After yet another long hiatus, trying to write every week but failing, at long last I'm writing an update! Things here have been going well, but busy. School and work, as usual.
So first off, school--classes are going well, and I'm really enjoying my classes overall. Differential equations remains the main source of homework, though Fundamentals of Mathematics can provide time-consuming homework occasionally. I've had at least one test for all of my classes (except Math Seminar, which doesn't have tests), and I've had more in Music 101 and French 201. Amidst it all, though, I still find time to spend on work, friends, and of course my adorable wife.
On the work side things are going well. I've had several MCNP codes run and we're starting to learn more about the detector design that we are considering. I'm moving on a bit with MCNP as well, now learning POLIMI which will take my MCNP codes a step further by showing us more about what happens after the neutron is absorbed. Of course, nobody in our group has used MCNP-POLIMI yet, so I get to be the one to figure out how it works...I'll be keeping my fingers' crossed.
In other news, Julie and I are strongly considering a study-abroad this summer in Berlin. We're both excited about the prospect, and hopefully I'll get the chance to tour around Europe a bit (I'll only be in Germany for a month--Julie will be there two). We'll keep posted as things progress.
Well, those are the major details--if I can start posting weekly as I've intended then I'll probably be giving more details, but I figured I better get one out today before another week passes by.
