&lt;p&gt;I spent the evening of Friday around 6pm-ish until this very moment; Monday 1am.  I spent 3 days cooped up in my room, doing nothing but work.  Studying linear systems, then to electronics, then to physics, then back to linear systems&amp;#8230; I had about 6 hours of sleep each night.  I hadn&amp;#8217;t stepped outside for a damn long time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I realized all the things that were occurring around me, because it felt like the clock stopped for a couple of days when it really hasn&amp;#8217;t.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All this time I&amp;#8217;m spending on my education as a soon-to-be engineer&amp;#8230; it&amp;#8217;s a damn lot.  It&amp;#8217;s well worth it, but damn that&amp;#8217;s a lot of life just slipping by.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I realized, damn, you have to like what you&amp;#8217;re doing.  You&amp;#8217;re missing a fucking shit load of things out there while you&amp;#8217;re going pen-after-pen doing mind numbing things.  There&amp;#8217;s no way a human spirit can stay sane doing this unless you actually like it. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I kinda realize why engineering school is so feared.  I don&amp;#8217;t know, I like it. It&amp;#8217;s not too bad.  It&amp;#8217;s just hard to think how much of my life needs to be paid in debt for it.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With all of these things in consideration, it&amp;#8217;s not a question of life; &amp;#8220;Oh, it&amp;#8217;ll be worth it in the end&amp;#8221;, or &amp;#8220;I&amp;#8217;ll be well off with plenty of money and time when I&amp;#8217;m done with this&amp;#8221;.  It&amp;#8217;s a simple matter of fact whether you fucking like it or not.  There&amp;#8217;s no other way to keep sane.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://davidhong089.tumblr.com/post/47437618716</link><guid>http://davidhong089.tumblr.com/post/47437618716</guid><pubDate>Mon, 08 Apr 2013 01:23:16 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Final project for co-op; proportional integral derivative motor...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/4efd294dd25654a67ce4fec9907af7aa/tumblr_mk3cd9bEeA1qdp80zo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Final project for co-op; proportional integral derivative motor controller&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://davidhong089.tumblr.com/post/46037747123</link><guid>http://davidhong089.tumblr.com/post/46037747123</guid><pubDate>Fri, 22 Mar 2013 22:01:14 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Played with toys all day and got paid for it!

Waving your hand over the contraption sends out a squarewave pulse that leads to a speaker I’ve yet to buy.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I guess a normal beeping sound would be sufficient, but I think I’m gonna spend some time trying to hook up a thumbdrive of some sort preloaded with J.Biebz or something. That’ll keep any intruder away&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://davidhong089.tumblr.com/post/39270233790</link><guid>http://davidhong089.tumblr.com/post/39270233790</guid><pubDate>Sun, 30 Dec 2012 21:43:07 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>I wish I was black.
