3 days left to the BIG DAY!

Yes it's the big day 7 may, for me, and for the country.

GEs are simply distracting! Having to catch up everyday on the news, reading what the opposition has to say, can really take time away to study, given that I still have things to catch up with. Can't wait for my exams to be over, but by the time exam's over, which fool will still go back on the news and catch up everything now? Me lor... I shall read out more about Singapore politics, and be in the position to vote (imagine if I have the chance). Since I will be entering the civil service, this issue seems very important now to ponder about.

I really hope I can tide over two core papers on saturday. I haven't touch 317 like now... I hope I can understand everything and do the paper with ease. And Calculus is time consuming because need to practise questions. Especially when the laptop is on, your effectiveness slows down by alot.

Catching up with GE, and studying for math and physics exams, is totally a different world. GE is so applicable to life, what we are fighting for as a nation. Math and Science is like... why am I studying all these? What's the use? I see no meaning. The more I study, the more I get demoralised, the more I surf net. If this continues, my interest in this arena will just drop... How to be a convincing teacher? Talking about convincing teachers, I died while teaching my student yesterday. I think she and her IP stuff will shorten my life for two years everytime I go there.

I want to learn the applications of Math and Stats in real life. Please let me learn it! I hope the higher level topics are not as dull as now. What Green and Stoke's Theorem, now it just makes no sense seriously. Continuity... Partial derivatives... so what if you know how to calculate the integration and get it right? So what? Although I'm a big fan of Calculus, I don't see the meaning now. That's the flaw of a 6k education.
