more physics wisdom from pierre savard!

"This is a yak." (shows picture of a yak) "And this is Coulomb's Law." (shows Coulomb's Law)

i think that moment alone may have changed how i feel about professor savard.

i learned something about myself today: i am too good a person. before you think that i'm being arrogant, let me tell you the story.
last night, i had a dream. in this dream, as in real life, josh had just left for school in worcester. but then, somehow, i meet george stroumboulopoulos (yes, THE george stroumboulopoulos, the object of my eternal adoration). so, naturally, he wants to get in my pants. things are going well, and i am very much interested in learning more about his ineffably hot body. but then, my subconscious decides that it is too noble for this. i say, "no george! i love josh, and i must be faithful to him!"
at this point i wake up and kick myself. curse my unbending ethics!

today i wore my ears to school. i think it was a success.

today's physics wisdom:
"nuclear weapons are bad, particle accelerators are good."
- pierre savard

today was lab day, and it wasn't as horribly terrifyingly bad as i had thought. then pierre savard gave us a lecture on something, but we're not sure what.

i still think that songs to wear pants to is one of the coolest sites ever. i am hereby pushing it on you. ::push push push:::

and finally, this:

1. Think of a word you would use to describe me.
2. Go to Google Image Search and search for that word.
3. Select the picture you see as most fitting, and post it as a reply.
4. Post this meme in your journal.

i have a confession: i secretly want to go to pearls: a natural history at the rom. i don't know why. but the poster captivated me when is saw it on the subway. and, i mean, c'mon! PEARLS!

there's something i've recently noticed, something new on campus. hotties. lots and lots of hotties. i realized it on the very first day of class.
example: my german TA. she's from germany, here for a year on some sort of study-abroad deal. she's been in toronto for a month. she's your typical blue-eyed blonde german. and she's terribly distracting. especially since she conducts most of the class in german - that seems to add a delicious foreign flair to her.

life has been... living. i'm having no luck concentrating on school. forcing myself to do homework is a real job, and i'm ages and ages behind in oscillations & waves. i pick up the book, start reading, finish one paragraph, then start pacing the room for twenty minutes. then another paragraph, and so on.

my health hasn't been too super either. i've not been able to regulate my body temperature properly. i think it's all settling down now: i'm not sneezing any more, and my nose is almost mucus free. in a few days i should be fine.

the other day we got the sears catalogue in the mail, and i've got two words for you my friends: TOE SOCKS!!! i've been trying to find them for ages, and i guess it was just too early in the year for them. but sears at least will soon be selling them, and i will be living in glorious toe sock excess!
and also spongebob merchandise.
go spongebob!

i saw jeff the other day, and he bought my airline ticket for me, using his magical visa card of power. i hope i'm not being too presumptuous, buying it so far in advance. but i just wanted to have the paper in my hand and be sure it was all booked and payed for. and, to be honest, a big part of the reason i've been having trouble concentrating on studying is because my brain is occupied by a certain someone in a forest in massachusetts. and if the prices should all plummet over the next three weeks, well, que sera, sera.
