smooth

is it bad that one of the main reasons I want to drop an 8-week course is that I have a problem sheet due on Monday?
lol this kind of sounds like a situation I'm in. I'm going to withdraw from a class because I realized I have nowhere near the time required to commit to it, due to having several large projects directly related to my major. I realized this when I totally bombed the first test.

Ace is a real beauty. The SSFR FTP reg thread turned into the "Ace Vader Group Therapy Thread" for awhile.

I really get a kick out of him and GS.

02-13-2009 , 03:08 AM
On my way to bed shortly as a matter of fact, then I'll crawl my ass outta bed around noon like always.

I actually fired up 6 tables and was gonna play for an hour or 2, then after about 50 hands I'm like **** this, I don't feel like playing right now
02-13-2009 , 03:15 AM
Playing tired is bad, better to get some sleep. Got to be like midnight over there right now?

I figured as much but had to say it cause its the standard line...
02-13-2009 , 03:40 AM

I also don't have any ad-blocker... can anybody point me to a plugin?
02-13-2009 , 04:31 AM
Do you use firefox?

If so,

Tools, Add-ons...then search Ad Block Then download all of them
02-13-2009 , 04:39 AM
hehe... found one called "ad-blocker" (who'd a thunk it)... doesn't block every yet. But thanks.
02-13-2009 , 04:43 AM
Ad-block Filterset.G Updater
Ad-block Plus
Ad-block Plus Filter Uploader
Ad-block Plus: Element Hiding Helper

That should take care of most everything.

kthanks.. also just got a pm by bostik. So far I managed not to be bothered too much by the ads, and the screen is big enough (1280x800) to still let some content through.

HappyPixel: Can't find your post right now. Do you really want to trade ACC for PDE's? If you need pointers for Abstract Algebra let me know.
02-13-2009 , 10:52 AM
Can't stand algebra... don't mind analysis but definitely more into applied and applicable

Probably doing PDEs, QM, electro, fluids, waves, applied prob, stochastic financial models, statistical modelling and a couple other courses next year. Impure maths ITT =)

As a side note, trying to get an internship in anything financial is really tilting right now... "blah blah blah, sorry but this year we have a limited number of placements in Europe, blah blah blah, kind regards, another consulting firm"

Yikes... well, to each his own I've always been a groups and combinatorics type of person.
02-13-2009 , 02:22 PM
new school rocks, only bad thing about it is that I am way to tired to grind because of it
