math
I took the AMATYC test Tuesday. I think I did well.

The Florida Math Olympics should be sometime in either March or April. I'm already preparing.

stream of consciousness
It's amazing how quickly life goes from "bored to death" to "swamped". Right now I'm in it up to my eyeballs. I took a Chem 2 test today. I expect a low B or a C. The International Circle is scheduling various events; not that I'm required to go, but it's generally a good idea for officers to show up most of the time. I'm working with Phi Theta Kappa to raise enough money for our trip to Nashville for the International Convention. I have a presentation in Spanish class on 21 February. I have to speak about a series of ads. I chose the Intel ads by Blue Man Group. I am going to apply for a job at a local Sylvan Learning Center, but first I need some decent clothes and a haircut. Monday, I was going to take the LPI 101 test, but instead I need to attend the International Circle officers' meeting, or apply at Sylvan, or both. I still need to apply to graduate; the deadline is 15 February.

I think my stream of consciousness just ran dry.

networking
I don't know if it's a NIC problem or a hub problem, but occasionally my slower workstation will recieve packets extremely slowly. Restarting the eth0 interface fixes it right up, for a time.
networking
Someone in my JavaScript class told me that one of his friends, who owns a computer store, is looking for people. If the Sylvan thing doesn't pan out, it's worth a shot.
dick
We're finally on non-speaking terms. Hallelujah.
old games
I played "Jetpack" for the first time in years last night. The author made it free-as-in-beer, but not Free, and it runs in DOS... but it's still a damn good game.

sleep is for the weak, and if there's nothing due on monday, the weekend.
