Recap: Quicksilver

Hg used to used as a poison too, I hear.

Chemistry has taken a sudden acceleration. We went from "This is molar ratio" one day to "calculate the transitional kinetic energy" the other and now we're suddenly onto the uncertainty principle. I keep looking for the transition except, of course, there's none. After puzzling over this I concluded that it's simply a part of life: life is uncertain and random--if you can find transitions for the stages in it--well, it wouldn't be random anymore, would it?

Yesterday at work was surprisingly slow because of the superbowl (most people probably stayed in front of a TV and ordered pizza or something, but I had an incident with gloves and ceramics and salad dressing and spilt white salad dressing all over my black pants. In the salad bar. In front of many people. I think I'm destined to feel stupid continuously this year, but then again.... So afterwork I was laundering my pants in the sink and one of my floormates was looking at me funny becuase I don't think she'd ever seen any one do laundry in the sink before....
At least I did not break or injure anything, myself included. I just feel bad enough about the salad dressing that I've decided I'll never complain about shredded carrots again, even though I realized I'll be dealing with them every week from now on.

Alas, alas, it's a Monday.

This is why we college students refer to the reg mechanism as someone would refer to a monster from hell.
Remember me complaining about how the class I took at De Anza, Elementary STatistics and probability, is suppose to be transferable for Elementary STatistics here, but the advisor told me it's not? Well I looked online at the information website that tells you which class from which college is able to replace (by transfer articulation agreement) which class from UC, Davis and I have, STA13, Elem Statistics, replaceable by MAT10, Elem Statistics and Probability, which was the class I took.

My reg starts at 12:30, I have hepB appointment at 13:30 and midterm afterwards and the department advisor won't see me unless I have an appointment and I don't know when the heck the local academic advising centre is open (but supposidely not till 15:00?)

Monday is not the best of days for me. I have a class in 5 minutes and it ends at noon. Stats. Stats. And it's a math class for what forsaken reason there is. Was.

Ah. Cheers.

I have received credit, apparently, for STA13 on January 16th of 2006. Don't ask me why or how, I'm just glad it happened. Consequently, it means I'm done with math classes for the rest of my undergrad career.
The short version of this is me, going from local academic centre to computer (i.e. De Anza online reg system and Davis online reg system) to department advisor (more biking, yay. To the person who originally told me that MAT10 not transferable. And, dear readers, this is why I always double-check everything, it's not the fact that I don't trust you, but that I've been trained to paranoia).
Also I've found upon my initial search that they've posted the finals date for the spring classes so you can find out when they are BEFORE you register and... I have no finals (that I know of) on the 7th, 8th, or 9th of June. My first one is organic chemistry on the 10th (Saturday, but oh well, you can't have everything). I also seems to have my chem and bio final on the same day, but at this point, I'm not about to complain about anything. At all.
Happy to have solved issues in one hour with nothing worse than a tendency to talk too fast and a headache.

I have the hour because apparently the lit teacher's not done with the interviews yet so there's no class today which, for some reason, I don't ever recall being notified about which made me feel, of course, stupid (this is official now: February is my "Oh My God I'm An Idiot Month), but like I said, everything is more or less fine right now and I'm not about to complain.
