Hey whats up?
what up adam good morning to you
Good morning, get a good nights rest?
yeah pretty good. you?
Yep. I just woke up.
haha nice what are you going to eat for breakfast?
Actually I might skip it. I am out of money to eat with and also out of cereal
dang dude
I move out tomorrow so it isnt a big deal
nice chatting on this full time will win you a macbook pro you can sell that and get some nice food lol
How about you have you had breakfast? Lol maybe.
no breakfast i usually skip it
Oh why?
no appetite in the mornings i feel like im forcing myself and it feels like a chore
Yeah. I know people who say the same thing
you moving out of the states? where you from?
No just to my parents house then back to school. Are you enjoying this awesome weather? I love the fall, but I get bad allergies in the spring. What is your faborite season?
summer hands down I cant do cold
Nice why?
anything below 70 sucks I feed off the sun and warmth
What do you keep your thermostat at?
the cold makes my body tense up and it drains my energy lol what are some of your favorite summer activities?
I love to swim and hang with my family
thats nice what are you studying again? CS?
Applied and computationalmathematics emphasis Its one of the three math majors Its applied math
gotcha do you have a plan of what you want to do with that?
But unlike a normal math program this one applies math to data science and computing rather than to physics and science Yeah. I am going to shoot for becoming an AI engineer, or starting a company based around creating ais. What is your major again?
thats dope. I want to design User Experience with AI or VR Im IT with emphasis in UXD user experience design
Oh thats cool. Information technology Hmmm. I have nevef hear of that but that sounds pretty legit
yeah its designing intuitive apps
Why did you choose it as a major?
I always knew I wanted to do something with technology and I thought CS was the route but I took IT 101 and knew that thats what I wanted to do instead of just become a code monkey
Hmmm what is the big dofference between information technology and computer science?
So computer science I think is more like code and math science and algorithms IT is the building and maintaining of tech infrastructure so it includes, databases, web apps, web development, building networks, cyber security, cyber forensics, uxd, system admin and so on a so forth we also develop apps and thing slike that
Oh that is cool my brother in law does cybersecurity. Where do you hail from?
im from provo not too far
Oh wow, yeah not at all. Were ypu excited to go to byu or was it just something you did to stay close to family? I hear it is really hard to make it in if you live in state
ummmm i didnt really care about going to BYU to be honest it was cheap that was the biggest selling point
Nice. I didn't really want to go to byu at first and then I realized how big of a steal it was. Byu is such a great school and at such a great price! Then I got rejected My academic record wasnt a perfect 4.0 like most I applied after my mission and got in though. So I feel like it is a good place for me to be.
thats really good for you man proud of you haha why do you feel that BYU is a great school?
Are you planning any research or graduate degrees? Oh plenty of reasons. They have a great network and history of students getting jobs fresh out of school, they have so many degree choices, and there are thousands of young single adults my age. Who are members of my faith and share my values. The honor code is a big thing too. I kind of already live the honor code And have my whole life. So coming here assures me I will meet people that share those values or who are at least willing to follow them
That is very important What if you find someone that you feel strongly that is the right match for you, but she isn't living and up to par with your standards? lets say you guys date for a few months
Well it would depend on if she was moving toward my standards or away from them If she wanted a party life and wanted to break commandments it wouldn't work out, because we wouldnt really get along. But if she had low standards but wanted to improce I wou
she isnt moving towards or away
Wouldnt care
cool thanks for sharing
What about you?
I feel the same progress is key because I try not to judge, but they need to be on the same page as I am because I think that if I am going to lead a family then my wife needs to have the same belief and values as I have so that the children arent confused of what the parents are teaching them.
Yeah exactly. What is your ideal soul mate? What are their qualities?
I already mentioned wanting growth and progression. lets see what else.... somethings that are on the outside are obviously they gotta be beautiful gonna be honest haha athletic and want to be outdoors because I like that and I think some of our hobbies should align Someone who will get me out of my comfort zone good with children gone through lots of trials in life and have overcome them because I have so that we can understand each other lets see what else.... smart and intelligent. At least someone who likes to learn and is pursuing something
Thats a pretty awesome wife haha
hahaha I'm going for gold man the only acceptable expectation for myself And I think everyone has a right and can find someone that they want shouldn't settle for anything less
Yeah if you settle for something less you will always regret it and that is no position to be in for your marriage
yep where you from? you from utah?
