Past the first hurdle

Today I completed my fluid mechanics exam. I got off easy and wrote the exam in English. I feel like a bit of a cop out but I still don't have the vocabulary of getting through on the fly on an exam with technical terms (not to mention kanji), I asked for an English translation of the exam and was fortunate to have my professors comply.

I have lept over my major hurdle for this week. My next major hurdle will be my controls exam next week on Wedensday and after that, I will be done with all my classes.

After coming home at 3:30 am, I would sleep restlessly till 7:30 am. Walked with Cindy to my lab (up the mountain with my scooter) to give her a tour of the place before seeing her off at the bus stop 20 minutes before my exam. By the time my exam was over, I grabbed lunch and came home to catch up on sleep. I would sleep for 4 hours then run off to teach my final English class for the summer.

I loafed around the home till 9:00, cooked dinner and then proceeded to prune my music collection as my hard drive was running low on space. I nixed about 5 GB of music. In the past, I used to be an avid collector of whole albums for the sake of completeness, but from here on in, I'll be focusing on just the songs I like out of an album.

Time to get to work on my final assignments.
