No stick-koala bears were hurt in the making of this lecture

My physics professor likes to draw problems for us. Unfortunately (for him…the class is quite amused), he is a horrendous drawer (sorry Paul), and can only draw interesting stick figures. Today, in order to illustrate a projectile motion problem, he drew a hunter aiming at a koala bear. I wish I had had my camera with me!


So I guess I should let you all know what classes I am taking, as I may reference them in the future (classes? What? People actually go to classes in college?). Since I am a crazy biology major, I have a crazy course load. I am currently taking organic chemistry, physics, nerve signaling, and intro psychology. Unfortunately, I couldn’t fit a writing class into my schedule. That is alright, I suppose, because the nerve signaling class is actually pretty heavy in the writing department. We are even reading a book by the Dalai Lama!.

This may make me sound utterly insane, but my favorite class is organic chemistry. It just makes sense to me. Unlike physics….but physics has stick-koala bears, so it is all good.

Have a great rest of the week.

Beginnings and Signage

Welcome to my blog. Wow, what a creative start. I generally find beginnings to be the most uncomfortable part of things. That being said, I hope you enjoy reading my posts in the coming months. I hope they are interesting, funny, sarcastic, and an accurate representation of my life here on campus. It is important to remember when making your college decision that each student’s experiences at a school are unique, and your “college experience” is what you choose to make of it.

I spent some of my summer in Toronto Canada, and found some amusing signage:

This sign (and the next one) was in a candy shop. the guy standing in front of me bought $850 in candy!!!!!

Seeing as this was a week before school started, this one kind of hit home. Not that I find school grim, I just love summer break.

Thank you for the sign telling us of the protruding sign.

Have a good week!
