    I just finished mine! I had to go finish a 5 page packet in the geo lab that's due tomorrow and I just finished my thermodynamics hw. And this is considered easy ;) but I still suck at it :cry:

    and sorry for the crappy quality, it's from my digital camcorder.

    I spent several hours trying to peice together my HW for my Stretegic Management Accounting class. There's a ton of numbers to work with and a ton more of pages to read. I've learned (but don't follow) that procrastination is bad and doing HW early in the week is good. ;)

    Stick with it guys and do the work now. You will have a better future for it.

    I tell my own kids the longer you are in school and the better you do the easier your life is.

    Only if I could go back and do it all over again.

    the nice thing about school was that everything is planned out for you. since we were born, our lives have been pretty much layed out for us...k-12, then college. but then after you graduate from college, there is no path. i'm sure all of you pre college grads will feel this feeling when you are out. i was so sick of college my senior, but now that i've been out two years i'm starting to miss it. now i'm studying for the gmat to go get a mba. sounds fun now, but i'm sure i'll be extremely sick of it by the time i graduate.

    Yup, nothing is more humbling than when you graduate, or in my case, get discharged from the military and you have to go fend for yourself. I miss having my day planned for me where all I had to do was what I was told to do.

    I wish i was still in a protective generally rules free zone where responsibility is represented by occasionally actually going to class and not getting too messed up the night before things are due/showing up for class not so messed up

    I miss college.

    I would think 5.5 hours to sit around would not be that bad, but having 5.5 hours of homeowrk to do would deffinetly suck

    Does anyone want to do my thermo hw?

    Here's a problem I have to do,

    Inside a cylinder closed by a piston there is 88 grams of an unknown diatomic gas of a temperature 0C. The gas is then compressed adiabatically until its volume becomes equal to 1/10 of the initial volume. The change in internal energy is 17158 J. Identify the gas.

    F**K!!! I hate this crap!!!

    Oh, and I have 6 problems like this to do... some with 4 parts! :evil:
