Today was a hard day.

I was not a good teacher for my second year chem class. For some reason, my brain hit a wall when trying to describe a concept (relative rates of reaction) and I just could not come up with a good explanation. They're confused, frustrated, and tired. So am I. That's not a good mix.

This class waits for me to explain every single thing. Many have waited too long to start their final assignment and it's all hitting the fan with a test looming.
