Christmas with Quantum Mechanics
Christmas is wonderful time, although not without challenges. Particular challenge for me is to keep mind fresh and not sleep all the time. I like the atmospehere of going to saint masses and eating good food (with couple of drinks) and stuff but as always I felt a little bit lazy.
So to exercise my brain a little I found out this course in quantum computation. It was great fun in short. I was constantly on the edge of my cognitive possiblities, but the material was made crystal clear. I developed a particular method to finish one module at the time in the afternoon and rehearse reading part during mornings. I had a little bit of crysis on first day of Christmas but managed to carry on half consciously.
And finally on the return home I passed the test with 75% score.
