Even without school, we had orchestra today. Talk about a hardcore conductor!! Oh well. We all got to hear Alexy play the solo for the Brahms Concerto; it was so lovely.

I was reading math; I almost forgot to mention a law I learned in DifEq: Mattuck's "Law of Embezzlement": what is the maximum you can embezzle while the bank account still increases to make it look unsuspicious. If y=money in account, r= compound intrest rate, dy/dx = ry-w, where w is the rate of embezzlement, a pure time rate. As long as w is less than yor, the embezzler is safe. I'm starting to get suspicous of Mattuck. What motivation does he have for teaching us such things ^_~. All in the spirit of DifEq.
