#sooooo much trig

[its-no-biggie]

OMG ive been summoned!!! okay okay lets see

first off. getting this one out of the way. i havent voted yet but i swear to god if calculus is winning right now im gonna be /pissed/ (not really lmao). not because its BAD or anything, i enjoyed learning about it, but its sooooo overhyped as The Hard One when conceptually its not even that interesting. wooaahhhhh find the area under a curve!! revolutionary!! like yeah the calculations are long and often difficult ESPECIALLY once you get into multivariable calculus but like. it gets way too much hype for what it is.

im tempted to vote algebra for how foundational it is but thats a boring answer. same with functions and relations. im also not voting for trig because i tutor high schoolers and im sick of it tbh. its basically just geometry a little to the left anyway.

ok at first i kinda skipped over geometry but you know what. thats a little unfair. euclidean geometry is generally very boring but higher dimensional geometry? hyperbolic or circular geometry???? where would we be as a society without klein bottles and mobius strips and hyper cubes and hyperbolic crochet. anyway if youre reading this you need to play hyperbolica its a simple puzzle game a la portal but instead of thinking with portals you have to think in hyperbolic space. where space has more. space. everything looks a little distorted and it totally fucks your spatial awareness its so fun. even something as simple as a maze becomes difficult because when you turn left 4 times you DONT end up where you started and it just doesnt compute in your brain. also the npcs are little robot guys and its so cute and charming. 10/10 excellent game. anyway yeah im not voting for geometry because a lot of it is boring but it does have its moments!

i went to university for statistics (well. technically actuarial science but its pretty much the same thing) so im a bit biased towards it. but its definitely the most useful kind of math for the average person to understand (aside from basic algebra) but its also like. really wild that it works?? that you can collect a big chunk of data and then determine correlations between variables with a high degree of accuracy. its basically the antithesis of what people think of math (rules and hard logic and one correct answer) but its still so rigorous and useful and so so important to understand

but more than statistics i am a huge fan of matrix theory. i really love matrix operations theyre SO SATISFYING and just really fun to do. especially when you apply them to linear algebra and solve a really messy system of equations that cant even be conceptualized on a graph.... augh its great. and its also one of the few kinds of math that i learned with a bunch of different number systems pretty much right away (bc its related to cryptography so using binary or mod 5 or whatever is actually useful) and that was really refreshing!! i love using different number systems. im not sure why its grouped together with set theory but i do also like set theory, its really fundamental like algebra (although its not nearly as well taught as algebra) and a lot of the operations are really unique so it kinda opens up what math is when you start learning about it. and of course there are a lot of number sets that i really like but that doesnt really have to do with set theory itself lmao

ANYWAY i think im gonna vote matrix theory. theres a few really interesting ones that arent listed here like game theory (ever heard of the prisoners dilemma?), topology (did you know that a mug is the same as a donut? also a straw definitively has one hole), and graph theory (i dont know that much about graph theory tbh i just think it looks really cool), but i really love matrices. i mean come on like

that rules. objectively that rules

DAILY • VIBES

I feel everyday is a new subject ... like we are learning more and more.. crazy how the human mind grows and absorbs sooooo much but in reality we think we’ve retained every memory or every subject in school but I bet if some of us sat here and tried to do Algebra 2 & Trig again we’d lose attention after 5 minutes within the course. . .

I feel my point is that after being locked up at home and only having some outlets of leaving have made me realize I’ve been careless of my actions... I feel I am slacking. I should’ve started school back again years ago. I feel everyone around has progressed a huge milestone.

I’m so proud of everyone around me, and am inspired to continue my adventure as well. I always remind myself too, I’ve achieved an even more passionate milestone before others. . . .

Which is the most beautiful and blissful emotion I can’t even elaborate on. It makes me feel sweet & warm.. I should always smell like honey when I’m around him.. like we have a certain sweet smell with all the emotion I have for this baby boy of mine.

What am I kidding 🤦🏻‍♀️... he’s a TODDLER !!

Kaleyo thinks he can run the house... 🏠

1. Sees mommy’s phone, assumes he can play with mommy’s phone ... mommy takes phone away... Kaleyo screams his head off

2. When mommy just needs to PEE especially on her time of the month (tmi, it’s my blog idgaf), Kaleyo will scream because theirs a gate dividing us... 🤦🏻‍♀️

3. Mommy gets up to get herself a drink of water into the kitchen, Kaleyo screams his head off!

THIS TERRIBLE 2s AT 14 MONTHS OLD CRAP AS GOTTA END. PERIODT.

