cardboard solves problems

I just finished my maths assignment before 8:30! That represents less than 3hrs work on the assignment as a whole, 2hrs yesterday afternoon and less than an hour this morning. I like that! It's so much better than any physics assignment could ever be, unless it was a first year Mechanics assignment. I like maths.

I woke up very early, c. 6:00, and dozed for about half an hour before succumbing to the inevitable forces of awakedness, but managed to cram another hour of solid warmth in before finally braving the... warmth... of the morning. It looks like it's going to be a stunning day, and I'm looking forward to doing a fat lot of nothing much in it. I think I need a hit of Vitamin D. The uni life doesn't cater for such necessities if you're a Science student or EUer or both.

I wish I could say that I'm sorry to see the EU Science mission over, but I'm not. Hopefully we reached some people for Christ, even though the tide of apathy that is encroaching the heart of our culture is so hard to swim against. But for me, I'm just glad for some time off right now, time where I don't have to act like someone I'm not, time where I can take the back seat without throwing someone else in the deep end up front, time where I can battle my emotions instead of repressing them to battle something else.

Another thing I like is a limerick...

There once was a man they call Farge,
Whose head in circumf'rence was large,
In truth he was snappy,
Though outwardly happy,
When folk thought his head was a barge.
