optimism.

so last week was spring break. i didn't do much studying throughout. probably deserve to be smacked for that. only got to write some of the code for the lab for digital comm and did some reading for that class as well. think hw and lab are both due on wednesday.

a few things happened over the spring break that deserve to be mentioned. one of the good things that happened is that i got to go to the rec center and play bball almost every other day. that definitely helped in terms of getting my body in shape and staying physically healthy. i realized that exercise is essential if i want to take on more difficult tasks mentally. there is definitely a strong connection between the mind and the body.

on wednesday, my advisor invited all of us to go eat dinner at this new chinese restaurant. i met this other master student who just graduated from UT austin. he also studied telecommunications. he just finished his program and was on his way to cupertino to work for apple. that made me feel pretty good about my future job outlook. i'm pretty sure he only did a master of engineering, which means no thesis. so that's something to be optimistic about.

for the second time ruby went to the rec with me. she went swimming while i played basketball. =) that makes me happy. think it'd be nice when we find an apt together, kinda tired of not having a place of our own.

totally going to focus on school again starting tomorrow. going to finish the year on a high note. + oil!
