Pi in the Sky

There was emergency proctoring for the alternate exam time for the course I TA. It was at 10:30 this morning, and I got the email at around 9:30. I thought, well, since I probably couldn't make it on Saturday's exam time, I might as well go for this one. So I did. Bruce was expecting 20-30 people to show up. 9 did. And another TA showed up as well. So that's 3 students per proctor. Pretty good ratio, Bruce said. Anyway, I mostly just studied for tomorrow's exam. And it's nice to finally see who Matt was, even though we TA the same course... I almost gave him the exam when he came in the door...

So...tomorrow's exam. I'm absolutely not confident about it at all. My memory has been failing. My mathematical skills have deteriorated. I talked to Carlos about it (and it was a long and fun chat, by the way, which included various topics), and I think basically it's not going to be impossible, and everyone's probably going to be in around the same situation, so I shouldn't think too much into that (I hope). On a slightly unrelated note, it's pretty neat to talk to Karel as well.

Crazy scheduling time: Tomorrow -- exam 1-3pm, coworkers meeting 3-5.5pm, preparing for game 5.5-6.5pm, love feast 6.5-9pm. Saturday -- go to Toronto to pick up plane tickets and get a free lunch (woohoo!). Sunday -- morning service 10-12, marking 12-12. Monday -- laundary, get luggage, packing, costco, clear the fridge, pay residence and tuition, prepare for supervisor meeting. Tuesday -- pick up passport 9am, supervisor meeting 11.5am, Aaron's concert in Toronto 8pm. Wednesday -- return to Waterloo and return Aaron's computer 12-2am, traveling to the airport 4.5-6am, flight to Vancouver 7am. And if I can squeeze in a haircut in there, that would be good, too, but I highly doubt it will be done.
