grr

So I worked on the theocomp some last night, in an effort to avoid doing hum reading.

The first problem was not hard, because it was basically the same as a proof we had done in class.

HOWEVER, it took me two hours and over three pages to write up. Damn! What the hell? I think that's the longest proof I've ever written. And at least part of it was proof by duh ("The string 'a' ends with the symbol 'a'").

I think I may have accidentally glossed over some points in there, but I think I wrote enough to get most of the credit on the problem. In other news, number 2 (except the last part which I haven't done yet) took me 15 minutes to write up.

Went to the Aquarium with Ben this morning, which was nice! I've been a total slacker this weekend. I'm planning on completely skimming the hum reading, since I don't have to write a paper on it this week. I think I can let it slide. Instead, now it's time to practice and then work more on theocomp, which looks to be especially assy this week because that two-hour problem was one of like three 25-pointers on there.

Hopefully we can get together a Tuesday afternoon theocomp homework group which will help SO MUCH.

A little worried about our phone conference tomorrow. Do we have a conference room reserved? Prof. Thom neglected to tell us that she wouldn't be there (:P :P :P). Also, I wanted to go to people's office hours to ask for recommendation letters tomorrow between 3 and 4, and our conf. call is at 4:00.

Wah, too much stuff to do! At least I got a little window shopping in this weekend when we went to buy Ben some new shoes.

Note to self: order sheet music for Tzigane.
