Grind Time

So Urban Dictionary defines "Grind" as a group of lesbians. Wait a sec...

That wasn't what I was looking for.. hmm alright, maybe another definition of the word? Ah yes. Grind: "When an individual pushes his/herself to attain a goal" -second entry on UD.

That will be the extent of my 'citing' of UD, I have no intent to provide a bibliography in this post. Don't worry, I know UD shouldn't be a source for information, but sometimes its the only option! Imagine people could use UD in school? That would be hilarious. Highschool essays would be very, very different.

Also, I find it funny how this is actually below the group of lesbians definition but I digress.

GUYS GUYS I finally used "I digress" in a post!!! Re my post a little while back. I don't actually know which one but fuck whatever I'm awesome.

Anyways,

I'm 5 days away from finishing the first 2 of 4 courses in this ridiculous transfer program from college to university. I do have to say I've learned a lot and learned it well here. Actually deriving formulas and defining theories actually helps when learning these calculus concepts. More so than in college where it was just: here's a formula, use it. This is boring, moving on.

I was thinking today, in a kinematics lecture, we covered about a month worth of grade 12 physics in an hour. AN HOUR! I found that interesting, the internet probably doesn't care.

I'm at a very difficult crossroad right now. As you all know... if you don't know, you live under a rock, with no internet connection.. Windows 10 is finally available and slowly trickling down to me from Microsoft, WHICH CAN'T HAPPEN ANY SLOWER, and I'm super excited to completely re-set up my computer! But, exams are next week and the grown up thing to do is to wait so I'm not super distracted over this study weekend. If you know me, you know how fucking hard that is for me. But I'm going to hold off despite all the buzz this is making across all forms of media I follow. There it is, school ruining my life again. Such a first world pain jay, fuck.

I hope no one finds my swearing offensive.

I'm actually pretty confident about these exams. The good thing about a one month course is that, well, only 30 days goes by from start to finish. Yes, trolls, that is the literal definition of a fucking month but you know what I mean.

So for the title purpose of this blog, it is time to study and prepare. As distracting as the world around me is, its grind time. And no, not time for a group of lesbians.. although..

Thanks for reading!

Euroblog Part 7

This series ended up being far longer than I anticipated. I could make an ebook about my travels! Who am I kidding, no one would want to read that... let alone buy it. Also, side note: Polarsteps was so great up until a couple days ago when it went haywire and threw a bunch of phantom travel paths on my map. Support said it has been fixed however, there was no way to remove the phantom lines. This all makes for a ton of work for me to redo all of the travel steps. It's unfortunate but I understand these things happen. Anyway, it's all updated now and working as it should, sorry to my 7000  7 followers for any inconvenience. Now that it's all back to normal, here is the link if you'd like to check out my trip! If you missed any of the series, check it out on my social media feeds or on my blog homepage. The last post is right here! July 22 2017 Wow, am I ever behind on this. [Left off in Florence] So I went up the massive dome of the Florence Cathedral...

Tim Hortons: An In-depth Review

As I sit here pretending to be a scriptwriter at a budget Starbucks  Tim Hortons, feeling slightly out of place, I write this review. This will be an attempt at a new series on my blog, since I've been dry with ideas since returning to Canada. Tim Hortons is a Canadian classic coffee shop turned fast food restaurant while still retaining its coffeeshop status. Apparently, it used to be excellent until they changed coffee beans, but that was before my coffee drinking days so I and most people around my age probably feel the same (we don't feel anything about the changed beans). It also used to be cheap, but since high-status coffee shops like the aforementioned Starbucks and Second Cup somehow get away with charging 10$ for a drink, the friendly neighborhood Canadian brand jacks prices to compete. At least it still has its loyal customers. Fun fact, the first Tim's restaurant was in my hometown of Hamilton! It's also the usual go-to spot for a quick bathroom brea...

"Creative yet Clickbaity Title on Solar Energy!"

In the last post, I talked about what the Sun was. A giant nuclear fusion reactor. And since it is so good at being the Sun, it not only provides heat to our Earth, but also light. Lots of light. Hopefully, this isn't news to you (yikes!). Light is an interesting thing we very much take for granted. Look around, there is light in the room you're in, light coming from the screen you're reading this on (unless you're psycho and still print things..) and light from outside. Even at night! The light from the moon, isn't really light from the moon, but a reflection of light from the Sun. Did I just blow your mind? Probably not.. I guess I'm failing as a writer. There is a lot of light available, and all that light also carries energy, rather, it is energy. In reality, the light from your phone screen doesn't really have the potential to power anything, neither does a light bulb. But think about how many light bulbs it would take to equal the amount of light t...
