#min vs sp24

[studywith-minmin-shelved]

[28/4/24] GET ME OFF THIS RIDE! I knew matrix groups was gonna be hard but why do I have so much to do for this class? the proofs start coming and they don’t stop coming!

on other news, Lie theory is one of the most eye-opening field of study I’ve been exposed to. (min, you say that about every second thing)

[studywith-minmin-shelved]

[5/6/24] wow im back so soon? yes, it is to complain about matrix groups again. I may have girlbossed too far w my paper here but its too late to change. NEVER BACK DOWN NEVER WHATTTT (give up on my dreams and lie down)

I am GOING to finish this proof whether it kills me (I could never be a mathematician)

[3/21/24] hi it’s been a while! I’ve been so busy with work and studies and trying to be a person that I forgot abt this.

im kinda dreading an upcoming gauntlet but the snow looked rlly pretty a few days and reminded me that hey sometimes it’s not so bad.

got a lot of things going on tho! posts will be sparse.

Min vs SP24

I'm excited about my classes this semester, so why not talk about them here. (I'm procrastinating an email I have to reply to and a bunch of job stuff I need to set up)

Intermediate Quantum Mechanics

I didn’t do so hot on my first quantum class so I’m glad for the do over. I’m appreciating the heavy emphasis on mathematical formalism this time

Particle Physics

Ooooooh I’m most excited about this one. It’s supposed to be an undergraduate level introduction to the topic. I hope it will build some intuition around the QFT I’ve been studying on my own. 

Matrix Groups

I fell in LOVE with algebra last semester and I’m really curious about Lie algebras so I hope this class will FINALLY tell me more about Noether’s theorem. 

Circuits

I’m only taking this class because I have to. 

Data Analysis and Research Techniques in Astronomy

I forgot I was on the waitlist for this one lmao. I’ll check it out but I’ll probably drop it anyway to focus on research.

and then research + TAing as usual. Hopefully, I get to TA the Lagrangian mechanics class because it's my favourite physics class here so far.

Here's to building better study habits this semester!

[01/22/24] Day ???: Let's try this again.

So, I kinda fell off the whole blog thing midway through break. I trudged further along the QFT course but did not end up finishing it. I did finish the tensor calculus textbook though! Submitted most of my summer applications as well.

I've been busy moving back to college (Boy, the journey there is so convoluted!), but classes just started so I thought I might blog about that now.

(Yes, the trip back involves a 6hr flight AND a long ass car ride)

So, hi again! I'm Min, junior in physics. I'm really excited (and nervous) about the classes I'm taking this semester.

I'm gonna use #min vs college for my undergrad journey and #min vs SP24 for this semester in particular.
