The Gambler  

So its been more than two weeks now.
Stats class has been BORING
but as the material has gotten more boring, or wait, stayed boring, the prof decides to amuse himself a lot more during his lectures.

SO today, he decides as an introduction to probabilities, he would play this song about gambling.
If you have the time, go check it out. It's a song by Kenny Rogers, called "The Gambler"...

THEN to top it all off, since we were also doing permutations and combinations, he wondered out loud why locks were called combination locks when clearly, the order of the numbers matter...so they should be called "PERMUTATION LOCKS"... haha ha ha...

i think i can survive  

tonight, i cooked my first official meal
well it was a group effort..but everything that was done, i knew what was going on!!
so maybe, just maybe, i may be able to cook myself meals consisting of one/two meats, one/two veggies and rice...and LIVE!!!

not too too worried now...the hardest part is to find cheap/good groceries! thats the next thing to tackle!
