Another overdue update

So it appears that the summer has gone right by. I was just starting to get into it! The work was just getting interesting. Good thing that it looks like we can continue the project for my project course.

Speaking of courses, here's a brief summary of what I will in fact be busying myself with for the next eight months:

  • MATH 400 - Applied Partial Differential Equations
  • PHYS 402 - Quantum Mechanics II
  • PHYS 410 - Computational Physics
  • PHYS 473 - Nuclear Physics
  • EECE 356 - Electronic Circuits II
  • MTRL 478 - Electronic Materials
  • APSC 450 - Professional Engineering Practice
  • APSC 479 - the aforementioned Project Lab
  • CPSC 303 - Numerical Modelling of Dynamic Systems
  • EECE 450 - Engineering Economics
  • EECE 453 - Communication Systems
  • ANTH 100 - Intro to Anthropology (hee hee, serves me right for forgetting to take a technical elective in first year
  • PHYS 455 - Statistical Mechanics
  • PHYS 458 - Applied Optics
  • MUSC 409C - Jazz Theory and Arranging
So yeah, one of these courses is not like the others. Which one of these does not belong? :P I'm glad I'm taking the music course though. It will be the single course I take at UBC that will not count for my degree, and it's just something I have always wanted to take. Totally worth the excessive course load. I am, however, getting tired of the student services people sending me e-mails to tell me that they have taken the liberty of de-registering me from courses becuase I am "taking too many credits". Bah! I need to graduate in 5 years!

Besides school, Snowstar still isn't letting up. We're getting close to a do-or-die date though, so if it doesn't work, then there's no more for the project...and if it does work, there is only minor optimization and stuff for everything to finally be done.

Audition for Band this Thursday! I have definitely not practiced as much as I should have this summer...what with work and Snowstar and all. Hopefully I'll make the cut again!

I'm sure that more has happened this summer, but I am just forgetting everything. Early day tomorrow; time to hit the sack!
