http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckyballs

It's the recently discovered third pure form of carbon. There are diamonds, graphite, and Fullerene (C60). I made a model of it using paper hexagons/pentagons. Very cool. It's a soccer ball basically.

Finally someone who appreciates science. Anyway, look up Bose-Einstein condensate and superfluids - I bet you'll enjoy reading about them.

Yay science nerds! The stuff in Science magazine is just thrilling to me. I'll look up that stuff.

I've heard of those. Aren't they the same shape as geodesic domes?
EDIT: I also looked up the Bose-Einstein condensates and the superfluids. I don't really understand them, but they sound really cool.

They are geodesic spheres.

I got about halfway through the condensates until the girl I've been pursuing told me that she just broke up with her boyfriend, and that required my attention

It's really funny because on the local 11 PM news, I say some seniors at my highschool being interviewed at the movies about the new Harry Potter movie. It was really funny.
