What should I do this summer?
Many of the upper classmen here have been telling me about our summer vacation. Apparently it's about 4 months long. They say that I'm going to be ridiculously bored ( Read more... ) -
The end is nigh. Rejoice with the coming work-load.
Essentially there is only 2 more weeks of school left. It feels a little strange to be almost done with 1/4 of my college life. Of course, looking at anything in fraction is a little weird, which is why I avoid it ( Read more... ) -
Photo Archive #4. Window to the World
I think I did this for an assignment on reflection. In the literal sense, that is. I have this tiny mirror that I put on my window sill to capture the sunset.
I recall that it was a little strange to adjust the focus on something so close but so far away.

Photo Archive #3. Blossoms
It's Spring! Well, kinda. The weather is getting warmer now. You should have been here to see the students on the first warm day we had. Essentially everyone was out on there respective lawns soaking up the sun. I even took my book out for an hour. Everyone got to have their E&D classes outside too. Well, not us since our teacher was in a suit for ( Read more... ) -
Photo Archive #2. Stonehenge?
This little stone marker was at Yosemite next to a river. There was still snow on the ground while we were there, in fact it seemed to have just begun to melt. This thing reminds me of Andy Goldsworthy, who makes really amazing sculptures out of only natural materials; snow, ice, dirt, sticks, leaves etc. I've always wanted to try something like ( Read more... ) -
Photo Archive. Bay Moonrise.
In an attempt to do something systematic and recurring, I'm going to try to post old photo's that I've taken with any comments I have. Could work, could last once, could suck and nobody will care (as usual). I've got a lot of old work I don't really care to look at anymore.
My room has an excellent view. It surprises everyone who has ever seen one ( Read more... ) -
Systematic Recording of the Permutations of the Vertexes of a Cube... of The Day.
Do you want to gain intimate knowledge of a cube? Well, that's what I just spent the past hour doing. I'm not even done with this assignment. I just had to take a break after that.
OK. Take a cube. Number it's vertexes (corners) 1-8. Now imagine all the way that you can rotate the cube so that any vertex ends up in another's spot (or stays in the ( Read more... ) -
Sore and a bit disappointed.
I came out of the math department yesterday and saw Eric and some other people doing a little parkour. I joined in as it was the sunniest day we've had since last fall. Now my arms ache from pulling myself up stuff. At least it was nice and warm today too ( Read more... ) -
Just classes and things.
We have to pick classes in only a few days which irritates me because I feel so rushed. At least I've got most of my schedule worked out. I am a little intimidated at taking two math classes at once, one of which is a prerequisite to the other. One of them is Cryptography which just sounds plain cool. Both Crypto and Linear Algebra are taught by ( Read more... ) -
Spiral
I had such a terrible night. It only really takes on little thing to throw me into a downward spiral. The rest happens mostly internally, especially when people around me don't notice. I feel like they don't care.
I need one of these right now:
