I suck at Physics

Man I am so bad at physics. My online quiz average is basically < 2/3. Physics is so interesting but this course is just designed so poorly. The course has like a crap load of students so all the lectures are powerpoint which I feel is silly. Second, the online quizzes are annoying because
A) [...]

Tetris

Within my group of friends everyone basically has their own game that they are crazy at. Tetris is my game. It is the only game I am half decent at. The only person within my group of friends who is also really good at Tetris is Ryan.

Last term though I came to learn that Wendy [...]

Philosophy: Useful or not?

Derek, Joanna, nelson and i were having a discussion about the usefulness of a philosophy degree. The three of them were pretty set that philosophy courses and a degree in philosophy were basically useless. I on the other hand think philosophy is a very important to learn about.

Anyone have any input on this matter? I [...]

Blu-ray galore

I love buying blu-ray movies. Today I woke up extra early and made my way to Future shop to pick up Star Trek in blu-ray. My main reason to get this movie was the fact that blu-ray reviews gave it a stellar review saying it was basically the greatest blu-ray movie made to date. Also [...]

I can’t really say much about the game without giving it all away. The story was [...]

The real photoroot has arrived

As many of you know my main reason for starting a blog was always with the intention of showcasing photos. Being the design impaired individual that I am I could never really design a photo blog I liked. After pestering Edward for ages he sat down and actually drew me out a layout, which I [...]

Awesome day

Today was a great day. The day started off with 3 eggo waffles for breakfast. That wasn’t too impressive but after breakfast I went to the UW bookstore to make the most of my $150 textbook grant..

So I started going through the various springer books that were on sale and settled on Problems in Analytic [...]

自由

The title of this post is Jiyuu (ãããï&frac14; or freedom in japanese. I have finally finished this hellish week. I had my concurrency midterm, a galois theory assignment and an advanced algorithms assignment. However before delving into my school work no one probably wants to read about time to first talk about Cirque Du [...]
