As an initial note to the people who write math and other school curricula, life does not fit into an inspirational acronym like IDEAL or THINK, so stop wasting students' time with frivolous steps like writing the problem in the form of a question, exploring different strategies, writing gourmet recipes that use the constants in the problem to measure the ingredients, etc.

That out of the way, life has been standard. I was forced into a haircut Saturday, and now I look like I'm twelve, but eh, what can ya do?

I also worked from 11 to 4:30 at the student union yesterday doing nothing but dishes. Lots and lots of dishes. There was a catering event (a big wedding, specifically) the night before, and the workers didn't get out of it until eleven at night or later, so I don't blame them for not getting any of them cleaned up, heh. That, and it afforded me an extra thirty bucks or so (I've still not gotten a paycheck yet, though. Lots of hassle with the jillions of employment forms.)

Math is really sucking. I have no clue why, but I'm somehow doing really, really bad. Probably has something to do with it being so early in the year, with so few assignments (and me not having a calculator, lol). The teacher sucks something awful, too. Hopefully I can get that patched up very soon.




EDIT:

The Professor: Well, I assume you already have a nice, comfy home computer, and everyone could probably use most of the other things on the list, so that's probably it. ^_^

Shinhooha: No bowling, no driving...

I really don't see how natural selection hasn't eliminated you by now.

ru570rz: Are you mad? Of course the original DM was good. The original DM was amazing. I just meant I needed to see the other two, not buy. (Well, not necessarily, anyway.)
