  • I started a new school again, and I was trying to make a good impression. I thought it was working.

    That’s when I looked down at the wire sculpture I was working on for the class project we were doing and yelled “it’s a protein!” Then I had to explain to the people at my table that it resembled the secondary structure of a folded protein. From then on they pretty much just whispered to each other the whole time.

      A protein wire sculpture? That’s one of the most awesome things I’ve heard all week.
