Why are you taking chemistry?

"Chemistry" is a hard word to define. Some chemistry textbook covers show pictures of bubbling flasks, suggesting that chemistry can be defined as "the study of how we can make things behave if we mess with it in the laboratory." Other chemistry books have pictures of huge molecules on the cover, suggesting that chemistry is defined as "the study of how we can cram atoms together to make big complicated structures." I've even seen a textbook cover that featured a multicolored squiggle. I have no idea what that says about the study of chemistry. It seems to me that if we put these two definitions of chemistry together, we get a reasonable idea of what the subject actually entails. Chemistry can be defined as using our knowledge of how matter is put together and how it interacts with other matter to solve confusing problems.
