Reversing Biology

one very long entry coming up. not advisable for easily bored people...

thomas eisnar is fast becoing my mentor for my isolate (frustrated!) studies in biology. he is a chemical ecologist who is a musician as well. i've read an article/interview of him in that heavy bio book over there, and he's such a fancy funny guy. he recounts how charles darwin puts a bombardier beetle in his mouth to catch two other beetles. the reaction of the bombardier was to emit a chemical mixture whose temperature matched the boiling point of water. i bet darwin suffered cankers soon after.

eisnar is a very funny guy. i can feel his sunny disposition even if im just reading him. and he knows his biology very well. and anatomy. he recounts... this is the funny part... that human males have glands on their armpits that effuses a certain chemical scent that when sniffed by women, will regularize their ovulation cycle...

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! lolh.

see. women needs men. else they'd go cranky like hardwood, and all the women in the world will be uptight little misses petrificus totalus.

erm. hay. it's just so bad that i didn't write BS BIOLOGY in my upcat form two years ago. i know i have the makings of a biologist. when i was a child, my peers would go wet themselves on mud puddles or tinker stupidly with their toy trucks that only goes forward or backwards. during those times, im playing with ants, or certain annelids, or even pelicypeds.

i love the way life forms responded to chemical stimuli. like a worm for example. they curdle (like milk haha) when you put rock salt on them. so basically i like torturing critters. so you're doubting my makings for a biologist now dont you? after reading the introduction of that heavy bio book over there, i realized that bio has a very big problem hindering the forward progress of the study of life.

when you study life, you have to break it down into it's elementary particles. and in the process, disrupt the process of life itself.

it's like bringing death to a living unit.

if i had the makings of a biologist, maybe id even have the makings of person who would found a new field of science that would revolutionize the importance of death in relation to the study of life. if there's a biology, can there be a necrology?

mortology? deathology?

in their quest to learn more about life and soul, biologists kill living organisms. they isolate organelles from the cell through centrifugation, to learn more about them. if you have to disrupt life in order to study it, maybe there is a way to study life through the death of an organism.

or better yet, bring back life to a collection of organic molecules that ceased from functioning (i.e. cadavers...)

agh. all so abstract. you'll soon get what im saying.

...

tin:

im not avoiding anybody. im just so busy creating a routine for my sem. i will be in touch soon.

...

teka. you're saying everyone says i appear to be avoiding you. how come you're the only one confronting me about this?

if you'll look closely, nobody's bothered that im not around...

... or is it just me? ...

i cant wait for french 11. mam ventanilla is the best. even better than mam zapata. mam ventanilla speaks better french. i hope id be as good as her.



-squeak then touch me not-
