Memoirs of a Mustang

Entry 104: Nothing to see here
Woke up at 9. Brunch was a bowl of pork teriyaki saute, two fruity muffins, my orange juice, chocolate milk, and an apple. Dinner was an onion chicken quesadilla, an apple and chocolate milk. My cold is still bothering me. I did some MasteringPhysics2 today. Nothing much to say. Being sick really puts a damper on my mood.

Entry 105: So cold
7:50-Four strips of bacon, tater tots and orange juice.
8:30-Physics2, the flux electric fields.
9:30-Calculus.
10:30-Materials, we examined the process of manufacturing panes of glass.
11:30-Programming.

12:45-Shredded beef on a pretzel bun, french fries, an apple, and chocolate milk.
1:30-Design.

During the afternoon, Abdel came back from foot surgery. He's in pain, and asked me to get some painkillers for him.
Dinner was chicken parmesan, an apple and chocolate milk.
My cold has shifted to stuffy nose, so improvement. But all of today I had this real bad sore throat that made it hurt to breathe outside, which was really cold.
I did laundry tonight.

WHERE'S MY SNOW?!

Entry 106: Oh, there's snow
8:50-Two chocolate chip muffins and some of my orange juice. Then I left for Statics SO FUCKING COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLD!!! Also cold.
9:30-Statics. Things were at least quiet today, although maybe everyone was just to quiet to talk over him. But the silence just emphasized how awkwardly paced the lecture was. He talked little, and left long pauses between speaking. I miss Badour.

10:30-No way I'm going to materials tuorial in this weather! I can hardly breathe outside. I'm going to residence right away.
12:30-Chicken ranchero sandwich and chocolate milk.
1:30-Yeah, I'm not going outside in THAT for a calculus tutorial that has no quiz.

4:00-Chicken adobo, apple and chocolate milk.
6:00-Physics lab, electric circuits.

It actually snowed quite a bit today. Ga figger. My cold has shifted majorly to stuffy nose stage, so I'm feeling a lot better.

Entry 107: Warm up to a radiant computer monitor
8:30-I woke up just before Physics2 started. So much for attending that class today. Breakfast was four strips of bacon and a cinnamon bon, and some of my orange juice.
9:30-Calculus.
10:30-Materials, on stress and strain.
11:30-Programming.

12:45-Bowling Over, apple and big chocolate milk.
1:30-Design, on CAD.
Afternoon-Did some MasteringEngineering. Once I finally looked at it for a good while, it actually made a lot of sense to me.

5:00-Turkey bun, apple, chocolate milk and chocolate pudding.
7:00-Programming lab. The stuff we needed to submit/show was pretty basic, and it helped that C++ bears remarkable resemblance to Java.
9:30-Abdel can barely walk due to his foot surgery, so he asked me to buy him some food. Problem was, the cafeteria people wouldn't let me do that. I had to pay out of my own card. Pissed me off so much.

Later, I finished my MasteringEngineering. I hardly have a cold anymore. It's funny, it's like my cold waxed and waned with the temperature. It's supposed to get a lot warmer over the next few days.

Entry 108: Teacher fills in, cheesecake is deep fried. Don't mix the two.
Statics was cancelled today.
9:50-Bacon, tater tots and big orange juice.
10:30-Design studio. And again the professor didn't show up. Subverted when someone else came in after about 40 minutes to fill in.

12:30-Popcorn chicken, an apple and chocolate milk.

6:30-Went to the Wave for dinner with a bunch of my floormates. I had a bacon cheeseburger, fries, Dr. Pepper and fried cheesecake. Wondrous.
9:00-Fencing. The execs say I'm getting better. I definitely feel it.

I'm going home tomorrow.

From Friday.

Entry 109: Goin'.
8:50-Cinnamon bun and big orange juice. Abdel wanted me to get him more vitamin water. He owes me $13.24.
9:30-Calculus.
10:30-Materials.
11:30-Programming.

12:50-Chicken fingers, french fries, 750mL of chocolate milk, apple and cup of blueberry cheesecake.
I decided to skip design today. Lunch went a teensy bit longer than normal, and it's not like I'd learn much anyway. Dad's picking me up today.

Entry 110: This again?!
8:30-AGAIN?! I woke up late AGAIN?! FOR FUCK'S SAKE I HAVEN'T EVEN SHOWERED!
...
wait.
8:50-Bacon and potato barrels, and big orange juice.
9:30-Calculus.
10:30-Materials.
11:30-Programming, we looked at strings.

