That-Which-Must-Not-Be-Named*

I have some a lot of moments of breathtaking stupidity, but what happened takes the cake, hands down.

It's hard to be optimistic.

*Which may cause a prolonged hiatus. Not that I have been posting interesting stuff lately, on account of I have no life! Brilliant.

If anything can go wrong, it will.

If I learned anything from this enlistment [which isn't even officially over yet because I still have to go to post-advising, and pay, and all that] it would be that Murphy's Law holds true. Things never go exactly as planned. I do have 18 units now, but I am far from feeling relieved about this. Except for the "Whoo I got ES 11 during the random drawing of IDs!" part. I also took 122, partly because I didn't want to pre-rog anything [lazy], and partly because I wanted to not be delayed in the 12x track.

So I have a less-than-perfect schedule. But it will do.

MTh:
730 - 830 ES 11 lec
10 - 1130 ChE 197 (Product Design)
1 - 230 ChE 197 (Polymers)
TF:
10 - 1130 ChE 132
W:
1 - 4 ES 11 lab
Sat (!!!):
830 - 1130 ChE 122

I feel like I'm pretending to be a hardcore Engg student. The fact that I AM delayed is starting to sink in. Don't get me wrong though, I don't regret my year in Japan. :)

Jack Johnson put it best in his song Sitting, Waiting, Wishing:

Well I was sitting, waiting, wishing
You believed in superstitions
Then maybe you'd see the signs

The Lord knows that this world is cruel
I ain't the Lord, no I'm just a fool
Learning lovin' somebody don't make them love you
