Okay, 4 days after my last post. *counts on fingers* yeah 4 days. Yesterday and today I had an exam. Yesterday in Design of Machine Elements, which went pretty well except for some simple stuff that I forgot. Today in Math for Engineering 3, which was good. The partial derivatives seemed slightly easy, but the integration was fun. I'm really starting to like this higher level math stuff. I don't know if it's a "want to take Diff Eq of fluids"... yeah.
So what has happened in 3 days? What could I possibly write about? Well, I was kicked out of the pool on Tuesday because I didn't have a swim cap. Okay. Still got 400m in. After shopping on Thursday, I am now the proud owner of a new 24 peso black latex swim cap. Quite stylish, if I may say so. 1000m on Thursday night. I felt like an idiot at one point because I turned my breathing a quarter cycle, so I was breathing out with my face turned and trying to breathe in on that stroke. Needless to say, I inhaled a good quantity of water thru my nose and mouth. But I did get back into the groove of things. Oh, on Wednesday night I put 2 new friends through a Butterfield lower body workout with some improvised core moves. If you don't know who Frank Butterfield is, as a SigEp, or I'll try to write about him later. It's Friday afternoon and I'm still a little sore.
For those who know Israel Lopez Jimenez, he has been accepted to a new job. Unfortunately the last time I saw him was 2 weeks ago, and I cannot remember when he is supposed to leave... Time for an expensive phone call. Hopefully get to see him once more before he goes to whatever country he is working in.
Tomorrow, Saturday, I will be climbing Cerro de la Silla, to Pico Norte. In the main pic of this blog, see the tallest peak? Yeah, up there. The approximate elevation at Pico Norte is 5971 feet above sea level, 4134 feet above the city. Many a photo shall be taken. Moosejaw, Voltaic, and Sigma Phi Epsilon shall be shown from atop!!! AHAHAHAHAH!!! I'm excited. its a 3.3 mile hike up the mountain to get there. Should take a few hours to climb up and a few to climb down. Then on Sunday I will be going to Cueva de la Virgen, about 15 outside of Monterrey.
Oh right, I'm here to study... speak of the devil. I have Mecanica de Fluidos in an hour. Therefore, I bid you all adieu as I go enjoy the 75 degree weather. Please don't hate me... Oh, Dr. Fletcher has told me that more people are reading this. Great!!! If you have any questions for me, please email me at iwilliams@ltu.edu I am always checking email on my computer and phone. I will reply as soon as I can.
Nos vemos
