Today, well 3 down 1 to go. Today I ate a sub from subway for breakfast. Ham, Pepperoni, and pickles. Yum. I did OK on my entre 3 final. I wasn't able to complete it, so that sucks. Then I spent hours studying for my dynamics and OP tests. Dynamics was today. I pwnd it. 2 hour exam, finished it in 1 hour. Now I'm working on staying alive. 1 more exam. I will make it. Later.

12/8/14

First test done. 1 down 3 to go. I'm feeling confident in 2 of the 3. The 3rd is scary. I had econ for my first final. I was only able to complete 80% of it, because my professor makes tests that he intends you not to finish. After the final I worked on getting a final project done. Then I did a little studying. Then I took a much needed break. Later.

Today I locked myself in my room and studied for finals. Today it was my hardest class and easiest class. When going over the hard subject, I reached some stuff that requires the use of excel. I had a thought of "well maybe I won't need to know this on the final because I need software." I laughed for 5 minutes because that was the stupidest thing I thought in a long time. If this was my first class and first test with this professor, that would just be naive. However, this is my 3rd class with this professor and like 8th test with him. At this point it's stupid to think "he can't honestly expect us to do this by hand," because he does. I worked for like 12 hours today. Later.

Today, well I turned in the big lab. Did I tell you about how I had a major lab and I cheated sleep? Well I'm going to retell it, because I like the story.

So I had a major lab due. Big BIG project, worth like 1/5 of my grade in the class, and I was having trouble verifying what was happening. I checked and rechecked my calculations, all of them were fine. I checked the crystal ball assumptions, and they seemed fine, but I just couldn't get it to work. Well, I spent hours working on it, staying up until 4AM getting charts and compiling data. At one point, I ingested so much caffeine that I saw the 4th dimension. I couldn't really comprehend it, but I'm pretty sure I saw the 4th dimension. Well I fell asleep at about 5AM and woke up at 8AM. Luckily we didn't really learn anything in class today because I wasn't 100% there. Crazy. But I'm so glad that it's done with. The paper was over 200 pages long. We didn't hand in a report, we handed in a book. Damn. The rest of my day was good. It was innovation day at my college. This is where the design classes show off their semester long projects and try to get people to "invest" in their product using play money. I saw some good products, a couple of which I would buy if made available. Later.

I have concurred sleep. Today was meh. I did laundry because I ran out of clean clothes. I worked on my lab. I just can't get type 2 to work. So I decided to just run opquest and get that. I'm pretty sure I'm doing the opquest wrong, but it's better than nothing. I had dynamics and we badically went over stuff to review for the final. Then when  working on the write up for the lab, I had lots of caffeine to keep me going. The initial rush, I could see sound. I saw colors I didn't know existed. I was speaking in tongues. It was crazy. Now, I've settled some, but I'm still keeping it flowing because I need it. It's due tomorrow and there's still a lot of things to finish up. Later.

12/3/14

Well, I can get about half the last end of the project to work. There's going to be some BS in this report, because I can't get it to work, and I doubt I'll get it to work in 2 hours if I couldn't get it to work after 8 hours. Almost done. Had Entre, Econ, and OP. Did some stuff with senior design. After admitting almost defeat on the project, I watched Pulp Fiction. Well, only the Vincent and Jules stuff. One day I might make my own cut of Pulp Fiction with only the Vincent Jules stuff. Later.

12/2/14

Soon it will be done. About 1 more week. Today was kind of hard. I watched some senior design presentations, and that was good. I then worked for hours on homework. Oi. I then had dynamics, and that was fine. My professor finally remembered to bring his spool so we could see that if you actually pull from the bottom the spool will roll up. It was cool. I then worked some on my senior design project. Did some tests, gonna revolutionize an industry. You know, just college senior things. Then I worked on another project. Of my partners brought a 6 pack of beers to the meeting. We're not at like in a dorm or some private section of an empty campus building, we're in the middle of the lower level of the library, probably the most busy area of the library, just drinking some cold ones while working on a project. We're over 21 so it's not like it's illegal or anything, it's just a little out of the ordinary. Oh college. Later.
