No one probably reads this anymore, but I actually don't care too much, so here goes. Cead mile failte.

Today I was to work and not relax until the work was done, but I slacked off for much of the day. Go me.

Thermofluids is going ok, though this new homework assignment seems to be massive (analyzing a power plant of our own creation)...though it will get much more involved once we have to design one from the bottom up.

History involves far too much reading, though I've kept up with it so far. Plastics is just a damned pain because the homework is lengthy and there is far too much of it.

Haven't been running due to the cold. Nor have I been lifting, as I haven't had the time. If I stopped screwing around until the end of the day (read after 10-11 PM), I'd have time to improve my physical condition. I have half a mind to go talk to the professional fighter (UFC quality) I know and say, "Pedro, I want you to make me into a fucking machine. I want you to make it so I can be thrown through hell and high water and be begging for more." He could probably make me tougher than nails, steel, or however that saying goes by spring or so. And stronger, as well as having a shit ton of endurance to boot.

Possibly going to an archery range at some point next week. We'll see. Depends on how much designing and other kinds of homework I have.

Things seem to be flying by. Plastics exam Tuesday, which I'm going to most likely fail due to the massive amount of pretty complicated material it is going to cover. To make it worse, it is multiple choice. Multiple choice is great for history and stuff like that, but in engineering it ends up being: (a) 2.99843, (b) 2.99842, (c) 2.99844, (d) 2.998425, so on and so forth. So they really, really, really suck...probably more than a Hoover. And they suck pretty badly.

One thing I can't wait for is for all the leaves to finish falling...then I'll be able to walk to the top of Bancroft Hill and look out from Bancroft Tower and see all of Worcester and the surrounding cities. Plus some time to spend in Higgins Gardens.

By the way, Chris, if you catch this, I think I'm qualified to teach/be councilor for the Space Exploration badge, as well as for a good portion/most of the Metalworking badge, and would most likely be able to do so over Christmas break. Not sure what my schedule would be like, but if Mr. J. wants, I think I'll have the time to do so.

Good night all. I have to be up far too early to finish up a project, and then start looking for sources for my paper for thermofluid design. Fun stuff.

I think I broke my finger.
