The feeling to get something accomplished and tucked some marks away into my ever growing pocket is awesome. Although the passage wasn't what I hoped it would be who the heck cares, it's done and over, one more thing done and one thing less to worry about.
It all comes down to working on all the other work that has been piling in the back of my room. The ones got neglected over the last two weeks need some attention from me now. I really wished I hadn't done that, but I do it every single time. Well not true, shows how much putting some effort and planning will save a bunch of time.
So it comes to the end of the day, it's 12:11 AM 3-4 homeworks not done, test tomorrow on dumb dumb integration.. just because we're obviously going to use that in our everyday lives. "Hey look, I'm going to take the derivative to find the slope of tangent, at point x, y. I'll use integration to reverse this process!"
Calculus, the one course where we really question, do we even need it. OK, I can hand it to you, that you need it if you're entering one the sciences as you need in your year 1 pre-req or whatever. Of course engineers and physicists, you would need it as well, but everyone else out there in the world who gives?!?! I found this process a phenomenon since grade 9. In a daily situation I would be required to pull out my trigonometric identities and functions to solve for the angle, and to calculate the conditional probability! Don't think so... My thoughts on math. That one course that I dread through, not so much this year even though it's calculus. That's just due to a pretty good teacher that keeps me entertained. Record 11 minute lesson for a whole unit <--- other than the fact that I came to school 15 minutes late and missed the whole lesson.
Again to reiterate it's great having finished my internal oral commentary, long live Hamlet!