12:40-Chicken souvlaki and chocolate milk.
1:30-Design.
2:30-I met up with my design group to plan our final design project for about an hour. It was a fun time.

5:10-Pasta and chocolate milk.
7:30-Fencing with sabres. It was fun.

If I sleep in for one more physics2 lecture, I don't know what I'll do.

From yesterday

Entry 111: Jammin'!
8:50-Breakfast, bagel with two packs of creamcheese and orange juice.
9:30-Statics.
10:30-Not going to materials tutorial.

12:30-Hot dog with cheese, apple, french fries and chocolate milk.

5:10-Peanut butter and jam sandwich (first one this year with jam!), apple, yogurt, big chocolate milk, red jello. chocolate ice cream, and a Cadbury Cream Egg.
6:00-Physics2 test, first one. I did good. Kinda screwed up on one of the big questions.

When I was getting ready to go to bed at around 11:30 Alex was in the bathroom when I was going to brush my teeth. And we just had this, like, ten minute conversation about university courses.

Entry 112: Meet up
7:50-Bagel, creamcheese, and orange juice.

3:00-I got Visual Studio 2012 from a school computer onto my laptop. I can now program with C++ anytime I want.

6:00-Chicken wings and chocolate milk. Yeah, not very much. For some reason wings are really expensive compared to everything else.
7:00-Programming lab. The latest project isn't due until next week so there wasn't really much reason to stay after the verbal "quiz" at the beginning. I left after about an hour.
10:15-Floor meeting. As usual, the crowd derailed it. Jaitra intended tonight to focus on hateful words, except everyone was too busy giggling at the silliness of the whole exercise.

I did laundry at the end of the night. Now I sleep.

Entry 113: So what happened?
8:50-Two chocolate chip muffins and big orange juice.
9:30-Statics, dull as ever.
10:30-Design studio. We met a roadblock when we found out that the problem we had decided to focus on already had a whole lot of solutions made. We're hoping to resort to modification now.

2:00-Beef flauta, french fries, an apple and chocolate milk.

6:00-Pre-made salami sandwich from the cafeteria fridge. It was real good; it had cheese and lettuce too.

9:00-Fencing. I practised evenly with both hands. I think I'm actually more comfortable with my left than my right.

No big event today.

Entry 114: Statics term test II
8:50-Two chocolate chip muffins and big orange juice.
9:30-Calculus.
10:30-Materials.
11:30-Programming.

12:45-Battered haddock, fries, an apple and chocolate milk.
1:30-Design.

6:00-Chili, bun, an apple and chocolate milk. And then some chocolate cake.
7:00-Statics term test. Just like the Autumn one, it was only two questions. I felt really good about the first one, iffy about the second.

Tomorrow I'm finally fencing on a Saturday.

Entry 115: Work week
Brunch was a chicken ciabatta, big chocolate milk and french fries. Dinner was a pulled pork burrito with way too much stuff in it, apple juice and an apple. I went for a one-hour jog after.

I've got nothing to do this weekend, which means I've got stuff to do this weekend. I have a SOTA report to do, and it feels like it's gonna be a lot of work.

Entry 116: So how about that Superbowl?
Brunch was three beef tacos, an apple, peach yogurt, chocolate milk, cheesecake and chocolate pudding. Dinner was a pre-made salami sandwich and chocolate milk.

Not much happened. Um...I wrote a 15-question online quiz for design? 13/15.

Entry 117: Oh shit I was supposed to do that.
7:45-Slept half an hour in, no breakfast for me.
8:30-Physics2, more on voltage.
9:30-Calculus review. midterm coming up.
10:30-Materials. MidtermThird coming up.
11:30-Programming.

12:45-Chicken ciabatta, french fries, apple and chocolate milk.
1:30-Design. I actually saw a group with signs out on the Concrete Playground when I was running to this class. Something about protesting fur. I felt bad for just running by, so I told myself to stop by when I was coming back. I forgot. Aww.

Dinner was a fridge salami sandwich, big orange juice, chocolate milk and some of my Vegetable Thins. I had fencing tonight, more with epees.

Entry 118: The big dinner
I keep forgetting to wear boots when going outside.
8:50-Bagel, creamcheese and big orange juice.
9:30-Statics.
10:30-Materials midterm. But it's not where the tutorials are! It's in a completely different building! Shhhhhiiiiit! I ended up being 15 minutes late for this one-hour test. Ehh, it was only 14 questions anyway.
...Holy shit.

