you must whip it
Monday has been overwhelming and poignant. And not in some epiphanic way either. Arg.
After a long day of classes plus a physics quiz, I went to some Rolls-Royce dinner tonight. It was supposed to be a recruitment for co-ops. But it solely consisted of this one RR rep going on about the company. Admittedly, I was very interested, and still am, in the company and their dealings (mainly jet engines and design…new info to me), but the announcement about the event tonight was very misleading. And the “dinner” was pizza and doughnuts. Thanks guys…So anyways. I’ll go to the Co-Op Fair tomorrow with resumés ready for delivery.
And I had a long period of homework on Sunday thanks to the absolutely worst-worded EF homework assignment ever. There was an immense amount of justified complaints for that one.
Plus! I got to spend several hours tonight individually pulling out each one of my brain cells at the Math Emporium. Linear Algebra (MATH1114) is the paramount, the summit, the perfect example of the most poorly collaborated class ever. Back in my brother’s days here, part of the class comprised of an actual (voluntary) lecture. They have totally gotten rid of that area of help now, so everything must be taught by yourself from the information online. Let me mention that each quiz is four (4) questions and the tests are only fifteen (15) questions. The slightest mistake can result in a catastrophic drop in a grade. To teach such a complex and theoretical subject entirely on internet-based material is foolishness, and now I see why so many people take this elementary math class multiple times.
Arg. I just feel like ranting tonight.
Anyways. Much to do this week. Several rather interesting events to attend (Job Fair, Internship Fair, Co-Op Fair…Ferris Fair…). And some tests that I am preparing for. So some excitement. Also this weekend is my RA interview date, and VT-One which my NLCF band is playing for. Cool.
Too much to do. No little time.
