Summer Is Officially Over!

It's September 7th and Summer is now over. In 12 hours, I'll be in my Physics class, learning and reviewing old stuff. Unfortunately, it won't be "review" for me. I have to go into my nerd mode again, kind of like last year. There's nothing much left to say, but there's school tomorrow and I'm definitely not excited. Ryerson here I come.

Putting Edge / Hannah Montana Is The Bomb!

Yesterday I finally got to spend some time with my girlfriend. So, while waiting for her to get home, I waited on her porch and hacked into 2 peoples' networks so I could use their WiFi. After spending some time watching G4 Tech TV [!!!!!] we went to AMC. After deciding not to watch a movie, we ate Demetre's even though I'm broke. After eating my delicious crepe and after finishing off Nikki's milkshake-thing we decided to go to Putting Edge. There were no movies that we felt like watching - not even Fast and Furious - so we decided to go putting instead. On a side note, the last time I went to Putting Edge was for my 10th or 11th birthday party (according to my knowledge). In addition to me applying there, we had a great time  - even though Nikki lost her glowing bracelet. We'll probably be visiting that place more often because it's cheaper than a movie. That was my Putting Edge experience for the night. I really do hope that I get the job. $10.00 an hour would mean that (according my availability) I could have a PS3 in just a week of working. How bomb would that be?

Today, on the other hand, I've been extremely bored. Nothing new / fascinating to blog about and I'm not really in the school work mood. I have a Calculus test on Monday and a Physics Lab due on Tuesday and a Physics Test on Wednesday. It may be nothing compared to studying for those University exams, but I'm just saying. I woke up quite early this morning because I had to go to my dentist appointment. After bleeding on numerous occasions, it was over. I've been home for the past 5 hours now and have been completely surrounded by boredism. I'm considering taking a nap until 5 p.m. because I have to go to church at 5:30. On a side note, I have the sudden urge to drive!

Oh, I just thought about something funny. This morning my mom informed me that she got an e-mail from O2 (a mobile phone provider) saying that she won £415,000 randomly. My mom foolishly thought it was real but after about 2 seconds of Google'ing, I revealed to her that it was just a scam. The funny thing is that someone on the forums was being laughed at because he actually decided to give €400 to the specified address in the e-mail. My mom's not too tech-saavy, but at least she informed me about the e-mail before shipping the money - or herself. She actually got a little bit sad after finding out it was just a scam; she was actually happy for a change y'know. I love my mother.

The Climb by Hannah Montana is just about the greatest song I've heard off of the Family channel. Usually I don't like music that has "meaning" to it (aka Tupac), but this one is different. I don't know what it is, but there's just something about this song that I love. It feels like it just has so much passion / feeling. It's a different side of Miley Cyrus and it's a much different song than her Hannah Montana opening song (which I hate because it sounds to me like she's bragging a bit). Kind of hard to believe that I like this song, since I'm into hardcore rap music. Anyways, make sure to watch the video below in HQ.

Doubts

Before you go and question the title, keep in mind that this is about University and nothing else. I have a day-off today and I figured that I might as well write some of my thoughts down because I rarely have time to update this. First of all, Physics is starting to make sense, but we'll just have to see after my next test on Tuesday.

Second of all, I'm having doubts about what I want to spend the rest of my life doing. What do I want my career to be? As of right now, my dream job would be to work for Dell, Blizzard or Google as a Software / Computer Engineer. Yes, that is shooting for the stars a bit, but it is a dream. Anyways, I talked a little bit about my future yesterday with Nikki and Adrian. It really got me thinking about what I want to do in the future. Do I even want to be a Computer Engineer? Every University student questions themselves about this same topic, "Do I really want to be doing this job for the rest of my life?" I don't really know if I want to be a Computer Engineer anymore because I'm kinda sorta leaning towards Software Engineering. I know being an Engineer will be extremely tough for me, but I'm willing to put myself to the test. A couple of my friends have struggled in Engineering-based courses so I am having my doubts, but I'm just going to have to test it out for myself. I am sure about one thing though, I will not be an Electrical Engineer, LOL. I might even go into Computer Science to see where that leads me. We'll just have to see what offers I get - if I get any - from Ryerson; I'm praying to get accepted into Computer Engineering for, at least, first year.

I'm anxious to see how I do, even though my main focus should be this school year.

I almost forgot. Last night me and my girlfriend were talking and I brought up the fact about how I love Astronomy and Liquid Nitrogen. The whole knowing about life and stars out there and Super Conductivity (video below) really fascinate me. Maybe I'll even major in something around those lines. Keep in mind that the video below does have quite a lengthy intro, so you might want to skip forward a little bit (approx 0:50 mark).

