It's time

To bring out the defibrillator pads and resuscitate this dying blog once again: firstly because we're in the middle of exam time, aka WOTVAC, and secondly because I have my paddles once again since my pre-order on battlefield 3 came in the mail today, which means -50 hours lost in exam preparation time. Both of these add up to more time spent procrastinating, either shooting things or reviving things including this blog.

Anyway I just wanna share a little bit of what my life's been like since the last update. Disclaimer: the following conversation really did happen at the specified times, though has been cleaned up for everyone's enjoyment. Basic knowledge of calculus is still recommended to understanding the whole exchange.

Hungy (3:43 AM):"Hey man, still up?
Kevin (3:45 AM):"lol yeah. Vector calculus time?
Hungy (3:47 AM):"But of course, how's it going? Is q1 even doable.."
Kevin (3:47 AM):"You're meant to use green's theorem for the whole thing. I got -64/ 3 (b^3 - a^3)"
...
Hungy(4:06 AM):"hmm...i got 4/3 (b^3-a^3)"
Kevin(4:07 AM):"hm..."
...
Hungy(4:17 AM):"Maybe this was a bad idea, leaving it till now."
Kevin(4:17 AM):"Lawl."
...
Hungy (4:23 AM):"but the circle is a right annulus right..."
Kevin (4:23 AM):"The Jacobian is r either way."
Hungy (4:23 AM):"r is a/b though, so shouldn't matter."Kevin (4:24 AM):"Hm it is too lol."
Hungy (4:24 AM):"Man, we are so beached. And battlefield comes out today.."
...
Kevin (4:30 AM):"I just get 8 (b-a) now lol."
Hungy (4:31 AM):"What's your actual integral? I got (2rcos + 4r^3sin^3)r"
Kevin (4:32 AM):"Same."
Hungy (4:33 AM):"Ahaha massive fail."
...
Hungy (4:43 AM):"Wait how can you get only sine^3 in the 2nd term
Kevin (4:44 AM):"Integrate (2rcost+ 4r^3sin^3 t) right at the start..."
Hungy (4:45 AM):"Yeah...and if oyu integrate that..."
Kevin (4:45 AM):"Oh shit. flail."
Hungy (4:45 AM):...Kevin what are you doooiinnnnnggggg!"
Kevin (4:45 AM):"I diffed." <-This is going in for quote of the year nominations.

Yeah the assignment was due 11am the same day. And yes there were two questions.

So there you have it: maths at 5am. I do think this needs to be a blog feature at some stage provided I can be bothered actually doing any maths. In other news I finally quit my job, after months of pleading by my boss to keep working and months of me subtly hinting at the fact that I need a raise. In the meantime, not much has happened, but should hopefully have more time to...waste on other things. Uni and exams will have to wait.

This captures my attitude to swotvac study pretty well:
(╮°-°)╮┳━┳ ( ╯°□°)╯ ┻━┻

Don't really have an excuse for being awol this time, but you have been warned: you are now being quoted!

I have no basic knowledge of calculus except from this song:

All I see are numbers and something about exams, I can definitely relate ;_;
