Differential Equations Professor (referring to integration shortcuts): "We can do that but don't tell anyone."

[horatiocomehome]

integration. it's just simply not done anymore! no one is doing integration. it's passe. it's out. and that's a good thing! people are saying this!

differentiation is and always has been, simply objectively better. there is NOTHING, absolutely not a single problem, where integration achieves something that could not be done by simply looking at a problem and knowing in your heart what differentiation was done to obtain it.

it's true. and we all need to get with the times. thank you.

Diffy Qs midterm over

9 People You Would Like To Know Better

Three ships: Tanthamore, Everlark, and Catradora <3

First ever ship: Gosh I honestly have no idea, maybe Harry and Ginny from the HP series?

Last song: Paramore's cover of My Hero (specifically the electronic mix version)

Last film: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Currently reading: Notes on Diffy Qs: Differential Equations for Engineers :(

Currently watching: Nothing lol, I just do not have any free time ever anymore

Currently consuming: Nitrogen and oxygen babeyyy

Currently craving: An energy drink omg, would do anything for a red bull or celsius or something rn

Sorry it took so long to get to this @daisytrails, thank you for tagging me!!

9 People You Would Like To Know Better

or in my case, i only have five mutuals so i’m tagging everyone bc you all seem really cool and i would love to get to know you more!

Tagged by @likemonstersinlove !! <3

1. Three Ships: in no particular order - Ineffable Husbands from Good Omens, Liam Wilhelmina/Primsy Coldbottle from D20 Crown of Candy, and the 13th Doctor/River Song (I know they’ve never met in canon but listen, shhh) from Doctor Who

2. First Ever Ship: Percabeth from Percy Jackson

3. Last Song: If You’re the Coffee by The Arcadian Wild!

4. Last Film: Rocky Horror Picture Show! I rewatched it to show to a friend who had never seen it. Truly iconic. I barely understand any of the plot in that movie but I honestly think it’s better that way.

5. Currently Reading: Right now I’m not reading anything but I just finished Against The Currant by Olivia Matthews. It’s a cute little mystery set in a family owned Grenadian bakery in Brooklyn. (Yes, the title is a currant roll pun. There’s a recipe in the back!) It’s really good, I highly recommend. And I’m about to start reading the Dungeon Master’s Guide for 5th edition DnD later today. I’m very excited to see where that takes me!

6. Currently Watching: Dimension 20’s Burrow’s End on Dropout tv. Dropout content has consumed my brain almost entirely since I started watching D20 in February and this is no exception. Also Big Brother. I’m not a big reality shows person but I have been watching BB since 2009 at the ripe age of way too young and now I cannot stop.

7. Currently Consuming: A banana oat breakfast bar thing (?) that I found on pinterest and some water.

8. Currently Craving: I’m going to make pumpkin snickerdoodles either tonight or tomorrow, so definitely those rn.

I made a decision, hope I don’t regret it

I accepted the internship. So, I’ll be spending 10 weeks this summer learning LUA, helping write a user manual, seeing if I can match verified models the leads created, and hopefully helping develop some new models that can be verified using the program.  Pros:

1) It’s a job where I’ll be working directly under some professional mechanical engineers and maybe I’ll actually get an idea of what I want to do with my engineering career

2) The start and end dates allow me to do a post finals roadtrip and a pre-school roadtrip if I want (HEY BUGZ, WHAT’S YOUR SCHEDULE FOR THE FIRST WEEK OF MAY?)

3) I’ll get to be proficient with a programming language that’s used for a bit more practical purposes than what I’ve got now (with the exception of C++, all my programming has been the sort where you program scripts that run within the mother program, and not as a completely separate application). 

4) Accepting it means that I know for sure I’ll have a job, as opposed to knowing I have a potential to be offered a job (the other job hasn’t asked for an interview yet, but I wasn’t expecting to hear from them until Friday evening and I needed to accept this job by Friday morning, and a job in the hand is better than two jobs in the bush if you want a terrible, mangled, metaphor). 

5) Instead of all my knowledge from the past semester leaking out of my ears because I’m not applying it, I’ll have to stay on top of physics and refresh my diffy Qs and I’ll be in a better headspace for the start of fall semester than usual. 

Cons:  1) Pays less well than the other job would 2) For the 10 weeks, I’ll be working longer hours and most of it’ll be desk work 3) Parents will probably be dogsitting my dog a lot, because the internship will be based out of the campus and no dogs are allowed in the engineering building.

An Update! More quotes from the spring 2025 semester are on the way :D

Expect them this weekend
