Chemistry SUPW!

In the entire week, we have the worst timetable on thursdays. 9 continuous theory periods! Double Bio, double Math, double Chem... its mind-numbing. But last period we have SUPW... and three of my friends and I have opted for Chemical Use In Daily Life... sounds interesting, na? It really is... we make phenyl, handwash soap etc etc... i know i know, what the hell are WE doing here? but we have loads of fun! seriously!!
Nami got this method for preparin jam, so thats what we're gonna do next... Sir dictated the method to us today, and it was totally like science journal work! :) here it is :

EXPERIMENT : MIXED FRUIT JAM

REQUIREMENTS-
4 papayas
6 chikoos
12 apples
12 bananas
1 pineapple
1/2 kg black grapes
6 kg sugar
6 tsp citric acid
1.5 tsp sodium benzoate
potassium cyanide (just kidding!!! DO NOT ADD THIS) (unless ofcourse, the Princi is goin to be the first one to sample it... then i wouldnt mind adding just a bit of KCN) (but seriously, DONT)
raspberry red food colouring
strawberry and pineapple essences

PROCEDURE -
Take pulp from all the fruits and cook. Pass ity through a strainer. To the cooked pulp add equal quantity of sugar and keep it on fire till the required consistency. Add 6 tsp citric acid 10 minutes before removing from the fire and test for doneness. Then add food colouring, strawberry essence, pineapple essence, and sodium benzoate. Mix and bottle it immediately.

EXPECTED RESULT -
12 bottles of 200 gms each.

PRECAUTIONS -
The pulp should be passed through a strainer and not put in a mixer otherwise the jam will become pasty. Citric acid should not be added in the beginning otherwise inversion (of what?) will take place. No head space should be left in the bottles (whose head?). Bottles should be closed after the jam cools.

OBSERVATIONS AND FINAL RESULT -
coming soon... :)

Rumors

Saturday - steppin' into the club
The music makes me wanna tell the DJ
Turn It Up
I feel the energy all around
And my body can't stop moving to the sound

But I can tell that you're watching me
And you're probably gonna write what you didn't see
Well I just need a little space to breathe
Can you please respect my privacy?

Why can't you just let me do the things I wanna do
I just wanna be me, I don't understand
Why would you wanna bring me down
I'm only having fun, I'm gonna live my life
(But not the way you want me to)

I'm tired of rumors starting
I'm sick of being followed
I'm tired of people lying
Saying what they want about me
Why can't they back up off me?
Why can't they let me live?
I'm gonna do it my way
Take this for just what it is!

Here we are back up in the club
People taking pictures, don't you think they'd get enough?
I just wanna be all over the floor
And throw my hands up in the air to a beat like (What?)

I gotta say respectfully,
I would love it if you take the cameras off of me
'Cause I just want a little room to breathe
Can you please respect my privacy?

Why can't you just let me do the things I wanna do
I just wanna be me, I don't understand
Why would you wanna bring me down
I'm only having fun, I'm gonna live my life
(But not the way you want me to)
