Ah, studies and nothing more.
Oct. 14th, 2024 06:11 pmIt's getting cold out! Last Winter, I was heavily active in going for walks. My desire to be outside was great, etc. Currently, I can't imagine feeling the same way this coming Winter. I'm sure I'll still make it out sometimes. Maybe I'm just adjusting to the cold...
Today, I did two hours of studying how to read echocardiograms. I have a 12 hour course which I finished once before, it's on Edx free of charge, if anyone else might be interested. I don't know if I'll really get proficient at it or not. The first video outlines what a standard course for a certificate that is officially recognized is expected to teach. Maybe if I just do this course to the amount of hours that it asks for the practice, that will suffice. I'm definitely picking up some stuff. My one problem with the course, is that I don't think it actually shows what a healthy heart looks like enough! It specifically goes over a selection of common heart ailments and shows you how to spot them. But I sort of wish that it spent some time teaching what a healthy heart looks like. Oh well.
Still preparing my hexagon bases. I don't even know if they'll really send me these projects in December or not, but I don't mind preparing some fun grids to work with. I started exploring some really fun triangles related to the dynamics between hexagons and squares. Of course 30/60/90s are there, paired with 30/30/120s, which 2x make a hex!
Then, if I measured correctly, I think I'm also looking at 30/45/105s with 60/45/75s. There is a way to fold a square which makes hexagons just one snip across a line to make. In order to get to it, those two triangles show up, in tune with 120/120/60/60 square grid.
Every day, I'm hoping to find something fun and exciting to get up to. My studies keep me nicely occupied, but I greatly would love some more social time. Not really sure what I'm supposed to do to improve my social situations.
