I'm pissed.
I have two homework assignments due tomorrow and I can't seem to get anything done on either one of them; and it's not for lack of trying - I've been at it for 4 and a half hours now. I've done two and a half pages of work on an ME problem - enough to figure out that I'm stuck (more unknowns than eqns). And math - well I've just been alternating between staring at the blank paper, reading my notes, and the book to try and figure out how to solve the problems....it would help if the teach actually gave us EXAMPLES LIKE THE HW IN CLASS....but she doesn't. I tried using a quick matlab script I wrote to solve one problem in a novel way...but that just turned out to be a 30-minute dead-end.
Urgh. Frustrated. I don't want to get shitty grades on BOTH of these assignments if I spend this much time on them. I'd settle for really understanding how to do just one and giving up for the night - but I'm starting to think it's going to be fruitless.
Also, the math material I obviously have NO idea how to do is on the exam I have Friday morning. Cheers.
I guess this has officially become a pathetic one-track blog...but what the hey.
The music video for the single off the new Bronx album is on the FRONT PAGE of the myspace musc page. That's effin A right there. The video is so-so...it's kinda funny, but only when you think about how raw these guys are live to have made such a strange and non-violent video...
The damn release date for major stores has been pushed back a month. July 20th. *sigh*
I WANT IT NOW!
And also, they're playing live in Seattle tonight. Bryan would never in a million years have a good time at that show - so I'm not even going to tell him. I'll just sit here and be jealous that he lives in a major metropolitan area right now and I don't. *double sigh*
Exam tomorrow. I dont want to study. I want to suceed without any effort...
The Bronx is Awesome.
Eh? Anyone excited? I can't wait to run down to the local store and pick the new album up. I think the Bronx represent all that is good and right with music today; they just effin' play like they mean it. They record analog (that's right, no digital remastering....), and limit to 3 takes. And the stuff is like pure audio cocaine. Effin' A. Also, I know nothing about html programming, but I posted a banner for their new album in the top left of the header....it's horribly missized, but I'm proud of my semi-accomplishment (I didn't write the banner...I just stole it cuz I like it).
Peace. Everyone find some time to rock out. It does a body good.
I case I take it down, it's here. yeah!
WWB IN THE NEWS
Ok, Just a quick news-rehashing post because this is too weird to let it go.
My Last post was about a rock show, where I saw (among other bands) Whole Wheat Bread play live (I was impressed). According to their Myspace page, their base player was arrested on charges of first degree robbery. That especially sucks balls for them because WWB was about to start a HUGE tour with Real Big Fish & MxPx (other, more popular Punk/Ska bands) - that crowd will be really receptive to their sound so it sucks that they'll have to go on without a base player (which is especially weird since there's only three people in the band...). I wonder what he was busy jacking?
Anyway - this pic is from his personal myspace page. Enjoy.
Well, if he does hard time it looks like he'll be ok. Well, unless you're not allowed to have weed in prison..... whoops.