... so when it comes down to it, just know I’m a hormonal mess with my cycle right now and my mind is all over the place...

Time to pop a Benadryl for my allergies and call it a night... 🌙 💤

Night ✨

WEEK 5

weekend recap

saturday

went on a hike/adventure with cindy, went to sabercat creek hiking place (secret garden) took a shortcut down, ended up taking a longer time than if we actually just went down the normal way.

she’s scared of plants and fungi??

aaron’s grandpa died, he was kind of sad

sunday

did some guitar research. a bit too much.

went to mt, we are learning ch 10 but we’re on ch11, that’s weird

tried to do math hw at night, failed

talked to aaron, the dude asked me if he should move on? and honestly yeah i think so. for him it still kind of hurts? and he said he wanted to balance it, to talk to me. it doesn’t hurt for me at all? also talked about what we wanted from a relationship, what we want to get out of it. i don’t think i want one or need one lmao.

monday

learned that “5 minute” was omitted from the syllabus and we have 5 min quizzes that are 25% ha HA

25 quizzes, 30 participation, ends 2 weeks before APs

kind of sad that my grade is stuck where it is now.

got into uminn!

maybe try plan? i like todoist though. cons: todoist premium ends eventually :(

struggled to turn in grad night forms but did it !!

KBrO4 = kay bro!

tuesday

song of today: nights like this

joined squat and squad yesterday — saw ronuk and kristine! i have 9 friends in there and i guess we’ll just never…talk about it.

was going to read chem textbook but just did lab calculations. will do them today during read or 5th per.

probably spent too much time looking up guitars, found a cool guitarist named yvette

maybe switch to plan?

in my brain, my cringe moment with joon always comes up, with that document i sent to him about rice and culture. more fondly however, i think of my conversation with walter. i probably need to get more in tune with things and not cry? every time. lmao.

i also don’t like talking to aaron about like extracurricular stuff? like great, his harvard interviewer really loved him. i shouldn’t seek someone out just because they’re going to a good school. also the kid is doing usabo chem only, and physics and maybe i should start studying for usabo!!

also maybe i should exercise.

today we thought there was going to be a five minute quiz but there really wasn’t.

so i think i have to fix my life now… how should i go about doing it?

wednesday

took awhile to wake up today. i was supposed to wake up early and study for 5 min quiz, but i didn’t.

lazy day.

i messed up on my quiz though, i forgot improper integrals and also the domain restriction!

*** you don’t need to add restrictions if they don’t ask for it!

it was easy though, probably need to review and get good since it’s 25% of grade :(

i completed HG Count during lunch though!

fry is absent today. we had the same sub during econ, he was kind of a yikes. we went to get our gov books and i bumped into prey who took an interesting picture of me!

when is a trig sub necessary?

after school: i binged stevie and ally videos and im SAD and i also want a girlfriend :(

also i’ve been lw seeing random gay couples around ????????????????

like HOW do you do that what th e fuck

OK how much time do i waste on the internet looking at gay stuff? ?????????????

niki is getting laid off :(

also i was checking my MIT portal and then bam i get an interview request

thursday

sooooo i failed a trig quiz. i also got a 99/100 on my cs final! :)

without me was playing near the A wing. tiffany wants to go somewhere out of state?

FUCK I didn’t write my applicant update. i had the excuse of waiting for grades to update. my lit grade finalized and ima sad boi.

YOUTE GOBNA MAKE ME CRY OMG YOU CAN DM ME AT ANY POINT IN TIME BTW I LOVE TALKING WOTH YOU TOO!!!!! Im passing w a 77 rn, shits bouta become a 65 SO fast, tests are 60% of my grade and this one only had 7 questions w/ 14 gettable points bc my teacher's a villain but I agree 😭 algebra sucks geometry was SOOOOO much easier 3: BUT LOL I HAVENT TAKEN PHYSICS YET I'll prolly take it in my sr year, next year I'm doubling up on college chemistry and AP bio if schedules allow it and my school requires a successful completion of alg2/trig regentz and I'm skeptical about that so yk BUT AHJSKWKDKWKWK MWAH MWAH SORRY I JHST YAPPED HORRIBLY

<333

HI KEYSSSSSSS HOW ARE YOU I HOPE YOURE DOING/FEELING ALRIGHT 💖💖💖💖💖💖
