Watching it happen right now!

There's still no one awake in the house. Usually this time we're awake and preparing to open stuff.

almost blasted gay porn over the car speakers on the way here
had the car audio playing from my phone
loaded what i thought was a gif but was in-fact a video
stopped it just in time
i got dick for christmas
for the first time i actually got things i wanted [sp]ofcourse i bought it for myself but it still counts right?[/sp]

You guys all celebrating make me jealous cause I'm at work on Christmas eve
I worked 8 hours today, got home and literally died.
I love living in a mountainous region
because when the pass closes east/west travel is completely halted, since the other passes are even more dangerous. Due to risks of avalanche, I-90 (Snoqualmie pass) is completely locked down. So my aunt can't come over for the holiday :(

Don't feel too bad, I'll be at work for most of Christmas Day tomorrow.
The upside is the only people at work today don't care about us drinking so everyone is going to eventually be smashed at the end of the shift

What about senile racist grandparents complaining and assuming?
But hey got some nice hot piece of ass, couldn't resist the temptation of the meat and got a mouthful so now I'm stuffed.
Be careful with eating ham people, it's treacherous.
Got trashed last night and now I am at work with the worst hangover
Who's ready for AMC to play nothing but 'A Christmas Story' all day?

[QUOTE=paindoc;49380029]I told my parents about my grades expecting at least to hear maybe a slightly positive remark, since I felt pretty okay about them all things considered.
Mom said she expected better, asked why not everything was above a 3.0 and if I'm really sure college is for me. Dad said he's disappointed but guesses one 3.0 is okay. Both of them still treating me like a big sodding disappointment. Also they took back their initial offer to pay for my fifth year, as I hadn't shown enough improvement. I can't blame them as paying for an extra year would have been awesome, but it just sorta feels like a kick in the dick. I tried so hard on so many levels to be better, to do better, this quarter.
I wish I didn't hang so heavily on what they think of me, but here I am feeling crushed again and hearing "is college really for you? are you sure engineering is for you?" endlessly echoing in my head.[/QUOTE]
Engineering is full of people [i]just barely[/i] passing because just barely passing [i]is[/i] passing. They don't call a C an Engineer's A for nothing. You're probably doing better than half the class

I'm not though, though I do appreciate what you mean. I'm still below average, but I've gone from getting 2.0's (barely passing) to getting a 2.2 in chem, 2.4 in failed math, and 3.0 in new math. 2.6 is the average in chem, and 2.8 is the average in Math. Chem I fucked with my first test score being so so so wretched, lol. The advisors I've seen so far have all been impressed I managed to get the grades I did last year given everything I was going through, and the overall pre-engineering one earnestly believes that even if it takes me a year or two to get there that I'll succeed in the aero/astro department due to my passion for the subject. Seriously, I start gibbering and stuttering talking about it.
I'm going to get in that department, god damnit, and I'm going to keep trying and believing and chasing my dreams with fucking everything I have. I've gotten better about being tied to my parents will, and how I handle bad grades is so much healthier than it used to be. I mean, it used to throw me in a slump for days and over spring break last year grades then and my parents attitude lead me to damn near pull the trigger and end it all. Now its just "How can I get even better?" and the like. It just dampens my mood and cuts my drive for a few days everytime my parents lambast me for my grades or lack of effort. Its always "you're just not trying hard enough".
But fuuuuck that. Part of the reason I'm so driven, to be absolutely honest, is that by getting into my major, doing well, acquiring at least my masters (pls my PhD grades depending), and working somewhere like NASA/SpaceX/Blue Origin is all so I can give an absolutely resounding "fuck you!" to the majority of my family and my few irl friends who have told me that I should give up on Aero/Astro engineering and pursue "a more realistic career for you". Fuck that noise.

pot roast? looks nice. whole thing looks posh af. Except where are the potatoes? You need potatoes, everyone always needs more potatoes! I'm helping my mom cook a brisket, we just started marinating it now and tomorrow it goes in our wood-burning slow cooker for 12 hrs, from 6am-6pm. I'm so hyped.
and consider me jealous of what appears to be naturally very voluminous hair

you shouldn't feel bad for having a difficult time with engineering related classes - they're hard fuckin shit. the only people I know who have a harder time are computer science majors. Man, programming I do not get in the slightest. That shit's something else.
hell, I have to keep a 3.0 to stay in college and I got this semester with a 3.072. I got a C+ in my physics class and (somehow) a B- in my calc 2 course. You got this. Engineering isn't all like that. I like to think it's advanced problem solving, and that isn't exactly something you could put into a class. When I started working in a propulsion lab the professor walked me over 5 minutes after meeting him, and then after another 5 minutes of showing me around the lab and telling me what he wanted done, let me loose and left while I sat surrounded by wires and power supplies to rework and I did fine. Go figure, I failed the heck out of the section on electricity in any physics class I've ever taken.
If you're passing, you're passing. I don't think about "barely working" or "barely failing." You "barely passed"? You still passed.
It's a realistic career for you if you are wildly into it and you seem to be just about that life as I am. You got this.
As a CS major, we think you engineers are wizards or something :v:
Programming is just logic and syntax, you guys have to deal with maths and shit

nah, what I do is take a lot of formulas we already know and run them with different numbers and maybe design things to work better with that
but like, you guys come up with original shit and that boggles the brain

Oh maaaaan the working in labs thing pisses me off more. I managed to score a spot on a research project as a freshman, which was great fun and showed me I have what it takes to do real engineering work. That and I managed to get in club leadership, and have been scoring big thanks to that (Boeing Project Management workshop was four hours of admittedly boring essential education).
Research project was awesome though. We had twice weekly meetings where we'd go over the subteam goals for the week, and I managed prototyping and electronics. Rest of time was yours to spend how you wanted, as long as you got your work done. So I built a test bench, built electronics safety interlocks for our stepper drivers, did light firmware modification, and also was the errand boy for the grad students :v:

Nahhh, programming isn't that far different. Engineering is, at its core, problem solving. Lots of teamwork too. You're doing what me and Saza do in a different medium is all.

He was entirely correct, E&M is a tremendous pain in the dick. Really only way to do well is to do every problem you can get your hands on until you really understand the formulas. E&M is crucial though. Have fun with electrical noise and power stuff when you start designing silicon lol
