Maybe Eliot has gone a little bit crazy. Just a little bit.

That problem from Physics, the one that Baker offered money for, I almost gave up on. I took a look at the problem last week and thought, holy crap, how is this thing possible? Didn't think about it over the weekend at all, didn't want to waste time. But whatever, I pretty much wasted the 3 days anyway. Today I took a stab at it again after school & Masterminds, tried it on Cala's chalkboard because Baker was off in the chem lab or whatever.
The concept of two touching blocks was never too clear to me, it was on an AP B problem from a few weeks back and I couldn't solve that one either. On top of all this I'm wondering if a normal force was supposed to do something too. Blah.
Point is, Phys tomorrow, so I will try again. I'm pretty sure I got a little closer today to the solution. There's this thing I saw on TV, disabled people running the NYC Marathon, and one participant had this little rhyme: mile by mile, it's a trial; yard by yard, boy it's hard; inch by inch, it's a cinch. Quite inspirational.

18 is the age when I'll be a lot happier. Until then, time still sucks, and I continue to wish death to its children.
