spent all day trying to solve an unsolvable question for my quantum homework. Typoes are at their worst when they're believable.

I'll be really happy when this quarter is over. In same class three weeks ago we were asked to convert a laplacian into spherical coordinates...something in mathematics that's akin to writing your full name 5,000 times over and over and over. 15 pages worth....

yay for quantum....and spherical coordinates are my favorite... diff eq and laplace transforms are mean.... but you are fun.... can we talk about jump ropes now wink blush kiss

Hey YOU LAZY MOTHERFUCKER down there in your shit white subaru! Where in the FUCK on your plastic steering wheel car horn does it say "DOORBELL?!" Punk. Yeah?

I'm studying almost every moment of the day right now, and my free time tends toward the extremes no matter what i'm doing.

When i sleep at night, it's either for twelve hours or two.

Some days i eat 3 meals a day (which is unusual for me), others i just drink coffee and diet coke.

I trimmed my hair yesterday morning, then buzzed it...

so i checked into the whole SERS thing. turns out there was a little bit of interest in this awhile ago, but purely to study the scattering charachteristics of small metal particles. because you need the silver monolayer to adsorb to, organics such as cells well be ruined in the process.

i am a grad student in 'photonics' ucsd (san diego). basically laser engineering. did physics in undergrad.

in undergrad i had a problem with too much skewl work. food was pain in the ass cuz it took time to prepare... which i didnt have, asswell as those pesky showers. i really ought to be workin as hard as you, but im past my prime. ima slacker now.
what r u workin so hard on?

oh, it seems there are some tricky prospects for getting cells to adsorb to silver. guess its a bit of a chemistry problem. try and bind organics to metals. sounds pretty tricky, but apparently possible.

I was walking up to my doorstep, a little girl stopped me and asked if I could buy her a textbook for school. Saw the same kind of thing in portland.
dk_____:
ive only heard of raman scattering in the context of light amplification applications, impying that there is some excitations involved. for experiments such as mine, studying scattered light to gain info about the object scattering it, the assumption must be made that incident and scattered light are at the same wavelength, ie, no transitions.

what did you mean by using surface enhanced raman scattering? is this a method for imaging surfaces?

what r u a grad student in?
thanks for the comment.

what is an interesting life?
_6deana9_:
...NU students are alwayz interesting...how did they get in otherwise? but i prefer the word intriguing; interesting works as well

take care sweetie blush

knowing your bong angle.

i graded 180 general chemistry exams from noon to 8pm. by 6pm i really sympathized with a student's 109.5 deg H-C-H "bong angle."

Somehow i managed to get a lab section full of 18 y.o. girls.

The Australian social spider:

After giving birth to about a hundred hungry spiderlings, Mom's body literally liquefies into a pile of mushy flesh. The babies then completely consume the gooey mess and begin life with some real home cooking in their bellies.

Do you and your genes have a conflict of interest?

still haven't decided.

Walked around town where it's cold and snowy. saw my friend Yosuki, who repeated everything he said twice like usual. I didn't see much snow in Arizona, so this is really nice.

_6deana9_:
.yay for snow. it was very nice today. how are you sweetie? love

so i have to choose what i'm going to work on for the next 4 years, and I have to do it by the end of this weekend.

As a procrastinator, i have no equal. Or, maybe I've just had more good opportunities than any other of my kind. Regardless, i have to choose an advisor.

My top two choices are polar opposites...maybe that's why...

i rode up the elevator with my department's Nobel laureate today. For another scientist, a Nobel laureate is sorta like an old rock star that you probably don't listen to much, but you respect their work nonetheless. Like Mic Jagger.

Anyway, i see him around once in awhile but i've never had such a good opportunity to talk to him.

I must add that yesterday...

innocence is a funny subject just dying to be exploited.

We use an inventory tracking software package called Winemaker's Database, or WMDB, which is one letter more than WMD...

Chem student, eh? My undergrad is in Chemistry.
