A Mathematician, an Engineer, and a Physicist walk into a bar... (original) (raw)

The optimist sees the glass as half full.
The pessimist sees the glass as half empty.
The engineer sees a glass that is twice as big as it needs to be.

I'm exhausted, beat, tired etc. etc.....
BUT......
I AM A HOMEOWNER!!!!
Hahahahha, yes I am very very very happy....
I am too tired and have to much studying to do to post more now... I'll post more later
pictures to come!
I DID it! @ 10:12 pm
Woo Hoo!!!
*pat* *pat*
Yup that's me patting myself on the back because I DID go for my run today! I'm up to 36 minutes! Woo hoo!!!
Still not running at lightening speed... but hey maybe someday.
I was thinking today that I'm not really losing weight (and by "losing weight" I mean "losing fat" because I don't really care what the scale says as long as I can wear my *skinny* jeans - I know muscle weighs more than fat anyways). That sucks! I mean I'm running like 10-12 miles a week and not losing weight???? How does that work?
*Grumble* *Grumble*
I guess I need to cut down on the sugar intake.... hmm that sweet tea is not too sweet to me I think. So I guess I'm going to have to limit my sweet tea intake to trips to Ma Possums and Isabel's only. All other meals = water :) Its cheaper that way too.
I'm also reminding myself that I didn't gain my weight over night so I should expect to lose it over night either... too bad.
So other things I did today:
Got through 2 more lectures on Controls (Thermo is as good as its going to get before Friday I think)
Still behind on my studying - I hope I get left alone tomorrow so I can crawl into a hole and not be disturbed
Ate some spaghetti (felt I should throw something else in there other than running and studying)
...
Run Today: 36 min!
Pace: Eh whatever
Number of bags of dark chocolate M&M's: 1 (mmmm.... chocolate....)
Number of times I thought my butt looked more "bootylicious" in the mirror since I started running: 1
Running and Studying @ 02:43 pm
I ran for 20 min yesterday :) Yesterday was my short run (i.e today should be my long run... groan). I decided to try that grass trail with the long uphill section at the beginning. I kicked it's grassy bum! I ran the whole way up and then kept going. I finally ran out of trail and took the thin mountain bike trail. Unfortunately it is little used and very ovrgrown, it didn't take me long to get lost. Eventually I found my way back and ran down the hill towards the park. I was doing really good! So I decided that when I got to the bottom, I would have like 2 minutes left and I thought I would try and get as far UP the hill again as I could in that time.
Ugh it was hard but I even made it back up the hill at the end of my run! I'm so proud!
I also finally was able to answer a few parts of a few of the thermo questions yesterday which is great. So today I'm starting on Controls again. I think I have enough information on this section to maybe do fairly well? So today's going to be a tough day of studying... I'm not sure I'll make it out for my run :(
Anyways for anyone who is curious, my running program should be pasted below. I have done every day highlighted in red :D I've been running for a long time now!
....
Minutes ran today: None yet :(
Times I bugged the security gaurd: 3
Song stuck in my head today: "We are Siamese if you please... bah bum bum cha, We are Siamese if you don't please... bah bum bum cha"
1 Week 'till Quals @ 08:55 pm
I went running today!
Yay for me! I debated whether I should try since my back has been bothering me...
Josh said it was probably only a matter of stretching so I stretched and pressed on!
I completed my whole run :)
I'm very happy and I can't wait 'till I make it to the next step where I start running for distance rather than time.... what if I someday ran a MARATHON! Hehe... well hell might just freeze over...
...
Got through Chapter 6 in Thermodynamics today, 2 Chapters to go
1 week and 1 day 'till the qualifying exam
Today's run: 30 min
Today's pace: 12 min/mile (hey its not lightening fast but I get there)
Times I watched Troy yesterday while studying: 4
Times I drooled over Brad Pitt: not enough
Troy (brought to you in espanol) @ 08:50 pm
La grandenza de la enternidad obsesiona a los hombres.
Y asi, nos preguntamos:
Reverberaran nuestras acciones a traves de los siglos?
Oira otra gente nuestos nombres, mucho despues de que muramos...
y se preguntara quienes eramos...
con cuanto valor peleamos...
con que ferocidad amamos?
Troy @ 10:48 pm
Men are huanted by the vasteness of enternity
and so we ask ourselves:
Will our actions echo across the centuries?
Will stangers hear our names? Long after we're gone...
and wonder who we were...
How bravely we fought...
How fiercly we loved?
