Please feel free to add more learning focused websites. 

*There are a lot more learning websites out there, but I picked the ones that are, as far as I’m aware, completely free and in my opinion the best/ more useful.

okay, here’s a really cool concept:

You’re ridiculously confident. Confident enough to not give a single eff about what they’re thinking when you go do the crazy things that you do.

You’re brave. Brave enough to stay true to your deepest values and desires where most follow the crowd blindly.

You’re insane, or at least that’s what they call you. Insane to want big dreams and then chase them with all of your might when others are still stuck in cages of self-doubt and hesitance.

You’re kind. Kind enough to portray your compassion and true humanity in a world where most are living fake, plastic lives and refuse to show just a little more kindness.

You’re beautiful. Always were and always will be. Your eyes sparkle with hope and positivity and your smile is angelic. When you laugh, it’s pure joy, and seeing you happy makes others happy as well.

You’re strong. Strong enough to get through all the difficulties and resistance you’re experiencing now and find faith and love on the other side.

You’re capable, wildly capable. Capable of your dreams and the desires that keep you awake at night, keep you alive. You truly deserve to make them a reality.

But most importantly, you’re free. Free now. Alive now. You have the freedom, the time and the responsibility to choose what kind of a person you want to be today when you go out into the world. So choose now. And choose to be the real you, not someone else that people have made you believe you are. Choose.

people who can graciously hide that they don’t like people are so terrifying. last year while working on tech for a play i asked my friend how he became friends with another guy on the crew and he got quiet, looked straight into my soul and said “he’s not my friend. i fucking hate him.” i lost 5 years of my life

Iconic Bellarke lines

To get you through these tough times, until Bellarke is an official ship.

1. Bellamy: If I’m on that list, you’re on that list. Write it down or I will.

2. Bellamy: Clarke, If I don’t see you again-

Clarke: No, You will

3. Bellamy: We can’t lose Clarke! We can’t lose her.

4. Clarke: You’ve got such a big heart Bellamy. People follow you, you inspire them because of this (Touches his heart). But the only way we’re gonna get through this is if you use this too (touches his head).

Bellamy: I got you for that.

5. Clarke: The Heart and the Head.

Bellamy: The Heart and the head

6. Bellamy: I was so mad at you for leaving. I don’t want to feel that way anymore.

7. Bellamy: Besides, I could use a break from keeping you alive.

Clarke: Thank you for keeping me alive.

Bellamy: Well, you don’t make it easy.

8. Diyoza: 283 lives for one. She must be pretty important to you.

Bellamy: She is.

9. Jaha: She’s lucky to have you. You keep her centred.

Bellamy: You got it backwards.

10. Bellamy: Together.

Antimicrobial Agents  - Cell wall inhibitors

Based on mode of action • divided into families based on chemical structure

 Modes of action Interference with: 

cell wall synthesis 

protein synthesis 

nucleic acid synthesis 

plasma membrane integrity 

metabolic pathway 

Inhibitors of Bacterial Cell Wall (peptidoglycan) Synthesis 

The Beta-lactam Family 

The Glycopeptides 

Peptidoglycan is composed of N-acetylglucosamine (NAG) and N-acetylmuramic acid (NAM) repeat units, and amino acids.  Each NAM is linked to peptide chain and the peptide chains are cross-linked.

β-lactams 

Includes penicillin derivatives (penams), cephalosporins (cephems), monobactams, and carbapenems.

class of broad-spectrum antibiotics containing a β-lactam ring

Bacterial transpeptidase enzymes are responsible for catalysing cross-linking of the peptide chains

β-lactam ring bind to these transpeptidases – this inhibits cross-linking between peptide chains and prevents synthesis of stable PG

Cell wall synthesis ceases and the bacterial cells eventually die due to osmotic instability or autolysis. 

Glycopeptides 

Polypeptide agents - basic structural elements amino acids 

Vancomycin: 

complexes with peptide portion of peptidoglycan’s precursor units 

vancomycin is a large hydrophilic molecule able to form hydrogen bonds with the terminal D-alanyl-D-alanine moieties of the NAM/NAG-peptides

preventing PG transglycosylation reaction – PG precursor subunits (NAG-NAM+peptide) cannot be inserted into peptidoglycan matrix;

Vancomycin also alters bacterial-cell-membrane permeability and RNA synthesis

Uses:  serious Gram positive infections e.g. MRSA wound infection

Adverse effects:

damage to auditory nerve 

hearing loss (ototoxicity) 

“Red man/neck” syndrome - rash on face, neck, upper torso 

so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god

If you're tired, read this. Please.