Result of Nikki Not Being Home On a Saturday

So, Nikki wasn't home for pretty much the whole day. This is what happens when she's not home. My day:

-   I woke up at around 9 or something, i don't really remember. I woke up because Nikki called me and that's all i remember.
-   I think she called again later after she finished showering, again i don't really remember.
-   I went back to sleep.
-   I woke up at 12:27 p.m. to eat breakfast (Bacon, Ham and Eggs, yum).
-   I went back to sleep.
-   I woke up at around 2:25 p.m. and read my whole unread list on G-Reader.
-   I went back to sleep.
-   I woke up at around 3 because some guy called me and then i went back to sleep.
-   I woke up at 3:50 and decided to blog. After that i went to sleep again.
-   I woke up at around 5 something because Nikki called me and woke me up.
-   I ate grapes. After 2 plates, i went back to sleep.
-   When Nikki got home, at around 8, i woke up since she called me.
-   Since then, I uploaded some pictures on Facebook, watched Star Wars (on Spike TV), watched 2 Family Guy episodes online, watched half of the last The Office episode online (cause of Megavideo's time limit thing) and also watched the UFC 96 main event (yes, Rampage).
-   I've also been reading Fifth Business [again] for the past 3 hours (really only 2, due to clocks pushing forward or whatever).

That concludes my day, very sleep-full and very boring-full. Time for me to go to bed yet again. I was supposed to do homework today, but clearly that didn't happen. Tomorrow will be a Physics-filled day. I'm mildly excited.

I Really Hate Physics

This is just the beginning too. I hate Physics. I've been staring at the same question for 1 hour+ right now and i don't get it. I hate drawing FBDs, but that's because i don't know how. I'm screwed for my quiz tomorrow and am also screwed for the next 5 years, since i'm going to have to deal with this crappy course throughout University. It's really retarded and i don't know how else i can describe it. Really, really pointless. Too many numbers and letters. I'm probably going to have to stay after school, cause i don't get the past 3 lessons. It's so stupid. I think i should give up. My sickness is also bringing me down. It's causing drowsiness, my eyes are already starting to get droopy. I can't stay focused and i want to go to sleep. I'm not going to say, "Fuck my life," because everyone already says it too much. I'm just babbling on and on about nothing really. I'm not even going to bother editing this because i don't really care if i have on-going sentences and what not. Blogging is pointless, sort of. I lied. But, it causes me to procrastinate more, so that's a negative. My girlfriend won't even talk to me cause apparently music is more important than i am. And she was listening to [ew] Jonas brothers. All-in-all, it's been a pretty rough day so far. I want to go to bed.

Sickness

The weekend where i was planning to catch up with my Physics homework and i feel like crap. My immune system has failed me and on the worst possible weekend. I feel so lazy, although i did finish my Calculus and English homework today. I am not really in the mood to do Physics and shovel the snow. Lame. I'm so lazy and i'm currently procrastinating. Hence why i'm making this blog post instead of doing my Physics right now. Damn it! Anyways, i shall go review my Calculus then it's time for the dreadful Physics nightmare.

My Letter to Physics

Dear Physics,

I hate you at times. I know that we are on break right now. I am also aware that you are "the science of matter and energy and their interactions," but you are just too difficult to handle right now. You and all of your many [derived] equations makes it extremely hard to figure you out. Sometimes, even the smartest of people have trouble figuring out exactly what your answer is, since you seem to be giving mixed signals. I've had you in my arms for only 4 days and i am already having problems dealing with you; this could be due to the fact that i haven't held you for over 2 years. It doesn't feel the same. I am looking back and reviewing what you told me 2 years ago, but i just can't understand you. I don't understand why you choose to speak in numbers and not words. You briefly explained Vector Components to me, but i still don't understand what you mean. I'm currently having problems trying to figure out your Final Velocity, even though you've told me your Initial Velocity and Average Acceleration and Time. Why are you putting me through these tests? It's been over 3 hours, yet i've only done 25 questions. If my calculations are correct, that is an Average Velocity of 8.33 homework questions / hour. Please tell me if that is correct; if it is not i can Change. I am having my doubts about you, but i'm going to be with you for the next 4 years of my life. If we're having problems now, Physics, how will we work out in the future? Will this relationship work in the long-term? Can you handle all of my frustration that i will let out on you as Time passes by? I really do hope that i can figure you out because i've been studying you for, what seems like, forever. I really hope you do understand because i am trying my best. But, will my best be good enough for you?

From,
Isaiah
