Life is a beach.
Today classes were canceled at 2:00 PM due to the current weather conditions. This morning while walking to my office I almost got blown off the sidewalk by the wind, the chilling wind. It was not that cold. It was even raining, with about two inches of snow in the ground. But the wind... the wind was blowing from all directions! Oh boy, my poor umbrella was torn to pieces.
Today at 2:20 PM I was presenting my seminar talk on the search for supersymmetry. I must confess I was not 100% prepared for it. During this past weeks I have been paying the price of my procrastination during the first week of classes. It has been one homework right after the other, with almost no rest between. I am very sleepy now. The first EM homework was handed in with almost all problems partially solved. For the second I choose not to solve one of them. Statistical mechanics was done the night before. This class is scaring the shit out of me, since I feel I am not following the professor during lectures. And QM. For the first "set" I had to work on it just the night before, and literally solved only one of the problems the morning it was due. I have been out of it. And my dedication to the seminar presentation was very little, in the sense that I have not read that meaning papers related to experiment concerning "the search for supersymmetry".
I put some slides together in the course of these past two weeks and really wanted to get it over with today. Oh well. I guess now I have more time to work on it. Make a better presentation.
I also need to start working on the QM problem set due tomorrow.
No rest for the wicked.
