spring break
I took the test. I survived. I think I did well, considering.
I am very happy with at least three of the grad students at UC physics. One of them completely explained Faraday's law to me in five minutes and I think I aced that problem on the test thanks solely to him. Thanks for all of the prayers if you are one of the people who was praying.
I worry about Brock though. He is one of the few physics majors who is not an arrogant jerk or a socially inept genius. He is the one with the fewest fries in his happy meal, if you know what I mean, but he is probably the one I get along with the best. I think he failed this quarter and that means I lost my lab monkey... partner... yeah. And it means I have to hang out with the arrogant or socially inept ones more. They are cool, kind of, but prolonged exposure, just like with plutonium, can have an adverse effect on the quality of ones life. I will either end up MORE arrogant and conceited, or MORE socially inept.

Not necessarily true. If you lose Brock from your physics cadre, those remaining may actually have the opposite effect on you: you may become more humble and graceful. This strange effect sometimes occurs when a person of conviction is left alone in a group that diplays characteristics he finds repugnant. When the fallen comrade is gone, so is the opportunity to merely talk about the others with the comfortable comrade. Instead, out of a perceived need to survive, he may begin to exhibit an inner strength that can only surface when he knows he is truly alone in the group. He then either calls upon God to make him strong enough to stand, or succumbs without calling upon God. If the former, he will usually find he has actually rubbed off on the group, rather than the other way around....Stand firm! Greater is He that is is in you than he that is in the world.
