Bring back any memories, Pat?



Vaguely.  I think I forgot all that 10 minutes after the final.  LOL

What kind of math is that?


Notation used in quantum mechanics.

It looks like...quantum states obey superposition, or something? 

Something like that, yeah.  The teacher never actually told us what it's called, just how to do it.  Thankfully it's really easy.

And yeah, it's quantum mechanics.

I feel like this first test might not go too well for me (I still have to kick my procrastination habit, blah blah blah I'll do it later blah blah blah), but I'm hoping for the best and expecting to need to study quite a lot more for the second test.

I'm not looking forward to college physics. Too bad I'm going to need many semesters of it.

Probably a chem major. Or biochem. Either way, 3+ semesters of physics.

I'm definitely better at chem than physics. I'm not sure why. I like it a lot more.

Ugh. I probably should work on more homework but I can't do anymore. I spent almost 8 hours working ahead today. I'm done.
