− | Hi, I'm Gabriel! I've been at MIT for one semester but I'm already going to sell out! (Thanks, early sophomore standing, for expediting the sell-out process). I also have only a vague sense of what I want to do with my life. | + | Hi, I'm Gabriel! I no longer live on hall; I moved to pika after my freshman year. |

− | *The phrases "what's up?" and "how's it going?"
| + | |
− | **Because really, aren't many things "up"? What do you want to know? All it accomplishes is the responder saying something vague like "nothing much".
| + | |
− | **And what is "it", which is going? Where is it going?
| + | |
− | *Those times in winter when it's more than cold enough for it to snow for like a week straight, but there's never precipitation, until that one day when the temperature exceeds the freezing point of water and it suddenly pours and things get soggy, and later icy.
| + | |
− | *When you're in a comfortable position and you need to grab something but it's exactly 4 centimeters away from your outstretched fingertips.

− | *Bagged tea.

− | **Why?
| + | |
− | ***Just why?

− | ****You're paying extra for the taste of paper in your tea.

− | === AP Credit & ASE ===

− | | + | |
− | <b>18.01: Single Variable Calculus</b>: AP Credit
| + | |
− | <br/>
| + | |
− | <b>18.02: Multivariable Calculus</b>: The ASE was surprisingly straightforward, stuck to simple applications of the material for all but 2-3 problems.
| + | |
− | <br/>
| + | |
− | <b>8.01: Mechanics</b>: AP Credit
| + | |
− | <br/>
| + | |
− | <b>8.02: Electricity & Magnetism</b>: It is apparently possible to pass the ASE without knowing what a Poynting vector is, even though it was tested in two out of not-that-many questions. I have done so. I have also learned what a Poynting vector is since then.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | === Fall 2018 ===
| + | |
− | <b>21G.101: Intro to Chinese</b>: A lot more work than one might expect, but the class was great. Attendance is also 100% mandatory and it runs 4 days a week, so if you're not a morning person don't take it early morning.
| + | |
− | <br/>
| + | |
− | <b>24.900: Intro to Linguistics</b>: It was fine I guess. I haven't taken other CI-H's to compare this one to, so I can't say whether it was worth taking or not.
| + | |
− | <br/>
| + | |
− | <b>18.404: Theory of Computation</b>: Great problem sets, Sipser is a great lecturer as far as I can tell, but I can't comment on quality of lectures past the first month because I stopped going. He wrote the textbook though the lectures are basically a slightly easier-to-understand but more time-consuming alternative to reading the textbook.
| + | |
− | <br/>
| + | |
− | <b>6.004: Computation Structures</b>: b l u e s p e c. They changed the curriculum the year I took it and there were lots of issues that hadn't been worked out yet, which made the class less enjoyable than it could have otherwise been.
