Do I work too much?

So today once again I was called into work for extra hours, for another day. Then while I was there someone called in because their friends passed away and they were having a hard time dealing with it. Now I am not upset that he is having a hard time dealing with it. I mean I know that is hard, so whatever. But the problem that I am having is that whenever I get asked to come in, I do, no matter ho tired I am, or how much I need to get done. I just go into work and work.

Right now I am working two jobs and going to school full time. So I manage to stay very busy. In fact I work six days a week, and I would work the seventh, but I take my Sunday's off so I can keep the sabbath holy. So as you see I stay very busy. Then to make it even better I am in charge of Gathering in the Grove this year, so that of course means I still really busy with that, then I just found out that I am going to be a temple worker. Now while I look really forward to working in the temple, I just don't understand why I make my life so busy.

Over the past few days I have been thinking a lot about what I like to do. And I started to remember. I love to play sports, basketball, baseball, cricket and volleyball. I love to camp, back pack, fish and bike. I use to do that a lot when I was younger. I also remember that when I was on my mission I made planes to come home and get into that stuff again, but now all I do is work.

I mean I have great things, so I cannot complain that I don't have any money. and I am able to get tickets out to the mission so that I can be with the people that I miss. So I mean that is nice. But still I wish I could do more fun stuff.

But yet every time I get the call I still head off. I think though that when I go off to school this fall I will not work as hard so that I can do more fun stuff.


On a side note I don't understand people at all. Like at work, we have self check-outs, now I know that they can be aggravating at times and that they don't work as well as anyone would like. I mean not even I don't like them at times. But all the same, just because it doesn't work they way it is suppose to, why in the world do you think that you can do it your way and all of the sudden it will work? I mean where does you logic come from? Then they tell you the best thing, I didn't want to do (entire thing) so I did it my way. I mean what in the world. Sure that is going to work or course I mean you want to do it your way, so of course that will work.

I never get people. So if you read this and are one of those people, well stop please!!

Sigma Notation!!!

So my entire life I have seen what is called sigma notation. It is used in mathematics to figure out the area under a curve, and I have always wanted to know how to do it. And finally this past week I learned how to use it!!

I was so happy when I finally got yo learn about this notation, that I couldn't get the smile off my face the entire day!! It is so cool. I mean here is the one last thing that I have wanted to know for so long, and I get to find out about it in my first semester of calculus. And the good news is that I have another two semesters of calculus and advanced mathematics!


Math is just so much fun. I mean why would you not like it?

Who I am

Okay so I am tired of facebook and the fact that everyone puts on their post things like when they are off to bed, when they are going to the bathroom, and what type of surgery they need to get that week. So I have decided that I would start a blog in which I could just say what I felt and let people know more about the real me.

I also want to create this blog so that I can let out my inner math and physics geek out, hence the title. And for all of you that don't know, the name of the blog is how you figure out the force of an object on a slope.

So truth be told I am a realy nerd when it comes to math. I have always been really good at it and have been able to stay advanced in it. In fact at my height I was one grade ahead of everyone else in math. Now I find myself in college and I love math even more. To me it is so much fun and is easy and has rules that are followed. There is always one right answer, and the rest are all wrong.

So this blog will mostly be about math, physics, and other sciences related stuff. So if you are not into that kind of stuff, well this blog may not be for you. You have now been warned!!
