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...

Let's Talk About Timelines

This was originally going to be solely a discussion on time travel. However, discussing the timeline is a rather good starting point before or while discussing time travel. I've always wanted to write about my thoughts on time and time travel. It is one of those obscure enough topics where anyone can theorize about the generalities of it. But are those theories based in any realm of realism? There are well-respected theorists like Stephen Hawking who have gone into great detail regarding time travel. There are a ton of TV shows and movies which go to great lengths to be as accurate as possible. In our current understanding of physics, time travel is mathematically allowed. But the reality is that we just don't know, yet. Perhaps there is another law of physics we have yet to discover which proves time travel is fundamentally not possible. But it's fun to think about regardless. Let's start simple. If I were to build a time machine right now, would I be able to use i...

My Covid-19 Analysis

Hi Everyone. Been a while... We live in interesting times right now. There is a global behavioural shift happening all because of this nanoscale warrior that barley classifies as a living thing. Covid-19 has disrupted the world faster and more efficiently than almost any other thing in the last few decades. All of the news and social media out there about the virus is scary, and rightfully so. But it's important to stay informed about the facts, and I'm here to help arm you with them through this pandemic. Below is a report that highlights Covid-19's Global, Canadian and Ontarian reach. There are plenty of visuals out there tasked with doing the same, but this is mine. It's a static report because I'm not rich enough to afford a license for the software I use (thanks work!). Data is accumulated daily from the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control, the Canadian government's outbreak update site and Ontario's Data Catalog. Take a look an...
