Journal Entry

Sunday, October 15, 2000

A fresh week. A whole week, at that. Last week felt excessively long for its 3 day duration. However, I believe Monday is a necessary evil that sets the tone for a quick week.

This weekend was a nice rest, although not really needed that much considering the recent break (which was quite nice). But now we're back into the swing of things here, and well, it shows.

I've got 2 prelim exams this week. One in Computer Science Tuesday and another Thursday in Chemistry. Then I have a 3rd exam next week in Math. Did I mention the CPR written exam Monday and the CPR practical exam Wednesday? Whohoo! Buckle up because here we go!

Otherwise, my recent days have been fairly uneventful. Nothing really exciting going on.

Saturday will be my first ride with CUEMS. Should be fun.. Saturday 11am-3pm. Although, I may encounter a few too many hung over Friday night party-goers. Who really knows. You can rest assured that I will provide plenty of details following the shift.

Thursday last week, we prepared a superconductor in chemistry lab. It was composed out of barium peroxide powder, calcium oxide, and yttrium hydroxide. That's right, yttrium (element Y). During the week, it will be fired under oxygen, and we get to test it in class for zero resistivity this Thursday.

Oh yeah.. Cornell lost its football game to Colgate (non Ivy). So that makes us all-zero for Ivy games, zero-all for non-Ivy. Wonderful.

And until I update again..
