token break update thing
It was tough for me to let go of the lost notebook I spent so much energy filling in over the past year. Thankfully most of the drawings live on in some secondary digital form. I filled in my first page of a new Moleskin this week. Im trying to blend smooth polynomial (differentiable) lines with fractal (scale-invariant, non-differentiable) components. I'm creating noise and then challenging myself to find new ways of interpolating coherent images from it.
I should be happy with the way this past quarter went overall, but I'm also a little disappointed because it was so, so close to being much better.
QM 2 - B
Relativity - A
grad QM - B
That last B...was bullshit.
Ive made it into the clear, academically. Its nothing but the deep, interesting coursework I want from here on in (except two social science classes). I've already accomplished my goal for this year to deeply understand quantum mechanics. I'm hoping over the next school year I'll take some big strides towards understanding quantum field theory, even though that will undoubtedly take more than just one year, with everything I'm going to have on my plate.
I'm going to be doing my sufficiency (final humanities project for you non-wpiers) next quarter...we'll see how well this coexists with grad QM, partial differential equations and statistical mechanics.