12:45-Sausage on bun, apple, chocolate milk and a garlic bread stick. And then a small piece of chocolate cake.
Afternoon-Did some MasteringEngineering.

5:00-I so went over budget for dinner, but it was SO WORTH IT. Hamburger topped with mozza sticks and onion rings, fried chips, chocolate milk and a big brownie.
6:00-Physics2 lab, torque and moment of inertia. Why are most of these labs about stuff we already did in Physics1 instead of the electricity stuff we're doing now?

What is it with Elborn College, one of the most distant buildings on campus, being such an exam hotspot?

From yesterday
Entry 120: Something called a libeary
9:50-No statics. Breakfast was four strips of bacon, some tater tots and apple juice.
10:30-Design studio.

Lunch was grilled cheese, popcorn chicken, an apple and chocolate milk. Dinner was small due to my budget, an apple, chocolate milk and a Cup'a'Cheesecake.

9:30-Calculus.
10:30-Materials
11:30-Programming

12:45-Bacon cheeseburger, fries, apple and chocolate milk.

6:00-Chili, chocolate milk, apple, bun and a slice of blueberry pie.

9:10-Went for a jog. About half an hour in, I bumped into some floormates who invited me to some tobogganing. I had no snowpants and was wearing running shoes; this activity went about as well as you'd expect.

Entry 122-123: The weekend
Good to have that SOTA report done. I did pretty much nothing this weekend. Other than laundry tonight.

OH SHIT, I FORGOT TO DO ENTRY 119! I HARDLY REMEMBER THAT DAY AT ALL!

yo ty would you be down for rob and i to visit you some weekend at school?

Entry 124: On this day
8:10-GGGGHHHH, overslept. And I'm sick. And I might have an ear infection. And I didn't get to sleep last night until 1:40. Can't I sleep in a bit?!

8:50-Two chocolate chip muffins and one of my orange juice.
9:30-Statics. and lemme tell ya, this new guy is o-BLIVIOUS. He practically talks in a whisper even when everyone's talking. Near the end, I flat-out couldn't hear him. He has been consistently going several minutes overtime. People just started leaving at around 9:20, and he kept going. It sounded like he didn't even know classes were supposed to end at 9:20.
10:30-Materials tutorials happen here. I didn't go.

12:00-Sausage on bun with cheese, big chocolate milk, an apple and one of my yogurts.
1:30-Calculus test, integration.

5:00-Four-cheese tortellini, onion rings and chocolate milk.
6:00-Physics2 tutorial, we took a test, except it's only meant to assess what we know going into this course. Funny thing; it took about an hour, and it looked like we could just go. Abdel comes back two hour later, tells me she continued teaching after. Buh?
9:30-Did laundry.

I don't think I like Tuesdays very much.

Woah, I forgot to mention the Secret Santa present. Robin was my Secret Santa back on the night of Entry 97, but apparently my present was still on its way. On Entry 99, it finally came. It's a shirt with a few elements in a row.
Germanium (Ge)
Nitrogen (N)
Iodine (I)
Uranium (U)
Sulfur (S)
It spells GeNIUS.

Entry 126: So what's wrong with my ear?
7:50-Slept in. But not too late to get to class. No breakfast.
8:30-Physics2, capacitors.
9:30-Calculus, rotary equations.
10:30-Materials, recrystallization.
11:30-Programming.

12:45-Hot dog, french fries, one of my apples, one of my yogurts, big chocolate milk and a marshmallow brownie.
1:30-Lunch took too long, so I didn't go to design. I shaved instead. Good trade-off.

4:30-Frozen food from the fridge (it's this chicken parmesan thing and I love it), big chocolate milk and an eclair.
5:30-Visited Student Health Services to check out my ear, which has been clogged for the past two weeks and I don't know why. All the nurse suggested was that I wet it with (vegetable/baby) oil, because it seems the wax is just real dry. Huh.
7:00-Programming lab. Didn't stay too long, just did what I had to be there for and left.

Rest of the night-Worked on parts of the design write-up my team is making, and helped Abdel with Physics 2. Midterm tomorrow.

Entry 127: Physics2 midterm
9:50-Slept in past statics. Breakfast was a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch with milk, and one of my orange juice.
10:30-Design studio.

12:30-Two grilled cheese, one of my apples, one of my yogurts and big chocolate milk.

5:30-Peanut butter and jam sandwich, chocolate milk, and cola float.

7:00-Physics2 midterm. Went fine.

This is my final night here before Reading Week.
