I need that book....
I, under advisement by my organic chemistry professor, ordered 1.5 lbs of caffeinated mints! I went through about .5lb last semester, it's what kept my biochemistry grade up while I studied every class that wasn't biochemistry. I read an article that said being under the influence of caffeine (both before or after) attending a lecture showed significant retention in the material.
I think it was about the caffeine high making it in general a more "memorable" experience.

I agree with you bro. Whether I was high or just on a humongous sugar rush, I did better in my classes. Actually one semester I was high 95% of the time and I worked nights and had to be in class at like 8am. I slept thru almost every single class that semester, but yet I got straight A's. No cheating or anything, just waking and baking every morning.
Maybe when I slept I could hear the professors talking and it just became ingrained in my brain.
I was prepared for failure and then got knocked on my ass when I seen they spelled "AAAAAAAAAAAAAA" on my report card.lol.

I'm 3/4's of the way done with my calculus textbook, that and my physics text are about the only things I'm reading right now.

God's Equation
Some crazy contractor engineer told me I had to read this, and gave me a copy to take home and read.
Technically I haven't started reading it yet...planning on cracking this one open later tonight.

The bookshelf has been re-organized a little bit today. I got a pretty decent collection going on here.
Just felt like sharing.

Thanks! That rug was actually the original thing in this garage, so i based the overall vibe around that. It's a pretty big rug, takes up half the floorspace.

I like the color scheme you've gone for there. That's probably how I'd decorate my home.