No Im a vegan Meaning I come from las vegas... not that I don't eat meat, that woukd be terrible!
that a country? lol
No haha
never heard that before but thats funny
My parents recently moved to utah though
My mom moved from Vegas back to Orem early this year
Oh ok. My parents live in southern utah now
the reason I asked you where you were from is because I wanted to ask you what your Ideal dating time frame is before marriage
I want to get married in college If I don't I have a fear I will be forced to settle and I do not want that
so how long do you think is an idea time of dating before you drop the question? know what im asking?
Yeah I would say 6 months Or 12
why that much?
It depends on how immediate your relationship is It could be 3 but I would never go beyond three I guess I mean getting married not necessarily just popping the question
gotcha I think its just interesting to find out what people's opinion is on that at BYU
Yeah what do you see from other people?
many people say that they HAVE to date at least 6-12 months and then what do you know... they are engaged after 1-3 months hahaa
Hahaha thats crazy... yeah I haven't found the one yet.
sexual tension is a powerful motivator. (mostly joking) a lot of truth to that tho I hope you do
I love that. Only mostly joking Yeah me too. I would hate my life if I didnt I am just not big on being single
really? for me I would be fine if i was single but I do have a GF (surprise) and I love her a ton and I don't know what Id do without her funny thing is is that we both are and have been very independent people and we both say we would be fine being single for the rest of our lives
Yeah. I have been single my entire life and I hate it
until we are close to death then we would be feeling terrible because we have no one to pass anything down to why do you hate being single?
Because I have a desire to be really close to someone And maybe I have just worked it up in my mi d Mind But like you I won't lower my expectations She doesn't have to be a 10 but I have to be attracted to her
yeah man attraction have to be a thing, but be logical about it too I think you are a very logical person anyway so I don't think you will have a problem but I am a logical person and dont get emotions attached to things too much, but when I do get emotions in it its very strong so word of caution dont let your feelings get the best of you
Well I am very logical, but that can be a problem Yeah. I am very independent and have been my entire life. I feel like being logical and independent kind of makes it hard to find a good relationship.
why do you feel that way?
I feel like I don't naturally feel the need for someone else in my life mentally, just emotionally Also I don't work well with others. I thrive on my own. Tutors usually do more harm than good But I have As so I dont go to them I just think differently
so it sounds like you aren't really trying? (no offense) im just being blunt
And tutors are all about memorizing stuff and I cant do that i have to understand and a lot of tutors just dont They only know how to pass the class I don't have to try as hard as some, but school is definitely still hard
i mean trying to find someone finding your honey your SO your baby haha
Lol yeah I am trying but I recently have been a little demoralized I met this awesome girl and things didnt work out
ahhh dont let that get you down
Yeah. I am moving to another pond to look for bigger fish.
some equations just dont work out
What equations
man+woman=marriage
Hahahaha
ill be back i need to print something
Ok
im back sorry
Hey
just printed a cheat sheet for my physics test in 5pt font and .25 margin lol
Hahahaha its one of those classes
yupppp
What is the most disgusting thing you have ever eaten?
roasted cockroaches yout?
Holy cow what made you think to eat those?
it was a dare
Oh
I served with the Cambodians and they have an assortment of roasted insects
Wow You served in cambodia ?
Oakland/SF cambodian speaking
Ohhh that makes sense
you serve?
What else have you eaten this makes me curious
other bugs like crickets these worms I don't even know
Oh. What is the worst part about eating them?
to be honest its all mental it tasted like beef jerky if you season them right its tasty
Wow
its just the fact that you are eating bugs makes you want to gag
I still dont think I would eat one. I can hardly bring myself to eat sushi
lol its all mental game i love sushi
Yeah it is pretty good
Do you like Provo or Veags
Provo all the way
what do you like and dislike about it minus BYU
I like the fact it is a city Lots of and that most people are lds And I don't know
how did you grow your testimony not living in utah
The view of the mountains is spectacular Honestly I dont see how anyone gets a testimony living IN utah Everyone is so casual about living the gospel I vegas it is black and white There are no blurred lines
good point You are right about all that I want to raise my kids out side of utah to be honest but I love utah because of the outdoors stuff I can do California is too expensive
Yeah at the same time, to far from utah is rough
utah just has so much to offer yeah it is, but like you are saying its black and white From what I see, kids that go to BYU and is from another state have a lot stronger testimonies than kids from Utah because they know and have seen the difference and I give a lot of kudos to them
Yeah in nebraska you have no friends because everyone rejects you for being a member of the church Their parents tell their kids not to talk to mormons So I wouldn't go too far. You have a lot of potential for apostasy sadly enough.
nebraska seems too closed minded because its so conservative and with my field of study I don't think ill ever end up in nebraska haha I'd raise my kids in places where there is diversity in skin color and opinions
Good idea
I also just think diversity in those things makes it more fun when everyone is the same its boring
I have this idea
?
