AP Chemistry and Fiberglas

I just finished my AP chemistry exam. I feel so liberated: I don't have to wake up early every weekend to study it, I don't have to fret in my sleep any more about it, I don't have to study it endlessly, I am free! Well, at least for the moment.

Last period I almost got high on Fiberglas resin. That stuff is wicked. If you get it on your gloves, it stays there. If you get it in your brushes, it stays there, and it ruins the brush permanently. Even soaking the brushes in gasoline doesn't do a thing. That stuff is incredible. It hardens in about a quarter of an hour, so you have to work quickly while wearing latex gloves, aprons and gas masks (that don't do anything.)
