399

Ok Miah, heads up. Tomorrow you will be posting our 400th post!!! This is very exciting.

Like Sari, I'm a bit overwhelmed at the moment (just finished tonight's readings and notes and things) so I won't post too much. Gonna go to bed soon, get a head start on tomorrow.

Just a few things:
  • My new philosophy prof is really old. Why is this interesting? Because… because I've never had such an old prof before. One of my profs last year was in his eighties, but he was really active and he seemed to be more like early early 70s. This philosophy prof, however, is quite old and somewhat ill, from what he told us. I could hardly concentrate on the lecture, I was so amazed by his frailty. I… just wanted to give him a hug?
  • Textbooks are so expensive. Gah. Got one more left to buy, as well as a lab manual (where they describe all the experiments you're going to do in a certain course).
  • Work tomorrow. Woo, hope I don't "waste" 4 hours as I sometimes do, puzzling over the data that I have to work on.
  • So many taekwondo practices. It's crazy. We're gearing up for the next competition, which is REALLY soon. So they're putting the pressure on, and I'm a-gunna die. Maybe I'll opt out of this competition, keep the pressure down?
Hope to hear from you all soon!

PS: Did you know that the German philosopher Leibniz (1646-1716), maybe best known as the [co-]inventor of calculus, learned Mandarin Chinese? Fucking amazing.
