In Physics,
nothing is something
nothing has energy
nothing changes
nothing matters

This is why I enjoy it. Not the math part.

(for my playwrighting class, i'm writing a play where the events that occur are based on laws of physics. you should read it so i can get your input. ;)

Sure, send it over.

And yeah, that's the cool part about phsyics. Thing is, physics is ALL about that cool stuff...I mean, okay, if you're actually doing physics then you have to do some math, but that's what the mathematicians are for. A lot of really good physicists aren't that great at math (well, they're great compared to you and I, but idiots compared to actual mathematicians) - because the physicists do all the cool thinking stuff and then when they get to the math stuff they send it to the mathematicians and make them do it. The math is really peripheral. (and the stuff in your class isn't very hard either, c'mon now :-P)

P.S. All that "nothing is something" stuff is what quantum mechanics is all about...seriously, it's really fascinating stuff, you should look into it sometime. AND I just checked the schedule of classes and it doesn't look like Barrett from the LPS department is teaching this coming quarter, BUT apparently there was a quantum mechanics seminar in winter quarter, WHICH YOU TOTALLY SHOULDA TAKEN :-P.

Anyway it's amazing stuff, check it out sometime. Talk to David Grotts and I about it or something.

we always talk about it. i love it. what are you doing tonight for st. patrick's day? let's hang out!!!

[fango]

Marcum's bday at Golden Dragon, then V For Vendetta which ROCKED ALL SORTS OF AWESOME (btw fucking see it, seriously, I'm not even kidding here), then hung out a little and went home and slept cause I had work at 10. But we can have a belated St Patrick's Day another time if you wanna hang out. Gimme a call :-P

Hey you. Great job in Kiss Me, Kate last night! Also, you should totally send me your physics-based play.

[visionimpossibl]

thank you!!!! i didn't know you came to see it! i wish i could have seen you afterwards! i definitely will send you my play (it's a work in progress, and is VERY odd--i'm just warning you)!

[glamstarlette]

I would love to read your play! Robyn, I know that we don't talk nearly as much as we should, but I read everything you write -- and it makes me love qnd miss you in ways that are just plain crazy.

[visionimpossibl]

oh, krissy. how the hell are you.

[glamstarlette]

Eh, I'm mediocre, thanks. How are you?? Great, I hope!

[clashcityrocka]

geek!

that sounds awesome.

[visionimpossibl]

it's really fun and weird.

and...i am NOT a geek. i don't even bring calculators to the tests i have in my class since i don't even try on the math problems.

...okay, maybe i am a geek. maybe a nerd. ask jamie about the difference ;).

[fango]

Honestly I don't really see a difference between those terms. What I DO know is that we all have a lot more geek in us than some might want to admit.
