I'm loving Mechanical Engineering so far. It's great. Basically every class I take is crazy-interesting. There's just one small problem. Basically every class I take is crazy-difficult. I certainly couldn't imagine switching majors though. Just about nothing seems like it would fit with what interests me. Also, when I think about possible jobs in ( Read more... )

This morning I spent probably an hour cleaning my car. Windows, vacuum, interior, tires, the whole deal. It was good, managed to keep the water spots to a minimum and the car was looking spiffy. So I go driving and a few bugs hit the windshield. Oh well. Hey, look at that, some mud splattered along the side kicked up by my tires. I'll just ( Read more... )

Most anti-climactic yet awesome game ever. At least the drunks behind us left after the 15th.

Coupled with the 3 red cards in the USA vs Italy game today and it was a very interesting day for sports indeed.

Yes, grades. Spring quarter was by far the hardest quarter I've ever had. A few too many units in a few too many technical classes. Halfway through I seriously had a good chance of failing at least one class. My thermodynamics class had an average of 49% on the first midterm. I managed a 57 on that, but still an F. Anywho, somehow in the end ( Read more... )
