got the urop!!!!!!!!
so it means that there is 10 fewer hours in each week for procrastination
hopefully this tighter schedule with a wider variety will really push me to render my college life fruitfully
yayy urop!
hao la upon vicky’s request ~ i actually kind of did nothing in my interview
so i sent a kind of long email to my professor afterwards
Dear Professor _____,
(deleted it..= = suan la hahaha~)
today i hv interview with my potential u-r-o-p lo barn
he asked me to do some prior reading on cogeneration and district heating
you know
I actually enjoy learning new stuffs /reading new stuffs that dont need exam or pset
things that really interested me, I will really pay my full attention to it
and i really want to keep reading more about it
so even MAYBE unfortunately I cannot be the research assistant at last (he said the competition is big)
i am glad that I have learnt more about this through his introduction and my reading
so…wish me luck la!
and his research paper is pretty interesting too
simply speaking it is to build greenhouses around power plants , so the CO2 can supply the greenhouse
and the research is about how to change current existing power plants into thermodyamically efficient cogeneration plants
which makes district heating possible in the US
ahhh so cool
suen la =_= good to learn some new stuffs.
boston’s weather fluctuates as much as my mood
2 days ago it was still warm and sunny, a soothing 12oC
and today it suddenly snows again with no sign..
and my dear professors finally did not reply my email for the weekend (cry)
anyway i still sent them one more to show how eager i am..
but hey, indeed i really wanna do this research ma……>o<
gum its really ying ma the project scope >o<
hope its not taken by other people yet…. ai suen la
slim chance…aaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
back from chester’s 3-hour-long office hour
god its so crowded soh dic..=_=
anyway gotta rest for an hour or so now and see wht to do next
and chester said its gonna be super difficult ……..Orz
__
whenever i listened to 狂人日記 i will feel pretty 沈重….
another week started again, with a snowstorm.
u know, it is the very first time after coming to MIT
i packed my schoolbag (hmm make me think of chishio XD)
then went straight to the crowded study room
and studied…til now i’ve been here for 3.5 hours
becoz i know i wont really study for phy, unless im jailed to do so
(…yeee then wht im doing now le? XD)
anyway…very very bad progress…i dont understand
the pset are so hard, how can i do so difficult problems
when i just merely understand wht’s happening
-_- at least give me some dai b questions to work on to consolidate my concept laa please
==” i just wanna skip the page when i see a full page of integrals, fractions, lambda, theta whteva
anyway…better than nothing….
at least i tried to understand the problem solving session 2,3,4…= =
wht i wanna say is that
how can i go to do those practice exams when i found it challenging to do basic problems jekk
i hate teal =_= they just assume everyone will know how to solve those in-class problems
maybe, if i think these are very easy stuffs instead of sin-yup-wai-jue thinks its difficult
wui ho d?
things i feeel reallly vexed about..
1. study so much so much for 18oh3 then didnt get good result becoz my mind is stuck at one easy question then i lost 10 marks
2. hv to wait for professor’s email for days and till now i stilll hvnt get reply from him. to him the email is just shit but to me the email is the only thing im waiting for for teh whole day.
3. our friendly phy pset question is “an annulus of charge” firstly wht the hell is annulus, then it gives a friendly explanation bracket after that (a washer)..so for an alphabetically-challenged international student she wont understand anything ..until she searched in wiki it means “a ring”, thanks
if i can get an A for 8oh2, then i can do anything, no kidding.
so i told myself to at least read the notes for physics
ended up watching 係咪小兒科 ….”””
sometimes when you are so reluctant to do something
u can generate some many excuses and alternatives out instantly haha
whenever i flipped open my course note…i will become 氣虛昏厥~~
or like induction, all my negative charge will move to one side…(ng ji up mud…)

“because life is finite, life is meaningful.
Maybe the meaning of life is something I am doing right now, as simple as breathing,
without the faintest awareness of it.
Perhaps the meainig of life is not some goal to be pursued, but something which is
articulated in the act of living itself.
The meaning of a narrative, after all, is not just the end of it, but the process of narration itself.”
