Home for the Holidays!

I have successfully finished out one full semester of college. Now it is time to go home for three whole weeks! What a satisfying feeling.

I have learned a lot. Here is a non-exhaustive list:

  • FORTRAN is a ridiculous programming language (unless you need to process massive amounts of data).
  • I have the ability to keep peace on a team.
  • Never leave detergent unattended in the laundry room.
  • Sometimes it's a good idea to correct a professor's error, sometimes it is best left alone.
  • Polar coordinates are actually easier to work with in many cases.
  • Meals are grossly overpriced at ISU.
  • Teach a parrot to say "supply and demand" and you've created an economist.
  • Though it sounds elementary: if you're stuck, get help.
  • I have a surprising tolerance for noise and rowdiness (that's new).
  • Sometimes you need gc in your calculations, sometimes you don't.
  • If you open the door and face a wall of wrapping paper, don't just charge through.
  • The best time for quiet thinking is 6:30-7:00 in the morning.
  • To stay on top of things in a hard class, read ahead.
  • All about partial derivatives, multiple integrals and vector calculus.
  • All about ... chemistry.
  • A lot about the love of God.

    Concrete

    Recently, in my "Chemistry for Engineers" class, the instructor was talking about concrete, and how it is ubiquitous in engineering applications. My roommate, who is in electrical engineering, and I, an aerospace engineer, exchanged glances. We were both imagining the use of concrete in our future work.
    Ha.
