No, ZOL 341.  It's like BS 111 on steroids and crystal meth.  Actually, I don't know for sure if that's true, since I didn't take BS 111 down here.  I hate it slightly less now, since I found out I did pretty well on the first exam.  Considering I totally expected to fail it, I'm quite happy with that.

Ah, that's good, at least. Good work!

QuoteI assume you are talking about Physics I, and if that's the case, I think the problems in Physics II are a lot better in that regard.  If I remember correctly, there are fewer problems that require negative answers, or at least when you have problems with negative answers it's more obvious.

The calculus-based Physics I, yes (PHY 183). Ironically, I hear it's harder than the two-hundred level classes, which supposedly don't use calculus.

Still, I bet if my professor didn't plan on curving the entire class at the end of the semester, he wouldn't have as much excuse to make it harder. I really wished he took that approach instead of this one. >_<; In fact, I'm kind of entertaining the thought that I would rather be programming that "very long integer" than suffer through the morale-bombing assignments that this class has...

Yeah, the two hundred level Physics classes don't use calculus.

Not at all, but I'm working on it.

You'd think they'd be harder, then, but noooooo...

Good luck on your exams, man.

Okay, I really need to get this off my chest. The makers of Pokemon really need to get some damn good ideas back into their heads, because this is the third generation in a row they have used a fire/fighting starter. Blaziken was amusing. Don't get me started on Infernape. WTH is with this new fire/fighting starter? For heavens sake, let's not start with a fire/rock type, or a fire/ground, fire/water or something like that!!!!

I hope everyone understands that one line was sarcasm.

And there's another problem, they are fire/fighting types! Charizard is a flying, and he can kick all dem patooties to next tuesday, making him the strongest out of all the fire starters........almost.

Typhlosion owns all. Just because.


...AND I DON'T EVEN LIKE CHARIZARD! THE POSES THEY HAVE HIM IN ARE JUST DUMB LOOKING! AND THE GAMECUBE SPRITES...EW! THE HEAD WAS TOO BIG AND THE NECK WAS TOO SKINNY!

I hate Comcast for resetting my connection last Thursday when I was working on a freaking programming project from home and had to go to freaking Engineering to work in the UNIX labs.

I lol'd at your misfortune...although I shouldn't.

I am currently going through a crisis. I can't get into college yet unless I want to be paying loans for the rest of my life, and I can't get a job BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING IN THIS GOD**** TOWN.

I might be able to help you with some of that, ZV. TV Tropes. If you need a summary of a story with good explanations and stuff, GO TO THAT NOVEL'S ARTICLE! By gum junior, it helped me out during my IAH class last semester, and if you take my advice, I hope it helps you, too!

Justified double post is justified.

Now, let me get this straight. My friends go out of their way every time we see each other to borderline force me to go to a summer retreat that costs $358 (apparently, I get $75 off, though, so that's a little merciful [$283 dollars for those of you who hate to do math]), and eventually succeed, making me feel disappointed in myself in the process. No one seemed to understand (or just simply filtered out my protests and refused to care; take your pick) that it's very, very pricey and that I don't feel willing to pay for that. Plus, I just find out I need to help pay for gas. Hmm, that's, what? $293 dollars, now? Well, okay, it can't be that bad if I take along my computer and do some programming, preferably on Project Potty Seat, and hey, maybe it'll be entertaining to me enough that I can get my mind off ofOHWAITNO, I'm not allowed to bring that, either.

...Really, guys? You bug the heck out of me to get me to go somewhere that I really prefer not to go to because of money reasons; make me irritated at myself because I gave into peer pressure again; require me to take off an entire week of work in order to go; just now bring up that there's another hidden fee that I need to pay; and right after THAT, you tell me that I can't bring my tool of the trade along with me to help get my mind off of my near-buyer's remorse? REALLY!?

Okay, okay, I admit that scholarships were offered, but I feel that if I can afford the trip myself, which I can, then I should be the one paying for myself, not someone else. And I don't feel like paying that much. My refusal to accept scholarships + my great reluctance to dish out the money myself to pay for something that may or may not be worth the money considering the fact that my friends and I have been doing more-or-less the same things over the course of the semester for only a fraction of the cost == DO THE MATH, PEOPLE!

Wow, I uh...

I quit my youth group because I couldn't bring my laptop to the lock ins.

So... I can sorta understand how you feel.
