I realize that the number of entries which I have promised to write, in one place or another, is mounting and that I should really keep track of them somewhere. Seeing as how Notepad is not the most comfortable place to keep notes like that, and Post-it Notes seem to inspire something akin to rebellious stubbornness in me due to their constant presence, I think I'll just make a list right here in Diaryland, where the entries are going to end up anyway.

In no particular order, I promised that I would write about:

• The "politeness" motivation
• Weakness of another sort
• Textbooks, this year and in general
• The usefulness of trig functions
• My ideology
• Musings on the symbolism of the fact that an invertible matrix multiplied by its inverse results in the identity matrix
• My physics TA, an alpha female
• What I'm going to do if/when I go to Vancouver
• More sophisticated understanding leading to appreciation (of myself and my parents)
• Becoming more distant from my friends

Perhaps the list is running a mite long due to my excitement about making a list at all. Well, we'll see what happens.
