Semester is almost over. I'm glad about this, not that I want to be done with my classes just I don't want to worry about them anymore. Which will last about 1.5 weeks because summer is calling for chemistry 2 to be taken. I'll need to brush up a lot on chem. It'll probably be easier now that I'm more learned.
I've been noticing that a lot lately while in the mathlab. When I was in physics 1 I encountered all these problems and I spent hours solving them. Now I go to help students with the same problems and I can solve any of them without any effort at all.
I'll show you an example about my new equation build skills. By emperical observation:
*points out*
Before college: Matthew somewhat savy, but rather cumbersome and dull.
3 years into college: Matthew quite savy, and rather sharp.
Equation: Person + highschool (american) = stupid and about as sharp as an apple.
Person + college + hardwork = more of a honed edge. As sharp as, say, a dull knife. Dull knife because it's possible to be much sharper.
Apply the logic, and do an experiment before argueing!
Bringing me to another point. America is stupid. Worst education system in the world per standard of living. Pappy has a book with the title something like why american's can't read, write, or add, yet still feel good about themselves. The feeling good about themselves is exactly why I sometimes get a very bad feeling aboiut helping people in the mathlab with their math. All I really do sometimes is sovle their problem, walk away, and give them a nice feeling inside. I'm disabling them the greif and inner torment which forces people, as I'm always, to strive to manipulate their brian into a problem solving and understanding machine. If you can be faced with a problem and be able to think effectly, prehaps not analyticly, you're just usless dead weight to society, to yourself, and to anyone you interact with! College isn't for getting drunk every weekend it's to teach one dissiplan and to be able to think!
Surfing is like a garbage truck for the brain. Cleans and clears it of trash and muck. It's also great exercise.
Hawaii this summer if it costs less than 500 dollars. If'nt maybe over christmas of next summer.
If America is outsourcing so many jobs to give work to the stupid people in other countries, then what the hell are the stupid american's doing? Not working in factories! They're all in college annoying me and trying to feel good about themselves.
