10:30-FunBEE, finished up our talk on macromolecules and moved on to enzymes.

3:30-Checked out the career fair happening today. It was cool. Found a bunch of companies that hire engineering students. Makes me feel hopeful.

7:00-Dinner, leftover frozen pizza, one of Haley's bell peppers and milk. Not hungry enough for pasta.

Hey, CWC tomorrow!

12:30-Organic, had a quiz. Went well.
1:10-So I'm running back home, and these girls are in a Monster truck, handing out free Monster drinks to everyone that walks by. I took one, and it tasted really good. I checked the ingredients.

The drink contained 6X the daily recommended dose of vitamin B12.

4:30-First meeting of the Creative Writing Club. It was lots of fun. It's a very casual atmosphere. We spent the hour and a half mostly introducing ourselves and railing on fanfiction.

8:00-Dinner, leftover frozen pizza, bow-tie pasta, a carrot and milk.

Entry 018: Western Association of Role-Players
9:30-Breakfast was Honey-Nut Cheerios and orange juice.
10:30-So I'm on my way to campus for WARP and I see crowds of students in purple walking around. Then I remember that today is Homecoming. That's why.
11:00-IntroCon! I signed up for two bi-weekly tabletop games: Mages and Nature's Revenge. The first is pretty obvious, but Nature's Revenge has you playing an animal. I wanna be a snake.

12:00-I went to the character creation workshop. We started by discussing the basics of Pathfinder (it's like D&D). We made a few quick character sheets as a group.
2:00-Lunch, Subway.
3:00-We went through a very short narrative typical to Tabletop RPGs. It was a lot of fun. I made my character into a disgruntled palace guard trying to unwind at the pub.
4:00-Someone brought in this board game based on drinking in an inn. That was fun too.
5:00-This club feels good. I'm looking forward to more of it.

Lunch was a peanut-butter sandwich, cheddar cheese, no-name cheddar-Ritz, an apple and milk.

7:30-Breakfast was Honey-Nut Cheerios and orange juice.

11:30-FunBEE.

12:30-I wanted some candy from a vending machine, but the coins that went in weren't counted. I push the change button to get them out, and nothing happens. The machine ate my money! I am so peeved.
1:30-Communications.
2:30-Organic lab. Sort of. See, the lab we had last week was scheduled to go until this week, but there wasn't really anything to do. We were all done within an hour.

4:20-Marsha stopped by. I paid my rent.
7:30-Went to the store to buy two bags of milk and cola. Turns out two bags of milk are really heavy and should not be carried over long distances.
9:30-Dinner was tomato pasta with a sausage and milk. The pasta was noticeably undercooked. Need to cook it longer next time. The sausage was fine though.

Less than an hour left of September.

September Groceries
$65.

Entry 021: Routine
7:30-Breakfast was Honey-Nut Cheerios and orange juice.
8:30-Organic. I think it goes without saying from now on that this class is as cringe as they come.
10:30-Processes. This is an interesting course. The concepts aren't that difficult, but each question is huge and challenging and getting one done is so rewarding. It's fun.

11:50-Class ended early, so I was able to run home and make some lunch, a peanut-butter sandwich, cheddar cheese, no-name cheddar-Ritz, an apple and milk.
2:30-FunBEE lab. We looked through microscopes. Not very fun. Microscopes never are.

7:00-Dinner was tomato pasta with a sausage and milk. NONONO HALEY'S STUFF IS ON THE MINI-OVEN! Got it off just in time. Her book was warm.

Gotta buy some groceries soon. Not doing the walking thing again.

Entry 022: Sign-ups
7:30-Breakfast was Honey-Nut Cheerios and orange juice.
8:30-Calculus.
9:30-Processes tutorial. Again, not much happened. It was mostly just a work period where we go to ask questions regarding our assignments. I went home early.

11:00-Lunch, a peanut-butter sandwich, cheddar cheese, no-name cheddar-Ritz, an apple and milk.
12:30-Communications. I think it goes without saying from now on that this class is as good as they get. And we got let out early. Sign-ups for presentations began this week. I volunteered, so I have a presentation to make next tutorial.

9:30-Dinner was tomato pasta with a sausage and milk.

1:00-Lunch, a peanut-butter sandwich, cheddar cheese, leftover PCKD, an apple and milk.
5:00-Dinner was tomato pasta with a sausage and milk.

10:00-Haley says that Marsha is planning on putting Kitty in the pound. Apparently he pees too much. This sucks.

7:30-Breakfast was toast and orange juice.
8:30-Calculus. More on non-homogeneous differential equations.
9:30-Thermodynamics.
10:30-My very first APPLMATH2411 test. It went good. And I had time left over that I could go home for lunch before my next class.

11:30-Lunch, a peanut-butter sandwich, cheddar cheese, leftover PCKD, an apple and milk.
12:30-Organic. He asked us how to draw isobutane during an example. Not to test us; because he didn't know.

6:00-Walked to Fresh Co. to buy some groceries. I felt like splurging, so I bought some yogurt. Which I had with dinner tonight.
8:00-Dinner, pasta with a sausage and milk.

I'm thinking of baking some peanut-butter cookies.

How's your new place, Tyler? Are you enjoying it? Is it close to school? You got everything you need there essentially?

Yes. It's right above a salon, and a 10-minute jog from the grocery store. I can run to school in half an hour, and the neighbourhood is pretty.

