Monday...

Briefly, I hate Mondays. I hate 'em. Therefore I decree, from this day forward, there will be no more Mondays... Got it? Today is Tuesday, then. Happy Tuesday, everybody...

Monday mornings... really hard to get out from under the warm quilt...

'Twas -14°C, with a -21 windchill this morning... Yeah...

A good thing about this term: No boring English lectures on Monday morning... honestly, those crappy, hour-long sessions at the beginning of each week... they put me to sleep. Attended everyone of 'em (I don't bunk, skip classes without good reason. And I haven't found one (reason) yet... Period.)... Watching the prof's antics failed to amuse me... must have zoned out on more than one occasion...  Anyways, the previous term is behind us now, thankfully...

This term, I start the Monday with Calculus... which is awesome... nothing like Calc early morning (I'm not being sarcastic... it's probably better than having it in the afternoon)... I am liking it better now, since they are moving over the topics covered in FM... nice to see that all the effort we put in Further Math wasn't a waste in entirety...

Started Matrices in Algebra... once again, year-old memories surfaced... I am glad to find out that I do remember the stuff, even if a bit... FM might have given me an edge here too... By the way, for anyone looking for help in Matrices, in FM or any similar course, try Khan Academy... it taught me loads more than He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named...

Worked on my Algebra assignment... The written stuff was easy, was done in 15 min... the online stuff, however, even confused the TAs... according to them, it was using ideas from future classes... and I agreed, since I had seen similar creepy questions in FM...

After a coffee & donut at Tim's, headed over to Stats... it's building up... sorta interesting... still waiting for what Larry Smith calls "...all that good stuff..."...

Came back home... took a nap... woke up... "faired" my Algebra work, worked on my Calc assignment, almost forgot dinner, ate, went back to the assignment... did half, will do the rest tomorrow... reminder to myself: start the programming assignment...

Overall, a busy, tiring, fortunately productive day...

Now I'm sleepy...

Good night (or morning/afternoon/evening, wherever you may be in the world...)
