Things Not to do

So, I stopped by the BME building to copy down homework answers for the final on Thursday. There was a small crowd of people with the same idea - the prof has emphasized the importance of the homeworks as final prep repeatedly - and we started chatting as we scribbled down equations.

We were, of course, mildly bitching about the course and the grading scheme. Somehow this inspired this one guy to go off on his grades. I'll tell you, you should never boast about your 4.08 GPA in front of a bunch of BMEs frazzled for the final. I don't know what thoughts when through that guy's head - if it was some attempt to impress the girls it failed pretty badly.

Some people are just a mystery. Don't they realize that spelling out the steps to find the exact answer to the ODE isn't particularly endearing? especially when we weren't taught how to do so (or expected to be able to do so). Poor little pretentious nerd...I like nerds, a lot, but no one likes a show-off.
