What should I do with the hour I have before class?
I should probably do some homework, but I really don't feel like it. It is really that crappy part of the semester when all my motivation just flies away because I feel like I should be done already... except that I'm not.
Clinic can suck it. I'm really tired of fighting with the modeling software--it is really frustrating. I've written most of my parts of the midyear report at this point (Saeta told us to disregard the deadlines and just make sure to have it done by the end of the semester), and the parts of the reports yet to do are things like writing up the stuff we haven't done yet, which means making the modeling software work. I'm really looking forward to next semester when we have a divice to test instead of doing modeling. I really do need to do some modeling though because I can't do it over break when I am visiting Josh because I need the network to do the modeling. I'm also a little bit concerned for my grade in clinic. I've actually been putting in the hours (except for the week I was so sick), but I keep not having much to show for it because the modeling program is stupid. And as opposed to some lab environments, Saeta really has no idea how much time I am actually putting into clinic.
I'm thinking I'm going to ask Raytheon if they can wait until March or April for my decision. When they say no, I think I'm going to accept and keep looking for another job. It seems like kind of a mean bad thing to do, but it also kind of seems like the right choice... and well, if they don't expect some people to do that, they are just stupid.
My throat hurts. I don't think I am actually sick or anything significant, but it is just enough of a tickle to be really, really annoying. Maybe I'll get out some cough drops... then I could have a stomach ache instead.
It looks like Josh is going to have letters of recomendation from 5 people. I think that is silly, but it actually kind of makes sense. He asked VH and his boss and 3 other profs to write him letters. He asked so many people because he wasn't sure if VH would write for him, since he wouldn't last year (Josh really sucked it in research first semester, but did acceptably well second semester) and he wasn't sure if his boss would be a completely appropriate person since it is outside of academia, so that recomendation was going to be extra anyway. Well, yesterday VH finally (the original request was sent in September or October) got back to Josh and said he'd write recomendations, but all the other profs have already been given recomendation stuffies. Anyhow, I'm amused that Josh is ending up with so many people writing him recomendations.
Look at that, I've managed to waste a lot of perfectly good time. Go me.
This evening I'm gonna work on clinic and I have to do my E84 homework.... and then BREAK!!!!
My wireless keyboard and mouse should get here already.
