#mint studies

Okay, so this semester has been really rough on me and I have a million things to cover between now and finals. I've been wanting to do this study motivator by @sub-at-omic-studies for a while now so I'm going to be doing some studyblr stuff for the next two weeks to finish out my semester strong (as best i can). I'll just be doing the first half and I'll see if I want to keep going for personal reasons after this.

Day 1: What subjects are you studying?

I'm a double major in physics and math. Right now I'm taking Thermal Physics, Nuclear Physics Lab, PDE's and Fourier Analysis, and Complex Analysis

TODO Today:

- Work on my take home test for CA

- Write 1000 words for my research essay

so i just woke up from pulling an all nighter for a presentation i did this morning. luckily i got full credit! unfortunately the grind is not over because i have to do a lab analysis tonight that i present tomorrow too

Day 3: Where/When do you get most of your work done?

usually it's at the university library in between my classes. (other times it's intermittently though the middle of the night)

TODO Today:

- Final lab analysis report for defense tomorrow

day 1 was overwhelming and my test came out worse than i wanted but complex analysis is HARD for me so i'll take what i can get

What inspired you to take the subject(s) you're studying?

when i was a kid, it started out that i wanted to know more about the particles smaller than the proton which led me to the standard model and all of particle physics. as i continue my education i continue to fall in love with all the interesting mathematics that we can apply to the real world. at this limit i ended up finding out i love math for maths sake too! i still want to go into particle physics but it's much more tangible now that's ive actually done some research internships

TODO today:

- finish my research essay

- write my presentation that goes with the essay
