So Ends Another Semester....

I just took my last final. Seriously, the bonus question took me about 20 minutes, and the other 9 questions took me about 25. No joke.

The bonus was something like this. If you get it without help, I might just call you a math nerd... or dedicated.
"I was on the second floor of a building the other day. My wife says, "lets take the lift. It won't take long, it's on the third floor and coming down." So we waited, but it went right past us to the first floor. Then back up, to the fourth floor; back down to the first again; and up to the fifth floor. "Lets just take the stairs, it'll be way faster," I said. "No," she said, "It's going to continue up to the 9th floor, then come down to us." In fact, it did. How did she know it would?"

have fun with that...

Also, I just picked up War And Peace. It has HOW MANY PAGES?!?!?! (1455) well, it'll give me something to do on a certain car ride that I may or may not be taking...

Movie

I just finished watching A Walk To Remember on Youtube. Really good movie. I'd totally recommend it. If you like, I can post the links.

Also, a little-known fact about youtube videos: I'm not exactly sure about Windows operating systems, but on Ubuntu, there is a /tmp folder. Things like youtube videos get stored there temporarily, but you can navigate to that place and then copy the video, so that you have a permanent copy. Kind of a grey area on legality and morality though.
