18 fucking hours of "werk werk werk ( Read more... )

didn't think it was possible, but i'm almost burnt out for the semester. or maybe it's just that 3 out of 4 classes i'm currently taking suck.

woke up at 9 am. went to do daily engineering/lab/hw/whatever else crap at 10 am. got home at 3:30 am. in 5 hours, i'll do it all over again.

lab 8 hours a day, 7 days a week has left me jaded.

i can't believe i wrote a 30 page lab report single spaced. actually i haven't used double spaced formatting in quite a while now which i'm going to have to say is 'fuck you high school english, no one uses double spaced/1-inch margins in lab reports.' (nicer looking reports margins > 1 inch). the sad part is that there are a lot more reports to

it is currently very hot right now. it's not southern california hot, but it seems that way because none of these houses/building have air conditioning. actually scratch that. it is southern california hot. shit, didn't realize it was in the 90s ( Read more... )

Lagrange Multipliers
Schrodinger's Equation
Fourier/Laplace/Z Transforms
Convolution
Pole-Zero Analysis
Deal-Grove Model
Error Function
Gaussian Beams
Diffraction/Interference
Sign Conventions in Optics

there should be a lot more but i can't think of them right now.

bwahahaha. i spent 5 hours trying to meet the commmon mode rejection ratio of 80 dB on my op-amp project. god it's so hard trying to get the last 2 dB. the only regret i have is that i didn't spend that time doing homework.

things to do:

hologram research paper
op-amp design with 65nm MOSFETs (very fucking hard, considering industry came out with 45nm technology pretty recently)
2 formal lab reports
2 network simulation projects
1 more midterm
4 finals

well, i'm boned for the next month or so.

FUCK. I just spent 3 hours simulating a circuit that won't fucking agree with me. WHAT THE FUCK. FUCK YOU SPICE.
