Midnight- the witching-hour strikes A change comes over me The tangent of my mind is integrated into a world of fantasy A wave-function spreading ever wider no telling where I am. My bleary eyes crawl over highlighted pages The footprints of previous wanderers Stumbling, like me, through dark passages Forged long ago by names which …
Jonathan Hughes
My name is Jonathan Hughes. Right now I am a sophomore majoring in chemistry. I like to problem-solve and chemistry lets me do that. I hope to start a career as a chemical engineer, working for a few years until I go for my masters in environmental– or history if I get sick of engineering. I was home-schooled and after “graduating” I worked at the Metro Spirit for a couple of years, which gave me a perspective on what happens after college. I still write articles for various papers from time to time. I write some short stories as well. I like my literature short and to the point. I like pretty much everything that way. I am a hockey fanatic, despite growing up in the South (first Texas, then here). I also like to mountain bike, and I play chess. And above all I like to keep a sense of humor about everything. If you can’t laugh at it, you’re not taking it seriously.

The thing is, when people ask me who I listen to, I have a hard time answering. …
Homeworked-Up
Seriously, who gives homework this late in the semester? My professor does, apparently. He thinks that just because he has been teaching stuff, we should be able to, like, apply it and stuff. Meanwhile I was in a fog today and definitely not able to apply lessons I’d learned just a couple of hours previously. …
Eat It
I haven’t really talked about food on campus, only on the cost inflation of machine-vended toaster pastries. I don’t want to give the impression that ASU food is grossly overpriced- there is a markup, but it is not too bad for what you get. The problem I have is that there is no daily bread …
Time of the Season
It felt good, turning in my lab key. A semester of titrations and using that stupid little pipet to draw out acid, done and done. I was a little nervous about my last lab, which required us to use a solution we’d made several weeks before. As it turned out, that was the only lab …
