Weighing the Earth

Today I decided to get some of my school work done, instead of trying to decide what my next experiment would be. So, I went to the library to get some quite studying and to catch up on my homework. While I was looking for a book to help me with my history homework I came upon an autobiography of Isaac Newton. One of the chapters in the book caught my full attention, it this chapter Isaac was discussing Law of Universal Gravitation. The Law of Universal Gravitation states that any two objects attract each other with a force to equal to the product of their masses divided by the square of their separation times a constant of proportionality. So, I checked out the book and decided that my new experiment with involve measuring G, I will be “weighing the earth”. I know what you are all thinking I am supposed to be working on a different experiment, but how can I when Isaac Newton was one of the greatest chemist and I have a chance to complete his experiment. I guess I didn't have much luck on trying to get my school work done, oh well. I think I mine as well drop out, it has been three long wasteful years here at Cambridge. I can continue my dream of becoming a chemist and physicist without a college degree.
