Day Chat v5.3

I've been working 9-10 hours a day (including school time) each week day here. At the weekends, it does slow down though, thankfully. I have exams straight after my mid-term break though, which is annoying. Then it'll be FULL ON work, all the way up until Christmas. We have so much crap to cover in Physics especially. The past month has been a joke. We just got a proper teacher now.

I can't wait for college... Imma do Physics at University, and hopefully get a Masters with Astronomy.

Damn I read way too much Cracked.

I only read Cracked when I am bored.

So, I've generally seen a lot of articles.

I skim through Cracked articles, briefly, at times... Mainly when I stumble upon them.

Physics even at college level is ridiculously hard. Like, probably harder than further maths.

I'm fairly ok at Maths, and I'm pretty sure it's not a huge stretch in OUR college levels anyway. Really, I'd say Masters is where the Maths gets hard, but I should handle it by then. I just really like Physics.

At college, the difficulty of maths and physics spikes a lot. Im not saying its undoable or anything, but YE HAVE BEEN WARNED

And ah yes, that reminds me of this one time at University (i.e. the past few weeks)

I couldn't find my lecture theatre cause id forgot to bring my timetable, so I went off memory and ended up in a room Id been in before. I think I've finally found it, just as its starting, so I hurry in and take a seat...

And then the guy starts talking about thermodynamics and physics. I was too embarrassed to just get up and leave in front of everyone, so I just sat their the whole way through for an hour, on about the most complicated fucking physics I HAS EVER SEEN... Soooooooooo many random letters and numbers and equations.

Pssh, everyone knows that

m1c1TRIANGLE.THETA + m2c2TRIANGLE.THETA= m3l +m3c3TRIANGLE.THETA

GAWD FORDY

The scary thing is, your not too far off the truth.

And even scarier, there was about five of those per 'law'.

The crap inducer - There were three laws.

The thing about Physics and Maths is, everything is related. The basic stuff turns into complicated stuff, and then the complicated stuff turns into the really hard stuff.
If you see how and why, then it's pretty much not as difficult. It pretty much how your head works around these things. Like, I love Physics and Maths, because it's all laws, and equalities. There's no grey areas like in courses like English, or Psychology, where a moral highground would be taken into place. With Maths, it's always numbers, equal to numbers.

I've never had Physics.

I think from your explanation though, I would like it.

It is very interesting. Especially the fundamentals. Like, you will never look at anything the same way, at least I don't. I constantly wonder what waves are travelling through objects sometimes. Hell, at the start of the year I found that my school journal resonates at the same frequency as the school bell.

Yeah, I do definitely think I will enjoy it now.

Especially if it is logical.

Im a bit of the opposite, the laws and numbers and facts are all a bit too boring for me. I like the 'grey areas' - its more about understanding all the angles and less about a justified right or wrong.

Yeh, but right and wrong is a human thing, and since I pretty much hate dealing with people, and ideas... Like, the idea of morality. There are so many things acceptable, and so many things unacceptable which contradict with themselves, or the views of another, so why bother? Mathematics is the one truth of the world. It IS the world.

These are the conversations we could have without Stickman. And I'm sort of down the same path. For example, why is it ok for two women to fornicate when two men can't?That sounded really gay.

Well, technically, most morals dictate neither is acceptable, but I don't wanna go too far into this, but I think anyone should be allowed have sex with whatever sex they please. Bluh bluh, I hate getting into these opinionated things myself, because I barely know where I stand half the time.

Once again, me too.

And man, I am shutting people down in NBA 2K11. :D

EDIT: Wait, is physics logical?

What do you mean by logical?

Does it easily make sense?

Sometimes... Depends on the topic. If you can get your head around a lot of it, it can be very easy. Like, the level of Physics we're doing right now seems to be very basic... We're doing static current, but we did some moving current as well which was easy enough to grasp, but we had a terrible teacher so we didn't understand the purpose behind it. You see with all the formulas, there's a real world method behind it, and if you can remember that, it's pretty easy to just understand it.

Well as long as it is sort of easy to make sense of it, I will do fine when I have it.

And now you have me thinking about waves are passing through my walls now! Errgh.

It's actually sorta cool, because white light is made up of 7 different waves, of different wave lengths. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, as you know. But Red would have the slowest frequency, and as the spectrum goes up the wavelengths increase, so violet has the highest frequency. That's why when you see a rainbow, red is always on the outside, and violet is on the inside.

YEAH, PHYSICS.

Double rainbow in my walls? :D

And I am off eating snow forever thanks to my health class. Blech.

CALLED IT

And oh yeah, Super Scribblenauts came out today. From the reviews, it looks like what Assassin's Creed II was to Assassin's Creed.

meh

fiirst one has put me off
