Final review on Entropy, Enthalpy, and Gibbs' Free Energy then on to the nuclear topics.
Cooked early evening with hot noodles with egg and some fried dried fish.
No power for morning up this hour in the evening. I'm suspecting maybe a power post got knocked off by the heavy winds hence we are off the grid at the moment.
Also not updating much in my social media platforms to save phone battery.
Yesterday 3 dams released water resulted in significant flooding of the area. My sister's concrete made house the flood waters entered their flooring on the level ground hence they had to move their furniture and appliances on high grounds. Their vehicle had to park on a safe higher ground a bit far from our place. Mother is staying with my sister as mom's old wooden house has been flooded. It's the dogs who occupied the mother's house staying in the rooms to dry their feet including the cat.
On my part I was monitoring the flood if it's going to enter the flooring of my elevated cottage hut. It was the best decision made during the construction last year to have my cottage hut elevated to pave way for the worst case flooding scenario. Now my home is literally sitting above water. It's like a cottage hut in the middle of a swamp. The only problem is the lack of power hence I had to notify work of my SITREP and at the meantime sitting above the flood waters with just a few candles with one of them lit at a time to be able to carry out studies.
Still raining with occasional super strong winds. Flood waters subsided in height since the max level at dawn but it's currently constant especially with another round of damn water release from nearby provinces.
Studying chemistry. On the topics of entropy, enthalpy, and Gibb's Free Energy.
After this I will proceed on to Radioactivity and Nuclear Stability.
Heavy storm in my area. Mostly strong winds.
Doing the lab activity now in chemistry.
Changed my mind. Kinda unfair to return the shoe when I already run it 40km to date.
Will customize the shoe. Need to assess if I can remove that component from the shoe but with the mesh design I think I can actually cut that part out while still maintaining the structural integrity of the shoe.
Went to run the new addidas shoes for 30km. Was a disaster and the run was a torture for me. There was this design inside the shoe canopy on top in which it protrudes against my big tow. I was able to endure it but past 25km I could not continue anymore and had to walk and even walking barely is so painful.
Poor engineering for the comfortable run wear but the tech on energy assistance is very good.
I will return the shoe to the store at Baguio for a replacement of another design.
Got my new running shoes here at baguio.
Preparing for baguio travel.
If I am eyeing prospects in the class for the future company, I already have a count.
There are around 6 of them only and if they manage to be consistent until we finish the BSEE degree then I'd pick these people to join me because not only they have intellectual potential as engineers but they also have the character.
Attended Jumma'h.
Quiz on calorimetry and heat mechanism transfer is done.
On lab at the moment.
And I had not done the math problem sets yet due to lots of work activities.
Quiz tomorrow I almost forgot. Time to review the calorimetry and heat mechanism transfer topics.
Got a troll incident earlier. The first in the semester. Sad but stupid people do exist.
Started a review of maths from the beginning of the semester up to the current lesson.
Not sure, are we in the Q-Day already?
A news article dated Oct 14 mentioned chinese researchers able to break RSA using D-Wave's Quantum Computer.
Still at migration of some components. Will do another from a colleague's component within the day.
