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.

My current online presence is now located at gkammer.scripts.mit.edu.
*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.

== Things That I Am Studying ==
+
=== 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.
+
<br/>
+
<b>6.0001: Introduction to Computer Programming</b>: I learned python the day before the exam. The exam wasn't hard, just make sure your IDE actually has a built in help function.
+
 
+
=== 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.
+
 
+
=== IAP 2019 ===
+
 
+
<b>Chinese Calligraphy</b>: Probably the most interesting/fun class I've taken. It was a great way to spend IAP doing something other than cramming for exams, writing papers, etc, but still getting HASS-A credit.
+
<br/>
+
 
+
=== Spring 2019 ===
+
 
+
<b>6.046: Algorithms</b>
+
<br/>
+
<b>6.009: Fundamentals of Programming</b>
+
<br/>
+
<b>11.158: Behavior and Policy: Connections in Transportation</b>
+
<br/>
+
<b>14.01: Intro Micro</b>
+
<br/>
+
<b>21G.102: Chinese II</b>
