I got 100% on my thermodynamics midterm this week. I think this is the first time I've ever gotten a perfect score on a physics test, certainly the first time in an upper division course.

I now am throughly sore, but it was a blast and I crave another game. That was followed by a party of party-like proportions (like I said, a bit hazy).