First let me ask you a question Where is the ideal place for you to live, in the city, on the outskirts of the city, or in the country
when you mean by city do you mean like san francisco, NY city or like provo
Well, a big city does it depend? I like the outskirts of the city because I can get the best of both workds
so i like living in the city because it has everything and conveniences that I need
I also like the outskirts of utah for the same reason. Also the fringe houses are usually very nice.
but if I want to be in the mountains I can be with a short drive thats why utah is so awesome because you are living in a city that is in nature
Yeah it is so awesome! Mountains are like the best part of provo! Not to mention the view they create?
yeah it is nice the red rocks are cool to in vegas too*
Yeah kind of. They arent really red though. The whole place is just kind of a tan color Because it is at the bottom of a dry lake bed
gotcja where would you live i fyou can live anywhere
Without worrying about a job?
yeah
Probably arizona to be honest What about you?
somewhere warm and by the ocean so maybe in the Bajas islands would be cool too but id get island fever maybe
Where are the bajas?
you know the peninsula that comes down california that is mexican territory? thats the bajas
Ohhh yeah I know that one
its really dangerous there if you go further past, but we are talking about the best scenario
It is like its own little branch of the continent Oh ok Yeah dangerous places are not at the top of my list? Awww I keep putting question marks on accident
favorite super power?
Telekinesis
why
Because you can do anything with telekinesis havent you seen the xmen? Jean had it and she nearly destroyed everyone You can rip people appart molecule by molecule
mine would be time control you would beat any other super power with it if you mess up or about to die then just revert back and try again also I think it would be funny to do social experiments without consequences Like: "what would adam do if I punched a hole through his laptop and threw it across the room? would he laugh?"
Oh haha thats true
id just do it for reactions and rever time
I would be so shocked, if I had a laptop lol
but yeah it would be cool to have super powers
Yeah. Have you seen i am number 4
umm maybe its pretty old isnt it?
I think. I just saw it on netflix the other day It was pretty good. It is about a guy who is an alien and has super powers He has telekinesis and it is super awesome
i think ive seen it its been a while tho
Yeah. What is your favorite reality tv show?
I don't really watch TV haha I don't really like reality TV either I only watch movies once because I think its boring to watch it the second time because I already know whats going to happen
Yeah thats how I am with books I can't read them more than once, but sometimes I can come back and read them after a few years I dont really watch tv either. Do you watch studio c at all?
no i dont never seen it
Seriously? That is crazy?
why? haha
They have some good stuff Some of it is really weird and awkward though, but I guess that is what they are known for
i should give them a try I usually dont watch TV I watch movies occasionally
Yeah. Do you have a smart phone?
I like to mostly play video games or go do something outside yeah i do iphone6
Just download byutv and the you have free ad free access to all their shows
thats dope
What do yoh do for fun usually? You
I usually go rock climb sometimes when im feeling lazy i play fortnite but I usually spend time with my girlfriend
Oh I feel like you told me that Do you play on your phone or on your laptop?
computer
Oh ok.
i sometimes play on the cyber security lab at IT because it has a really niec graphics card haha
They released it on the iPhone and I hear that it is really good quality for a phone game
it has one of the best rigs out there besides the animation program yeah its good but hard to play
Hmmm. I hear it shows you where sound comes from and gives you a competitive advantage I have only played on my younger brothers computer
yeah its a really fun game beating out League of Legends by a ton
We play on the same squad and it makes it fun Yeah. I am not a big fan of league of legends I had a falling out over it with a friend We both played different games. He played league of legends and I played eve and we promised we would try each other's games and he never held up to his promise
yeah playing fortnite with friends is way fun ive heard of eve never played it though because it seemed like a big time investment
It was kind of lame. Yeah the more the merrier
RPGs aren't my thing anymore
Eve is an online space game
yeah
Full HD 3d battles with huge spaceships and real consequences
could it be classfied as RPG?
You have to buy or build your own ship and there is a whole manufacturing process. Very realistic
because you are technically a captain
