Patrick's Diary - 8/6/2015

Following the vehicles' streams during heavy traffic on my way home after work, I actually appreciate the girl's actions in the car in front of mine all the way through. She made her pretty face up through the rearview mirror in the first 15 minutes after I started noticing her, then kept playing with her long hair for the rest of the hour before I took the exit of North Creek to gas station because tank seemed almost empty. I wish I could have such a pretty girl in any car in front of mine every day. Anyway, it's not my intention to follow her all the way, I generally don't switch the lanes. 

Dennis had his truck carrying two big piles of fresh soils for my dad per his request in the last two days. My dad planned to plant some flowers in our front yard. Hornets built a big nest on one of our trees and my dad got stung by one of them yesterday. Dennis applied a kind of spray to the hornets in the nest first then took it down. I told him that I remembered we burned something to generate the smoke to kill the hornets then took the nest down when we were kids. Nowadays, everything becomes more modern.

Republican candidates' debates seemed pretty interesting, though I only caught the last several minutes. As I chatted with someone, modern politics is a totally different game because of the social media. Every trick the politicians traditionally played can be deciphered immediately by others publicly. So, in most of the cases, even politicians have to be honest and very competitive as soldiers in battlefields. 

This swiss watch often draws others' eyes because it seems a valuable. Actually it cost me 250 bucks several years ago on Overstock.com. I had put it into a drawer for quite a long time until last week because the cover of another watch given by my employer as 5-years service souvenir was broken. I guess the size of this watch may cause others' confusion. As a matter of fact, I didn't pay attention to its size when ordering online then. It's not as cheap as 50 bucks but definitely not a Rolex, and it may be only worth 25 bucks now after 6 or 7 years' depreciation. Ok, I will wear it for another 25 years if I can. 
After reviewing Section 5.4 - Indefinite Integrals, I will go to sleep.  In the table, there is a group of useful formulas:
