Entropy

Entropy, natures tenancy toward disorder. It is something I have come to understand more from dorm life than a thermodynamics textbook. One only needs to peer into the life of a college student to understand the second law of thermodynamics. The room that was clean on Monday by Friday is nothing more than a sea of textbooks, papers, and empty coffee cups. With horror, I observe that it has reached its lowest energy and a state of equilibrium. Entropy to some may seem like a mysterious topic but is really nothing more than the hopeless realization that energy must be put into the system to work against entropy, or to put it more precisely a dorm rooms not going to clean itself.
