Math techer hates me, I tell him i dident understand the quiz this week ( i missed two days of class, and missed the review) I dident enen know what i was doing, i just asked him to explane a sample probem, just to set my mind on task, he he said i should know this (and i was out sick two weeks ago when he started it, yet he still wont explane to me whats going on) He looked at my paper and, right infount of my peers said i failed. He has also failed me for using pen on homework.

 

I fricken hate him, Luckly i dont have to pass his class to graduate.

 

but on the other hand i passed my AP Physics test today 100%!

Lol haven't heard that in ages...Thought you were linking to a blues song.

 

I have a lot of blues favorites, but this cover is up there:

 

And the original I like even more, but many of you will likely not:

Differential equations... in "nice" terms "related rates" E.G. if you walk X speed on grass and Y speed on pavement and you need to walk through the grass and along the pavement to get to the bus stop, at what angle and how far should you walk in the grass and how far and at what angle on the pavement in order to get to the bus stop most quickly. Assuming the it is 100 yards ("vertically"on a cartesian plane, (Y axis)) to the bus stop, you have a 10 yards (laterally on a cartesian plane (x axis)) wide patch of grass and a 1 yard (laterally on a cartesian plane, (X axis)) wide side walk.

 

OH, my personal favorite in the realm of differential equations: optimization. I.E. you have an equalateral triangular bottom brownie pan that needs to have a volume of X cm^3, What are the optimum dimensions(dementians!) of the pan to use the least amount of stainless steel on each pan assuming a uniform thickness for the walls and the bottom. Only the problems usually start out more harmlessly: You are a company that manufactures baking dishes for retail...

I was supposed to hang out with two of my friends today, but somehow BOTH OF EM got sick. God wants my life to be boring :/. The MPAG shoot on Saturday was super fun though, so I guess I shouldn't complain. Plus I have some good plans for the coming weekend. I guess it's just this whole thesis depression thing kicking in again. Damn I don't wanna write it.

I can tell from halfway around the world that you don't have the swinve flu. Have fun figuring out why.

PGF,

 

What kind of reply is that? Antibiotics are given for secondary infections.

Posted

I think he gave me the antibiotic, becouse of my ears blocked(always is when i get sick) its Azthromycin. And the inhalers are for my Brochidus(Sp?)

 

On another noat, Its freaking Hot!(or atleast it feels that way) last time i took my tempiture, it was 100.8F >.< Nothing like being sick.

 

So im out of school/work for Another day! Im realy running out of things to do.

Twotails...I eventually got up to 103.9. I just drank tea while lying down in the shower all day...it was nice. Play a video game, it'll get the pulse going, without having to go outside. Or come down and visit me; I've already had it, and it'd be only like 5-6 hours to get here.

It's Bronchitis, unless you have a plugged nose, then it is bronkidus.(If you are cockney, it is brownkitis from what I have heard...)

 

What is the emoticon ">.<" ?? Is it a smiley or something????

 

On a more depressing note, I was attempting to get let off early on friday, so I could go to San Diego to see my buddy gradutate MCRD, and see his and my families... but that ain't gonna happen :(

Mr.Vista just royally screwed me up, my computer has been malfunctiomimgfor a week now but today it just went ape shit on me...

First it wouldn't turn on the it started showing a whole bunch of colors/symbols...

Pretty pissed, I had a lot of data on that P.O.S. and I'm going to have to import it onto my back up PC for now.

 

On the random side of things, anyone tried the Starbucks VIA Ready Brew? Best instant coffee I've ever had, not to mention I now have like 20 free coffee coupons!

Funny...my Mac seems to be working just fine. Still. For 20+ years. :lol:

They don't make calculators like they used to huh? Solar powered? ;)

Fuck Vista. Get Windows 7 - I've been running it for months with no issue whatsoever.... which is more than I can say for Snow Leopard, which has successfully killed every mac it's been installed on at the studio where I work. Old profiles get deleted, printer drivers not supported, horrible stability issues, the list goes on...

Our first windows computer still works too. It' 8 MB hard drive glory, and 5 1/4" floppy drive are still rocking on.

I haven't actually drank any, but I did use it as a marinade base for some deer last week. Seemed to work as well as regular coffee.

So.... I really like physics. But I don't know if I LOVE it. And 7 years requires LOVE! I really can't decide whether I want to go for a PhD. So far I'm looking at Michigan Tech and Univ. of Teledo for PhD programs (Maybe UofM, but don't know if my grades are good enough), and Oakland University if I just want a Masters (which can apparently be done in only 3 semesters!)

 

The mere fact that I'm depressed in thinking about my future makes me think that going for a PhD is not in my best interest. If it were, I'd be excited, right?

OU is local...think of the savings... plus my wife works there...maybe we can fix yer grades up ;{)

True, and cool that your wife works at OU. Of course that also means another 1.5 years of living with my parents! I'm going to be an old man before I finally move out lol. I guess that's OK though, they don't seem to mind.

 

With science PhDs, Room, Board & tuition is generally paid for in return for the research and Teaching assistant/grading work that one does. But of course, that's still the better part of a decade without a steady source of income.

 

I'm thinking of at least starting off at OU this Winter (after the holidays), assuming I haven't found a decent job by then. That way I can stay on my parents' health insurance, and get an "early" start to grad school. After that semester I can decide for sure where I want to go/ what I want to do, or just stay & finish a masters at OU. Which might be the way to go, because I just don't feel like a career student. Rather start making money so I can pay my parents back what I owe them!
