The weeks ahead
Wed Nov 28, 2007 21:42 (UTC -5)Well, that was fast. My first semester in college is winding down, but I’m not off the hook just yet. I probably won’t have much time to post for a while because of things coming up.
- Friday, Nov. 30 – Last calculus test
- Sunday, Dec. 2 – Present draft of research paper for America in the Fifties
- Tuesday, Dec. 4 – Final paper due
- Tuesday, Dec. 4 (or thereabouts) – Some extra presentations for America in the Fifties that I probably should have done earlier in the semester
- Tuesday, Dec. 4 – Last social geography exam
- Saturday, Dec. 8 – Chemistry final exam
- Thursday, Dec. 13 – Calculus final exam
I’m in for a few busy days coming up, but after that, it shouldn’t be bad. And then I’ll be home for the holidays.
Read about Nature’s Great Survivors: Water Bears. (They’re microscopic, so they’re not really bears.)
15 Ways to Reclaim 2 Precious Hours Every Day. I’d read it, but I’m too busy right now. (No joke!)
And here’s a fascinating article from Wired about a record-breaking road trip from New York to L.A.: The Pedal-to-the-Metal, Totally Illegal, Cross-Country Sprint for Glory.

Good luck with your finals. And don’t worry about that 15 Ways article – it has way more to do with the business world than students or people in general. I work in the business world, and it didn’t provide that much useful information (bike to work? When it’s 115?)

I am completely convinced that the water bear is the key to medical, technological, and military advancements. If only we could increase the size of the water bear. What dreams could we realize then?
