Feliz Navidad! I've had a terrible case of the sick lately and as of now, I'm writing from my bed. Christmas was good, I love seeing family... and it's raining? But anyways, I'm good. Received my grades and junk. I'm holding out at a 3.5, and just missed the deans list by a tenth of a point. Damn you Greenes', Div, and all the other last minute  ( Read more... )

So so so. Finals week has come and pretty much passed. I only have one more final and that's for my Art history class. All i have to say is, Japanese was fucking tough, and I'm fucking sick of dumb computational calculus problems. I've spent the last 3 years studying math, yes, I started at algebra and trig  in college and now have finally ( Read more... )

For example, a question asked for the determinate of A when you're given A^2 (where A is a 3X3 matrix). It works out that the product of the determinate is the determinate of the ( Read more... )

Nights like these i enjoy. You can never be to lonely. There's always a reason to smile. Turning off the lights and listening to the rain fall outside is one of my favorite pastimes. I remember as a kid always enjoying a good thunderstorm. It makes my house cozy again. Like the cozy I felt when i was eight, always looking forward to snuggling up in ( Read more... )

School is nuts.
I'll switch Japanese with math any day of the week.
Japanese is fucking tough as shit.
Great study sessions at Oakland.

Fucking carnivals every week, it's weird as hell.
