the crunch

now is that time when the honeymoon of starting of is over and you're at about full blast into the curriculum. These are the best of times. These are the worst of times.

So we have to read Boethius for my german gen ed class, and though I'm already behind on the reading he's got a couple of interesting ideas and truths. I don't know how I feel I feel about the whole "oneness" of his neo-Platonic philosophy, but maybe that's just cuz it reminds me of the LGM's from Toy Story. My circuits class is getting better. maybe it has to do with the fact that the amont of homework I've spent on that class averages to like 10 minutes a week. but those happy go lucky tests are right around the corner. whoopi. And my scary numbers in boxes class is not very intimidating at all. It's more like a lot of cute puppies in a box, romping around.

BTW, did you hear/see that story about the baby in Brazil who was found in the river or something? WTF is wrong with these parents?!?!?!

I still am not mutual friends with diff eq, though. And thermo's getting on my nerves. and so is statics. it's kinda odd: the three classes I thought I was gonna like and the three I thought I was gonna hate have been 0% accurate so far.

so far.

My nana's in the hospital, too, so I'm naturally worried about her. It's just weird that the X-rays and the MRI's are showing no fractures of any kind, and yet she's still in a lot of pain in her lower back. She fell a couple weeks ago. Plus we found out that she fell under 100 pounds. She's always been quite short and petite- in short, very Mexican granny like- but it's still not cool. I'll keep you posted.

I need a job so mom doesn't have to get a second one to pay for these medical bills. I can do it, working and full time student-ing. I can do it. I can do it nine times.
