ANGLES ARE MY ENEMIES

Mr. Barrack Obama is a very funny (and subtle) man! BOOOOOOMZZZZ! HAHAHAHAHA

yesterday, we had our es11 lab (my first es lab activity in college). there were 2 problems that a student needs to solve for 50 minutes: the first part was the easy round, and the second part was the average round. the easy problem consisted of 3 questions, which were yeah, well, very easy (so I got the correct answers). The second part was well, yeah, average (since average means not too difficult and not too easy, i was only able to answer the easy part of the average problem).

the only catch in this es11 activity was that there was this buddy system. in this buddy system, a particular student is assigned as buddy 1 or buddy 2, and he/she is chosen by the instructor to submit his/her paper. so, if student 1 doesn't know the correct answers and he is chosen, student 2 will have a grade of 0 same as student 1 even if he/she knows the correct answers. in a way, it's unfair, but that's the way how the system goes.

i was very confident in the easy round problem, but my partner was the one chosen to submit the paper. i was feeling okay with it, because well i was thinking that i could solve the next problem correctly and perfectly. unfortunately, i was only able to solve 1/2 of the average round questions.

so now, i ask myself, why am i blogging this? 

firstly, i need to remind myself that i have spent 2 days (you heard me, TWO EFFING DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) to just study about 3d and 2d models and forces and tensions and springs and pulleys, and i still couldn't get the right angle of that resultant effing force!

secondly, i have neglected my other subjects just to study es 11: i haven't yet started solving my phys 73 lab activity, and haven't read for my MatE11 recit. So when we had our recitation in MatE11, i haven't got a single thing on my mind.

And lastly, I AM SO PREPARED I HAVE EATEN MORE VEGETABLES THAN THE USUAL, DRANK 2 GLASSES OF MILK EVERY NIGHT, AND SLEPT AT EXACTLY 12 MIDNIGHT THE WHOLE WEEKEND.

BUT STILL I WASN'T ABLE TO FIND THAT EFFING ANGLE! THAT EFFING EFFING ANGLE! THAT ANNOYING EFFING EFFING ANGLE!

on the way home, i kept on saying (inside my mind) that i should forgive myself. i am only human; i make mistakes.  

there is nothing to lose in spending two whole days studying es11, eating more vegetables than the usual, drinking 2 glasses of milk every night, and sleeping at exactly 12 midnight.

yeah (and booyeah), i wasn't able to get that annoying effing angle in that average es11 problem, but i was able to speed up my metabolism and be healthy and increase my chance to live longer and longer and longer and longer like how an 18.24 degree angle stretches out till it becomes a 180 degree angle. K. BYE.
