How to know if you are spending too much time on Organic Chemistry

O-chem has ceased to be an activity and has become a verb. “Sorry, I don’t have time today; I’m o-chem-ing tonight.”

You can do reactions in your sleep.

Instead of just reading the label on food products you have an overwhelming desire to actually draw all of the chemicals listed.

You dream about your organic chemistry professor.

You find yourself talking about o-chem with people that aren’t even in chemistry classes.

You read your textbook more than your Bible.

Your reaction flashcards go everywhere with you; you are even considering making flashcards that are waterproof for the shower.

You start sentences about other classes with “unlike my o-chem. class…”

You try to relate everything in your other classes to organic chemistry.

You own a nerdy O-chem shirt.

Cheers!
