Great. Need to redo my thermodynamics homework. Ok, first time around, I got the procedure right, but forgot about atmospheric pressure. Coach also said that the process of integration worked out, but instead of using "dx" I should be using "dV"...which is impossible when you don't know what the original volume is.
So I redo it. Excellent. All good. Then I realize instead of putting in atmospheric pressure, I added in the total amount of pressure the gas is under [atmospheric, plus the piston, etc.]. So now I have some insanely high atmospheric pressure. So I have to go back and change the numbers to the right ones. Way to go, me. Here's the rest of my day. Let's avoid defeat in detail, k?: 1. Fix thermodynamics homework 2. Do cognitive thinking reading [This class rocks! With a little more practice I'll be able to memorize anything.] 3. GO LIFTING [didn't go yesterday because of a project meeting]. Today is leg day. With pull ups. Awesome. 4. Read ahead in thermo book [not much, just a little to get a feel for the new chapter]. 5. Read the books on D-Day and the turning of the tide. 6. Go out and socialize. Don't stay in the apartment all fricking day [once work is done]. Part of the problem is that you just sit on your ass all day. If you didn't, you might not have a problem at all. And, no, Tycho, playing Halo multiplayer on Blood Gultch does NOT count as going out!!! [FUCK!] Oh right, forgot to put eating in there somewhere, and showering. Need get stuff done. Good bye.
