This year

Mon Dec 22, 2008, 5:19 PM
I'm not dead, I promise.
I have a new computer! :)
[link] if you wanna see it.
My old 2005 lappy was getting pretty useless, it had about an 8th of the space I need and was really slow, nevermind the overheating and broken CD drive :/

Just finished the second year of my 4 year physics/maths degree, got my grades recently which were:
Quantum mechanics A-
Electricity and Magnetism B-
Newtonian&Relativistic Mechanics B
Waves, Optics and Circuits B-
Algebra and Crytography A
Mathematical Logic A
Linear Algebra B
I'm pretty happy about the A- on quantum. And yay, on course for honours.
I start a summer paper on programming Matlab (a program that's used a lot for scientific calculations) at the start of January.

Also protest the Australian internet censorship here: [link]

Oh and thanks for all the comments guys, unfortunately I don't have time to respond to all, but the input is appreciated. Have a good New Year.

cool "Just finished the second year of my 4 year physics/maths degree, got my grades recently which were:
Quantum mechanics A-" you are the first I know that likes hard science and art as I do. I had this type of stuff as an elective I chose art for a profession. I do hope you stay in touch I will watch the progress you share. [link]

You probably love art more than me, then. I find it a bit weird this concept that things are mutually exclusive, but then it's often expoused by people who find it too hard to be good at one thing, let alone multiple ones. Can't think of anyone off the top of my head in the phys or maths dept who does visual art (then again, hardly anyone knows I draw), but I can think of a few quite musically talented people. What's really cool is when you met a first year fine arts student at a party who will keep up with horrible maths puns/talk with the best of us, and ramble about how he loves lisp and how the story of Bertrand Russell scarred his childhood.

Well then you know me my daughter her art is on this page she is a biologist and National USA Scholar and son Will soon have his PHD in physics. I chose art for the joy of it.

You want to see this [link]
The size of my pics is listed on most of them. Usually 15x20cm to 20x30, with the occasional A3 (30x40cm).
