An old friend of mine from my school-of-ed-days called me up today in the middle of one of his classes with a math question. He was subbing in a precalculus class at some high school, and had come to a problem that was causing a lot of hubbub amongst the students, and apparently no amount [...]
I'm actually somewhat exhausted right now, so I can't make any promises about the length or depth of this post, even though a lot has happened over the last week or so, especially just this weekend. Last Sunday, I had my final exam in Linear Programming, which was quite difficult indeed, but I pulled it [...]

I just got done with a midterm tonight, and I am very relieved to have it over with. I used one of my paid vacation days at work and spent the whole day studying. (And yes, we sometimes have midterms at night here at UW; this is a fact that seems to surprise and upset [...]

Ugh. I've been so busy lately it hurts. Actually it does hurt, since I've had quite a few nights of going to bed at 4:00 and waking up at 6:30. And considering the fact that I'll sometimes lie there in bed, unable to fall asleep until maybe around 4:30...well you get the picture. Last week [...]