Hey, amigo.

It’s hard, isn’t it?

I know. Sometimes, it’s painful too.

Sometimes you really wanna give up, throw the books, hide in a corner and never take any action again.

I understand. I really do.

But I’m not here to collaborate on the pity party. I’m not going to join in on the groaning challenge, or complain about how hard it is.

First, get this though. It is hard. I won’t lie. It is worth groaning upon. Maybe one or two pity parties are affordable too.

Yet, there’s a pact we’ve make together, and I’d like to remind you of it, before we talk further. New here? We call it the Shush Pact.

Don’t do it. Don’t complain. Don’t whine. Don’t give in so easily. Don’t.

Go ahead. Make the pact. Now.

Go on! Do it.

Tell yourself, today’s hard. Tiring. But, I won’t give in to this. Nor will I complain and moan about it, and waste my energy. Not today, Amelia! Today’s not that day.

Done?

Sure?

Okay. Let’s go.

If you’re tired.

If you’re tired, exhausted of the hustle, and almost at your breaking point, I want you to remember how MUCH this means to you.

I don’t know what’s driving you nuts. Maybe it’s a math problem you just can’t crack. The presentation due next week that isn’t up to the mark. Maybe it’s 3 gigantic books you have to read up on before your next theology class. Perhaps your business has come at a standstill, and you can’t get it to grow. Or maybe you hate your job, and have finally, bravely, taken the step to work the 6 hours after you come home on building the art portfolio of your dreams, because in your heart, you’ve always been an artist. Maybe you’re juggling three jobs and working late nights to save enough money to catch the dream bus.

I don’t know. But I do know that it means a lot to you.

I know how passionate you’re about this, and how much it means to you.

And yet, you’re tired.

You’re tired of it!

You’re tired of studying so much. You’re tired of DMing every business in town, to have none reply back. You’re tired of working so much, handling so much, and you feel like you haven’t had a break since you were a kid. You’re tired of the pressure, you’re tired of the hustle and you just… wanna quit.

Don’t.

Please.

It’s hard to be positive in this dark, numb time and you’re starting to work mechanically, questioning your existence with every hour, but I have to make you understand! You’re worth this! You’re so worthy of this, my love.

Please don’t quit.

Don’t give up. It’s hard, but seal those lips, and trust your gut. I know you can make it. You’ve worked so hard for this! You’ve struggled so much, invested in so many weeks of work, and right now, at your breaking point, I want you to realise that you’re worthy. Of getting that grade, that degree, finding a job you love, your crazy ambitions of opening a flower shop… everything! All of it!

You deserve the world.

Listen to me. Open your ear and listen: you’re tired, yes. But here’s the truth. You’re not done yet.

You’ve got so much to prove to yourself. So many identities to identify yourself with. Exams to slay, jobs to get, money to make, dreams to build, people to meet and love to spread.

Listen. There’s more to this. There’s more to YOU.

Don’t give up now.

Not today.

You’re not done yet.

Tiredness will pass, and I want you to just try pushing through this. Just try. You’ll see you’re so capable of winning and it’ll blow your mind when you look back and realise the strength you truly possessed because you were able to push through.

Winning is your blood. It’s your oxygen.

Tiredness is a toxic. A poison. You’re not tired, you just think you are. When the human brain says it’s done, it’s actually got 70% more to give.

Don’t forget. Your legacy awaits. If this truly means everything to you, if you’ve already put in hundreds of hours of work into this, PUSH THROUGH! You’ve got to, because your future self deserves a better life! Don’t let them tell you that you need a break. A Hawaii vacation. They’ll say you’re getting nowhere and urge you to take a break.

You and me, we both know you don’t need one. You just needed a reminder of your capabilities.

And I’ve given you that now.

Just remember, you’re not done yet.

So fuck tiredness.

Go win.
