-sulks- i'm not even a science student. I'm an Art Fart.Originally posted by the Bear:awww.. c'mon... someone with a handle of the most famous thought experiment didn't do well for math?
I hated maths. I cried outside my house the night before my A maths paper. Ok la I passed. got B3. but.. -vomit-
I relate to Shrodinger's logic philosophically, not scientifically. -cough cough- -
I still read it to Kris. We covered the first 4 chapters during our trip.Originally posted by av98m:I still read it from time to time, and I loved the movie adaption.

i think literature and history helps us to understand human values and weaknesses (as well as their consequences) better.
Unfortunately humanities (which teaches people to be humane) have been reduced to a 'performance' subject, unfavourable only cos few people can score an A.
So who gives a damn that we have lots of brilliant technologists who can invent weapons and does not have humanity?! -
shro-cat, i suggest this book..
teaches you how to teach math.. and probably in there, you'll understand and figure out the concepts which make math probably the most beautiful and amazing of the technical subjects...

Harper Lee sure did a great job with that novel. The characters in that book are still as vivid to me as they were more than 10 years ago.Originally posted by Kuali Baba:I still read it to Kris. We covered the first 4 chapters during our trip.
Shakespeare on the other hand is an overrated fraud who does not deserve his place in english literature. -
I did damn well for my O's
and it all went downhill from there -
so says you who does not understand the subversive nature of shakespearian playsOriginally posted by av98m:Harper Lee sure did a great job with that novel. The characters in that book are still as vivid to me as they were more than 10 years ago.

Actually I do think maths is interesting (philosophically) and I enjoy books like.. Fermat's Theorem and all. Unfortunately I only grew to like it after I stopped needing to be examined for it. hurhurhur.~~~Originally posted by the Bear:shro-cat, i suggest this book..

The problem is that maths teachers are often EXTREMELY BORING, and usually bordering on insanity and hollible social EQ.
It is also, for the most part, rather inflexible and doesn't allow me to bullshit. -

well, that's true
most math teachers are boring as heck... i remember my JC math lecturer who was brilliant as a mathematician but less than useless as a teacher
there was an incident where he mapped out a huge equation only to stand and stare at a line which basically said "the sum of x from 1 to n for n = 2"
it was basically 1 + 2 but he stood there and stared at it
i wish i had a mathematical mind...Originally posted by ShrodingersCat:Actually I do think maths is interesting (philosophically) and I enjoy books like.. Fermat's Theorem and all. Unfortunately I only grew to like it after I stopped needing to be examined for it. hurhurhur.~~~

Never paid attention in class
In the end my Uncle had to tutor me
But the funny thing was that I liked algebra
Btw I dun like math coz I'm lazy to think -
on the subject of books we love, anyone remember the teenage textbook and workbook?

So I misquote horrendously.Originally posted by av98m:
I love my A Level literature books though. All very perverse, totally amoral
I did .. The Country Wife (Play where this guy goes around trying to have sex with other people's wives) and one of Chaucer's Canterbury tales (where this married woman and young man tries all means to have sex with each other without her husband knowing)
and John Donne (seriously confused poet who was at different parts of his life obsessed with love, sex and then religion.) -
they never heard of cauterisation then
i've always thought of Jessica as one of the levers which pushed Shylock over the edge...Originally posted by elindra:But you cannot have a single drop of blood on that pound of flesh