Entry 025: Say Hello to the Tin Man
Breakfast was creamcheese (need to get rid of it) toast and orange juice. Lunch, a peanut-butter sandwich, cheddar cheese, Ritz, a yogurt, an apple and milk.

So today I'm walking through Wester campus, looking for King's Library so that I can return a book of Haley's because she asked me to because she's away for the weekend. And all of a sudden, I see someone in a suit of armour, just walking outside. I wave, they wave back. And then I see them a second time later.

8:00-Dinner was my first ever self-cooked hamburger with bow-tie pasta, a carrot and milk. The burger was good.

LOL, thats London for yah. You shoulda found out were he got the armor

Entry 026: Couch Farce
Breakfast was toast and orange juice. Lunch, a peanut-butter sandwich, cheddar cheese, Ritz, a yogurt, an apple and milk.

Marsha and some friends came by to take one of our sets of couches to the dump. Now there's lots of space in the living room. Now I don't know what to do with it all.

I went to the store to buy chocolate syrup and bow-tie pasta. Could only find sundae syrup. Still didn't see any bow-ties.

Dinner was my first ever self-cooked chicken breast with bow-tie pasta, a carrot and milk. The chicken was good.

Entry 027: Anybody Want this Apple?
7:30-Breakfast was toast and orange juice.
8:30-Calculus. During the summer, when I was registering for courses, I noticed that this course required completion of Linear Algebra (Applemath) from last year. At first I didn't understand. But solving second-order differential equations actually involves a fair amount of linear algebra.
9:30-Thermodynamics. The tutorial times and lecture times were swapped around this week.
10:30-Processes. This course is getting really cool. We're on to elemental balances, and guess what? More Applemath. I didn't do real well in that course, but the material was interesting.
11:30-FunBEE. This recent unit is all about enzymes, and there's a lot of new material for me.

12:30-Lunch, a peanut-butter sandwich, cheddar cheese, Ritz, a yogurt, an apple and milk. Saw my old floormate Robin again today. I keep seeing her when I'm around the Spencer Engineering Building, and she's not even in engineering (her boyfriend has a class in that building).
1:30-Communications. We analysed and critiqued paragraphs. This man can make anything fun.
2:30-This organic lab involved even less work than the last one. There's hardly a point to doing it. It only went for an hour. This is ridiculous.

Dinner was a cheeseburger, PCKD, a carrot and milk.

Entry 028: He is Error
7:30-Breakfast was Honey-Nut Cheerios and orange juice.
8:30-Organic. You know what happened today? The professor made an error on one of his slides, and spent about 10 minutes trying to correct it. It is infuriating.
10:30-Processes. We finished up on chemical balances and moved on to energy balances.

12:00-Lunch, a peanut-butter sandwich, cheddar cheese, Ritz, a yogurt, an apple and milk.
1:30-Thermodynamics (tutorial).
2:30-FunBEE lab. This may be my least favourite time of the week. No scratch that; this is definitely my least favourite time of the week. It's too crowded to do anything

Dinner was a cheeseburger, leftover PCKD, a carrot and milk.

Entry 029: My First Presentation
7:30-Breakfast was Honey-Nut Cheerios and orange juice.

No Processes tutorial, so I stayed home to prepare for my presentation today. Lunch was a peanut-butter sandwich, cheddar cheese, Ritz, a yogurt, an apple and milk.
12:30-Communications tutorial. Some of us gave our first presentation of the course, a process description of just about anything. I chose protein synthesis. We were told to wear formal attire. I have these nice pants, but they're too big and I don't have a belt here yet. The obvious solution is to wear two pairs of pants together. Well it kept my nice pants up.

Dinner was a cheeseburger, leftover PCKD, a carrot and milk.

Entry 030: FunBEE Quiz
7:30-Breakfast was Honey-Nut Cheerios and orange juice.
8:30-Thermodynamics.
10:30-FunBEE quiz (I don't think it actually counts for anything. The marking scheme on the syllabus doesn't mention any tests). The professor wanted to evaluate it ourselves. Why? It was a terrible idea. It didn't even go well for a self-evaluation. It was just terrible.

1:00-Lunch was a peanut-butter sandwich, cheddar cheese, Ritz, a yogurt, and an apple.

Dinner was a cheeseburger, leftover PCKD, a carrot and milk.
Did some laundry tonight. I keep waiting until I completely run out of clothes whenever I wash, as if I'm still paying every single time.

6:00-CWC. There was fewer people than usual. I mentioned Neo, and posted the Design Notes on their Facebook group. There's a Social on Friday.
9:30-Dinner was a cheeseburger, bow-tie pasta and a carrot, with milk.

My first midterm is tomorrow morning. It's getting heated up in here. Because it's Thermodynamics. Ho ho.

Entry 034: Thermodynamics Midterm
7:30-Breakfast was a wheat bagel and orange juice.
8:30-Thermodynamics midterm. All the way in Elborn College, by the way. It went well. Not nearly as much math as I was anticipating.
10:30-FunBEE. Most of the class is just now leaving the midterm and is at least 10 minutes away. Who's idea was this?

1:30-Lunch was a peanut butter sandwich, cheddar cheese, Ritz, a yogurt, an apple and milk.

7:30-Dinner was a chicken breast and PCKD, with milk. I also started some laundry before I left for
9:00-Fencing. The meetings have been moved around. Thursday nights are now epee, Saturday afternoons are now sabre and Monday nights are foil.

It was nice to get back into fencing. There's a bunch of new people. Hopefully they stick around.
