Yesterday

Let me tell you the story of excitement of yesterday. It’s not that exciting, especially not for you, the reader, but that’s beside the point.

I woke up and went to class at 11:00. I only got about 7 hours of sleep the night before though on account of the LAN on Saturday that kept me up to 7:30 am and messed up my sleep schedule. It wasn’t too bad though because I forced myself to get out of bed by 1. My roommate stayed asleep until 6, and had to pull an all nighter to get back to regular sleeping. That worked out ok for him though, so whatever.

Anyway, I went to class and check my e-mail because I’m a bit early and I get an interesting piece of information. My meeting with the professor I’m reading The Physiology of Excitable Cells with is moved back to today, which last night was the only day it couldn’t possibly be. This kinda sucks because I hadn’t done the reading yet, on account of up until Sunday I thought we were settled on meeting on Friday. So I had 3 hours and 40 minutes to read a chapter of this heavy book, 3 hours of which I was going to spend in class.

The next e-mail said Calculus was cancelled. So that was fortuitous. No math meant only 2 hours of my reading time would be spent in class. I had a glimmer of hope.

At this point my CS professor arrived and I spent my time making up sorting algorithms. At the end of class he told me, upon me asking, that I should submit any changes to the program that had been due Friday that I’d made over the weekend. I had to do it by 4:30 though, which meant I’d have to get all of that stuff together within an hour of being done with my meeting with the book professor, assuming we didn’t run long as we typically do.

I didn’t have time to worry about that though. I had to read. I didn’t even leave the CS lab, I just started reading. I read furiously, and almost finished the chapter in 35 minutes… I was looking at the clock which caused me to pause and think, and upon thought realized that the stuff I was reading had little to do with what the chapter I was supposed to be reading was about. I checked and I was in fact reading the chapter after the one I was supposed to be reading. Being the well adjusted guy I am, and just slapped my forehead and started up my furious reading again.

Before I got very far I was interrupted by a class coming into the CS lab. I checked my e-mail before I left to find that I was expected to attend an Activities Council meeting to discuss the funds I had requested, 3:30. I thought I wasn’t going to have to go to the meeting because they hadn’t e-mailed me over the weekend, and at the time I submitted my proposal, I thought I would be able to go, since my physiology meeting was going to be on Friday. As it was I had to find a representative to go. So I IM’d Keston and Kait, but didn’t get a response in five seconds so I decided to worry about it later.

I left the CS lab and went to where my Calculus class would have been meeting to have a quiet place to finish the chapter. I finished in with 45 minutes until my cog neuro class, so I headed back to the CS lab.

There I got all my updated program stuff together and printed, and got Keston to go to the Activities Council meeting. Actually, got Kait to get Keston to go. This took about 40 minutes so I had to rush to cog neuro class.

My cog neuro professor was late, so I spent the time reading the text that went with the figures in that chapter I had so hastily read.

Cog neuro happened, and then my meeting with physiology guy. Both went swimmingly well. I ate some chocolate.

After my meeting with the physiology guy, which got out promptly at 4, I went to the Registrar’s office, just to check, since they close at 3:30, on my way to pick up a check request form to get reimbursed for club spending. By some strange miracle the registrars were still working, so I’m officially registered for all those classes I talked about in my last update.

I then went and got my check request form and headed back home. Once home I burned a CD with the program I needed to turn in in 15 minutes, and talked to Kait. I found out she wanted some cake pans she’d left at my place forever, but that she didn’t want them for about thirty minutes so I had to preoccupy myself.

So I took the pans, and my books, down to the place where they keep our mail. I checked my mail, and got some candy (not the Easter candy mom, they close the mail package receiving thing at 4, so that’s still my to-do list) and did my cog neuro reading that will be over what we’re covering on Wednesday.

Then I filled out my check request form, turned it in to the ASLC people, and went to Kait’s. I gave her her cake pans and made a sandwich. Everything done by 5:30. I’ve got no homework to speak of, and no chores. It was pretty sweet. I was going to update the blog then, but my computer was difficult to reach, so I’ve waited until now.

I cut my left pointer finger yesterday when I was preparing strawberries for consumption and yet I still managed to type this huge thing. I’m some sort of warrior class nerd, I guess.

Hecatomb ftw.

This just in, one brother killed another in a fight they got into over a video game down in Nagasaki where the fellas chew tobacci and the women willi wakki woo.
