i love math

[buttman_strikes]

the most exciting thing has happened to me! i have found an application for that horrible linear algebra that i almost killed myself over last fall! people actually use that stuff to figure stuff out about population dynamics (ecology stuff)! man, all of my hard work and near death experience has finally been validated! don't worry about the fact that i'm not actually going to go into the field of ecology, that's not what matters. what matters is that i didn't waste a semester of life doing the most icky math for no reason in the world.

ahh...

that was the sound of satisfaction.

it might also have to do with the fact that i just ate a whole mound of food and now i'm going to pass out for a while.
