolise!
Music: Breaking Free (Zac Efron & Vanessa Hudgens)
Rendition of: Edgar Vincent Peñano Bautista
Troy:
We’re thirsty, hungry
Our cells are dying
And there’s no energy
Gabriella:
If we’re lucky
We can make it tomorrow
I know what we really need
Food rich with carbohydrates
Gabriella:
And with all those sugar
We’ll have ATP
Both:
But there are still bonds to break
Glycosidic Bonds
Chorus #1
Metabolise!
Gabriella:
Sucrose
No! Glucose
Both:
Glucose is known as an aldohexose
If we need it
Both:
Use glycolysis.
To release energy.
Gabriella:
Ohhhh
Troy:
Wait we’re forgetting something
We need other macromolecules
Gabriella:
Oh yes I forgot about
Proteins and Enzymes
Both:
Eating different kinds of food
So we can be healthy
Chorus #2
Gabriella: We’re eating’
Both:
Eat lots of protein for our cell’s functions.
Troy:
And for enzymes
and antibodies
Gabriella:
Proteins
Yeah proteins
The body’s proteins
Both:
Consists of amino acids
There are twenty
Both:
Linked with peptide bonds
Troy:
Let’s name some
Gabriella:
Essential Amino Acids
Histamine
Arginine
Gabriella:
Tryptophan
Threonine
Isoleucine
Both:
Methionine
Leucine
Lysine
Gabriella:
Valine, what else?
Both:
Phenylalanine!
Chorus #3
Gabriella: DNA
Troy: RNA
Both:
They’re made of phosphate and nitrogenous bases
Pentose Sugar
Gabriella:
Ribose for RNA
Water In
Water Out
Both:
You can change them
By synthesis and hydrolysis
Biochem is fun!
Troy: But it’s already time…
Gabriella: we’re breaking free
Both:
You must know your Biochem
To truly understand… us…
Knowing Organic Chemistry (Chemistry Song)
Knowing Organic Chemistry
Music: Start of Something New (Zac Efron & Vanessa Hudgens)
Rendition of: Edgar Vincent Peñano Bautista
Living in my own world
Didn't understand
What things are really made of
And how they’re formed
Encountering Organic Chem
Oh I then could see
The beauty of C & H
And all the possibilities
I know that it’s in the bonds
Always covalent bonds
And right here I know
This could be the start
Of something new
Like formaline
To preserve all things
And then adding in more C’s
Then saturate
The start of something new
Now who'd of ever thought that
Benzene is really Bad!
With its six Carbon Chain (Carbon, Carbon)
Electrons delocalized
I know it’s a carcinogen
Maybe a mutagen
I know it for real
This could be the start
Of something new
Like Aspirin
To relieve our pain
And then adding functional groups
I feel in my heart
The start of something new
I never knew that it could happen
With just hydrolysis and hydration
I didn't know it before
But now it's easy to see
It's a start
Of something new
Tires and shampoo
Made from polymers
And now cleaving of some C’s
Or repositioning
That it's the start
Of something new
It feels so right
To know all these things
And now looking through Organic Chem
I feel in my heart
The start of something new
Start of something new

Sex Sells

I have noticed that in every form of advertisement there is always a tinge of sex, if not, all out sexual message is seen. Pervertive acts, words, and even thoughts are already made normal in this era and it is quite alarming.
What ever happened to true love? What happened to purity? I blame the media for this. The media is what sets trends, the what's good and whats bad; the what's hot and what's not. But I also think that the people who follow these trends are stupid. Why do they have to be such stereotypes?!
I can excuse the stupid teens for being so stupid and horny but even some adults are not to be excused from this excessive lust. Whatever happened to the saying that the adults are suppose to set an example?
I think that money and sex are the roots of all evil. These are the structural sins of society... I just hope that we put an end to this soon and reclaim our souls...
I don't want to sound like a righteous Christian but really... I don't think that I am all good... I am also a sinner... I just realized my mistakes.
Cardcaptor Sakura

I can't believe that a months worth of thrilling adventure and fantasy is finally coming to an end... I will wiss you Sakura-chan... buhuhu...
Oh damn you people... don't think that I am childish for loving anime so much! If you only know the great joy it brings to me. Anime has thought me so many lessons in life and it is because of anime that I am more inspired than ever!
Anyway... I don't want to summarize what Cardcaptor Sakura is and explain what I am talking about because you can only search the web using my search bar to the left and you would be amazed to know that I am not the only one tranquilized by the fantastic story line and cuteness of Cardcaptor Sakura. I am going to post a link of the site where I got hold of my CCS episodes. I really am thankful for this site. When I am rich enough I'll donate money big time to this site for making me so happy...
Hmm... the simple pleasures in life...
As Sakura-chan keepson uttering, "I will definitely be ok..."
