Fun times at college.

don’t give ‘im the stick!

I have finished my last class of the semester! Now I’ve just got finals to look forward to next week, and they’re distributed pretty evenly, too. I’ve got one Monday, one Tuesday, and two Thursday, so I’ve spaced out my studying plans appropriately. It sucks that my hardest final, microcomputer organization, will [...]

why do I blog?

Trin tagged me! I’ve been seeing this question on various blogs and feeling all jealous because no one had tagged me with it yet. Yes, I am zee dork. So, I blog because I enjoy keeping a journal. I find it much easier to type up all that I’m experiencing and thinking about [...]

Harry Potter and the endocrine system

I started rereading Cujo by Stephen King the other day, but now I’m not sure I want to finish it. For those that have seen the movie, the book’s ending is different, and much sadder. I may well continue reading it because I enjoy a good scare, but the sad ending won’t be [...]

Dead Week and finals

My discrete math professor emailed us saying he wasn’t happy with the scores on our last test, so we will have a final. However, he said those with A’s in the class won’t be allowed to take the final, which makes me wonder if he’ll adjust the grades accordingly when us non-A folks take [...]

tags and tension at the barbecue

My algorithms test apparently hasn’t been posted because my professor’s in another time zone right now. Suits me fine, as I wasn’t looking forward to taking a 90-minute online test on a Sunday. He did, however, post up information as to what types of questions we’d need to be able to answer. [...]

blogs and books

I was eating leftovers of last night’s shepherd’s pie but I wasn’t paying much attention, just kind of guiding the spoon to my mouth while I read online. Then I noticed the taste, and my brain had this conversation with itself: Wait, what? What is this I’m eating? Am I eating shit?? [...]

a good discrete math test

It often seems like crappy things happen in my life but that they’re soon balanced out with very good things; the past couple of days are an example. Day before yesterday, the guy who was interested in buying the ferret emailed to say he’d changed his mind and didn’t want Frank. Yesterday, Todd [...]

duck toys and recurrence relations

I’ve been trying to work out a time with the ferret purchaser on when he can come get Frank. It was originally going to be this weekend but now he might not be able to get Frank until sometime during next week because I had plans Saturday afternoon, which is apparently when he wanted [...]

recent developments

A quick update to note: I received a response about the ferret–another Lexington person wants to buy him! Posts now show up in their entirety on the index page, so no more clicking ‘Continue reading’ if you view 3till7’s home and start reading an entry. I’m taking a quick break from homework in the library because my back’s [...]

Jello pudding and ferrets

I discovered yesterday that being able to cook ribs, cheesecake, grilled tilapia, chicken pot pie, ginger cookies, and every other food I’ve attempted and done well at does not mean that one can fix Jello pudding. I needed one pie crust to make a chicken pot pie for tonight (which turned out just fine) [...]
