5 minute thing
I e-mailed a professor of mine from last quarter about maybe working
with his team over the Summer as an undergraduate researcher, and he
e-mailed me back, surprisingly, with an affirmative response. I don't
know what I'll be doing, how much I'll be doing it, or even if I am
going to be paid, but I meet with a grad student tomorrow and
hopefully some of that will be cleared up.
If this is working out the way I hope it does, I should be able to
help out with one of their current projects rather than being
relegated to some crappy thing on my own. Furthermore, the money I
make from the summer will help me to buy a skateboard, a snowboard,
boots and snow gear, and maybe a ticket to Japan for sometime within
the next year.
As I said though, I have no clue what the hell is going on and as such
I am crossing my fingers and hoping that things work out well
tomorrow.
In other news, I did worse than I thought I would on my Philosophy of
Law essay, which sucks. I also did pretty poorly on my Electronic
Circuits midterm, which really, really sucks. I am now quite tired of
school, and as such am counting the weeks until class is over. The
quarter is just half over and I can't wait for it to be done.
Also, I've never been a huge fan of the Star Wars series, and yet I am
seeing it late Wednesday night or early Thursday morning depending on
how you look at it. I will be in Sac waiting in line with Sean, Ave,
and a bunch of greasy nerds with light sabres at 2200 this Wednesday.
Let's hope I get through that in one piece.
