My First February Post

I could not see well today. I don't know why... everything was blurrier than usual... blurrier than last week even. I ended up squinting at the words in the great books lecture and squinting at the numbers in the physics lecture. Today progressively got worse, and the eyesight problem was just the beginning. The physics lecture just made me afraid of the exam. Calc was annoying because the professor does the examples so fast that I don't even have time to process what is going on. German was dumb and I didn't like it, but we didn't have to turn in the homework that I didn't do, so that was good. Lunch was good but then I almost fell asleep during the great books discussion. This semester has not been a good one so far. Every day I look forward to the time when I get to sit in front of my computer and hope someone is online to talk to.

But hanging out with people in person is even better than hanging out online, and tonight I met Tian at the Starbucks on South U and we talked for a while. It was quite enjoyable and it was wonderful to get away from the depths of physics hell.

Good news! I finished my physics homework that is due tomorrow at 11p.m. and I did it almost entirely by myself.
