One Smore Into The Breech

My mother is sitting on the other side of the room, trying to figure out how to save pictures from my sister's wedding last summer on her computer. I guess I know what I sound like when I curse at my computer now . . .

So yeah, I apologize for the lack of posts over the last month plus. Things got a bit . . . hectic.

The scores on my mid terms ranged from slightly below average to the ass end of the bell curve.

I had two enormous projects I had to complete after that. One was a presentation on gas absorption and the other was a numerical simulation of a multi-component reactive mass transport problem.

Then, it was time for finals. Those were more fun than you could possibly imagine.

In the end I managed to squeak by with an A- in both Thermodynamics and Fluids and a B in Mass Transfer and Mathematics and a total cumulative average for the term of 3.35. Only 0.1 point above the minimum required to keep me off of academic probation.

Blah blah, blah blah blah.

I'm sick of talking about graduate school.

So let's talk about the weather instead. How is it down there? Windy, rainy and blah here?

Or... are you down there? Are you sideways from me rather?

What's your New Years plans like? And why are you sticking smores down your breeches? That's just wrong, Aaron.

for a program that has a strong basis in mathematics i'm vaguely suprised that a little over 3/4 of the grade scale falls into a range of failing. wouldn't it make more sense to say 1 and below is failing, 2 and below is academic probation and 3 and below is passing? how about you see about changing that for me. :-)

Congrats on making it!
