My best friend's crisis is actually continuing longer than expected. BJB didn't even look at her while speaking to her in class, and that made her more upset. It was as shocking to me as it was to her, and after spending some time reflecting upon it, I just think that she should wait just a little bit more, have a talk with him, and in the worst case scenario, prepare to move on.

I've been very busy with school, work, and my friend these days. I was very glad to find today to be Friday. I don't know what the date is half the time... I walk around like a zombie. I wake up near 6AM, and use my somnambulic driving abilities to go to class, and then to work. I was so used to getting up by 8:30 to 9AM for more than half of 2002, so gettiing up nearly 3 hours is wreaking havoc in my life these days. But all in all, waking up early isn't as bad as expected. The day is longer, and I have more time(to study!).

I have some other crap to take care of, including getting ready to volunteer at a hospital. I have so much sunshine in my life to keep to myself -- gotta share it with others! Yay. woop-dee-do. (Note sarcasm).

I really need to work on this page. It's full of incomplete links, and the pic on the lower right hand corner is not even mine. (Came with the template) I will need to work on this, but I really don't have time these days. Work has been demanding. Crys needed much more of me than before, due to her recent crisis, revolving BJB. I also need/want/should drop 30 lbs, and have 14 units to contend with, so it is quite an understatement to say that I just didn't have time to update my blog. Although I love my blog, and have a passion about working on it, reality comes first. I need to make sure I get the extra boost of GPA that is desperately needed, and make sure I don't fall behind in classes. I know its only been exactly a week since school started, but i need to do everything possible.

I had dinner with my boss, and Shane, and ate more than my share. Again, that would be an understatement. I feel as though I ate a horse. I am FULL. I am beyond full. I am just a spoonful of rice away from exploding. So needless to say that my fabulous workout from yesterday is now history, and all the food I ate tonight surpasses the benefits reaped by yesterday. It is rainy and drizzly, but maybe i can make some time to go burn off something.... I know 30 lbs is a lot, and I have planned many milestones.... The first one would be to drop 10lbs by the end of march. I hope I can do it. That's just 2 lbs a week.... hopefully I can do it... but GOD I LOVE FOOD.

OMG~! I just saw Eminem with glasses on, and he is astonishingly breath-taking. He's heavenly... almost etherial. I adore him and worship him. I'm going to try to have a back ground song playing... as soon as I learn how to do that. I just went to work out... 14 minutes of light jogging, 9 minutes of that eliptical machine(which is supposed to do wonders for my tricep area), total a bit more than 20 minutes of cardio, 25 slow (and painful, I might add) crunches, and some yoga at home, total mileage : about 2.5 mi, total calories burned : 250-300.

Well, my best friend is in a crisis. She had a fight with her boyfriend, whom I will call "Billy Joe Bob(BJB)" so he can remain anonymous, and he packed his stuff and left. Also, it was his apartment they were living in, so he asked her to leave immediately, or he will take "action." They were really lovey-dovey, even just three four days ago. Needless to say I am in complete shock. It was her first real boyfriend(not that any others were imaginary or fake), but her first serious pretty long-term(1 yr) relationship.

She is all the way in the mid-west, and I am all the way in Cali, so I really can't help her out much, other than have a chat with her when she needs it. Which makes me feel very imcompetent. My first long term relationship was really long ago... and I don't remember what it's like to be in one.

Well, after the fight, he left, and while she was at work the next morning/afternoon, he came and took all his stuff, and DISCONNECTED THE ELECTRICITY, and wrote her a note to leave.

It just came as a total shock to me, because they were so good together until now, and after one fight, things changed drastically. She has no place to live, but thankfully has another friend she can stay with at the moment. They lived together for more than half a year. And he turns off the electricity after a fight. They had some fights before, but nothing out of the ordinary. I feel as though BJB has really made up his mind, and is pretty serious. My friend, I would have expected to break down and be really upset, has actually suffered through the first 24 hours of the break up well, considering. Maybe it hasn't all sunk in yet, and maybe is still denying it in her mind. Maybe she has hopes of getting back together. She says she still loves him, which is sad, when BJB told her he didn't love her anymore.

I told her to pack her bags and come back home to cali in May, when she finishes this semester, and continue her studies here(she's going to go to pharmacy school), but she says she will finish her stuff there before heading home, as she had planned, and she can't give up on her plans because of this. She is extremely brave, and although I admire her and respect her desires, it breaks my heart knowing that it is still below freezing temperatures in Iowa, and snowing, and she has no place of her own, not to mention suffering through a break up. =o(

Prove: Hell is Exothermic

Thermodynamics Professor Robert Schambaugh of the University of Oklahoma School of Chemical engineering had written a take-home exam for his graduate students. Dr. Schambaugh is known for asking questions such as, "Why do airplanes fly?" on his final exams. The final for Spring Semester 1997 was no different. It contained only one question:

“Is hell exothermic or endothermic? Support your answer with a proof.
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle’s Law or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following:

First, we postulate that if souls exist, they must have some mass.

If they do, then a mole of souls can also have a mass. So, at what rate are souls moving into hell and at what rate are souls leaving? I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.

As for souls entering hell, let’s look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all people and all souls go to hell.

With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in hell to increase exponentially.

Now, we look at the rate of change in volume in hell. Boyle’s Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in hell to stay the same, the ratio of the mass of souls to the volume must remain constant.

1.So, if hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter hell, then the temperature and pressure in hell will increase until all hell breaks loose.
2.Of course, if hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until hell freezes over.

So which is it? If we accept the postulate given me by Therese Banyan during freshman year ("It will be a cold night in hell before I sleep with you"), and take into account the fact that I still have not succeeded in having sexual relations with her, then #2 cannot be true, and therefore hell must be exothermic.

hahah.. he got the only A. True story.
