Bertrand Russell is my new Feynman.

So I woke up at 8am to go to the Singletary retreat. When I got home I slept from 4pm-2am...I set my alarm to wake up in order to prepare for wild partying, but I must have just slept through it all. My lethargy is becoming alarming. The problem is that I now sleep through alarms ( Read more... )

Ok. I'm working on becoming a true idler. A loafer. A vagabond. I suppose the act of working toward this goal is pretty self-defeating. Nevertheless, I have decided that the pressure to get a job and use your time in a "productive" manner is evil. I have resolved to spend more time in idle pusuits, such as reading, eating, and updating my ( Read more... )

The bruises have made themselves visible. I have something like 15 large ones on various places of my body. I think I might be dying.

So I failed my PHY 335 final. I completely blanked out and missed a question worth 50% of the final exam (which is turn was 35% of the final grade in the class). I cried ( Read more... )

You know, I just can't live in accordance with my view of how life should be lived. I think this is because I lack the ridiculous moolah required to live life "properly ( Read more... )

My physics test kicked my ass in a very unkind sort of way. I might have made it impossible to get an A in the class. If so, I suppose it's on to preparing for work in nuclear engineering (somehow I've convinced myself nuclear engineering must be easier than physics, and that it shall be my new career path should physics fail me-or vice versa ( Read more... )

Why must the neighbors blast rap music from the hours of 11pm-4am and start again around 8am?!??! This is worse than my roommate not flushing the toilet. If I weren't so unbelieveably tired, I would be ready to draw blood.

So things have been going alright. I've gotten myself back on an insane sleep schedule that demands 2 naps of roughly 3 hours a day. One from around 9-12 and another from around 5-8. There is some leeway, but I'm pretty sure my roommate must think I'm the laziest person on the planet. But I no longer care what she thinks because she has stopped ( Read more... )

So I walked around for over an hour in an attempt to find the practice soccer field where the Society of Physics students was holding a picnic. I never made it. But I did end up with 2 bags of popcorn (which I considered to be a fine contribution to the picnic) all to myself and a very mild sunburn. It was a beautiful day though, and I'm glad I was ( Read more... )
