note to self:
grad school ....is not like undergrad:
a) if i hate a grad class at the beginning at the semester, im really going to hate it at the end
b) if a grad class does not inteset me now, it wont interest me later
c) if either a or b is true, ill will drop the freaking class instead of letting it screw me over in the class that do interest me

ps...how the heck do i find the impedance across a coupled inductance?
pps...oh thinkpad why must u choose a time like this to leave me...why oh why?

Currently Reading
Digital Integrated Circuits (2nd Edition)
By Jan M. Rabaey, Anantha Chandrakasan, Borivoje Nikolic
see related
wow its almost near the end of the school year, the end of my undergraduate career for that matter.  Only 2 more weeks of school, and one and a half weeks of finals.  These last 2 weeks are going to be super busy, i still have to do my digital circuit project---an adder.  Sounds not too hard, but believe me, senioritis (even in college) makes even doing the simpliest tasks hard. This is not a good sign.  Next year when i goto grad school, im gonna have to work hard and study hard again. What a scary thought...

on the lighter side of things, well not necessarily lighter, just more off topic, i figure im wasting too much time xanga hopping.  i mean i learn all sorts of cool useless things about random pple, but at the same time its kinda like stalking since ireally dont know who they are; oh well its fun to do anyways just for kicks...

hmm when i first signed up for xanga, id thought i'd write down all the silly and funny stuff that happens to me every day.  But soon i realized that it takes alot of effort to write thsi darn stuff down.  I mean first i have to remember what happend and then i have to actually write it down in a coherent and meaningful way such that i wont put everyone to sleep or get them confused trying to read my discombobulated english...like this sentence here.   See but im an ee major, so its A-okay to write down crap since everyone else probably cant write much better (especially at 2 am).   where the heck was i talking about?

hmm... o right....laziness and then later apathy is a great demotivater and reason why i stopped writing on xanga.  well that and i doubt that many pple actually read them.   i think bothering them on aim is enough, having to force them to read this gibberish if they subscribe to the digest may be considered to be cruel and unusal punishment. 

anyways i forgot to mention that im ta-ing ee40 this semester...but im sure most of u knew that already.  i would complain and rant about my students but im afraid they might read this....you never know who may be a stalker out there ;)
all ill say is that im sure i didnt break as much stuff when i was a student.   hehe, we (the super ta's) kicked their behind in the last midterm....woohooo.....oh wait thats not a good thing, oh well......just wait till the finals comes around, time to kick my brain into high gear.

jeff just told me to copy the entry in case the browser farts.  for some pple, when they lose their entry, they will retype it and whine about it in their entry. Me, i'll just say to myself, darn it, and let it be and go on to something else.  even though it isnt posted online, at least i wrote down what i felt like saying on paper, even if it only existed for 5 minutes. 

ok next post i promise that it will be in coherent english fitting of a college graduate....i promise....hey dont laugh...im serious

alright, until next time......and off i go
zzzzzzzzz

(ooo look at the book im reading, its a good book (well the parts that i read anyways which is uh few and far in between)...but its full of typos...)

(oh i think my ee121 teacher actually expected us to read the book for his class, that would explain why im not doing to hot on the tests.  hmm i think he thinks im a not too bright student (read idiot, but pc) after our little paper project chit chat, i mean my brain practically farted and crashed and i couldnt even say anything of reasonable intelligence, it was like i didnt even take the course, i really i hope i pass =\)

(last side note, dc food sucks, everytime i go i remember why i hate it...
 eating dc food for 4 years is seriously not a good thing.....i think my body is developing an autoimmune response against it...even the sight or thought of dc food repels me.  i mean they cant even cook a decent pot of rice....they have have like rice cookers, but do they use them...noooooo, they like steam the rice somewhere else and then dump the rice in the cooker, what the point of buying rice cooker??   i mean sometimes i just want to eat rice and only rice (ok and maybe soy sauce on the side....mmm) b/c the food is like just plain yucky.
i dont think i can ever repress the memories of the DC3 gumbo dinners....bleh)

ok good nite pples

wow its already febuary
alas...so little time left, so much to do

hmm classes dont seem all that exciting this year, I just dont feel connected to the class or something.  Maybe i should just give it a few more weeks
Last semester i hated ee117, but at lesat i cared enought to hate it.  this semester, i just dont know.

wow college is coming to an end, hopefully ill get into grad school so i can continue this chara*cough* i mean my education.  Sometimes i feel that my freshman year was just yesterday.  Oh well.  Going out to work seems scary especially if you have to do it for the next 20-30-40 years....eek.

well its really late and i should be sleeping so good nite

hi ho
anyways...yeah so school is coming along ok...but it seems like no matter how much (or little) classes i take, i still end up busy.   I might as well overload myself and ill probably do just as well (ok maybe not...i appreciate my sleep)

hmm research is going ok...i got my fpga to talk to an compact flash controller chip, luckily the clocks werent out of phase like at work during the summer, so everything worked just as planned (except for me naming the wires all wrong..hehe)...hmm the bwrc lab needs an air conditioner i always want to doze off in there...and i need to remind myself to get a new dvd to play, watching the same episode of friends over and over again to test my code is really starting to get dry

hmm what else..oh right i have to write my grad apps...blah boring stuff
...i need to find something fun to do....
...and off i go
