...would be a good description of my perspective right now. When school started last week, I was expecting a few reading assignments, a few neat little homework problems to kind of get the ball rolling, you know? Instead I get plastered with TOUGH AS HELL Environmental Engineering crap, and lenghty Strength of Materials marathons including one problem which covered 3 pages of calculations and substitutions (doesn't help that the questions are horribly worded. In a $170 book.). The first two assignments I handed in today each covered 10 pages of work, easily. I feel a bit like a lone soldier, bravely crawling forward and determined to raise the flag one last time before expiring. But I'd be fibbing if I didn't say that I enjoyed it a bit. The focus, the concentration, the purposeful mindset necessary to get through just one...more...question. Or maybe I've just been in school a bit too long
Anyway, my two cents' worth for the day. Oh, and for those who care, I have an account at Photobucket now, under hiberna_rex. Just a few pictures thus far, but I'm intending to add more. Hope life is being good to the rest of y'all. Peace!
