those curves and intersects are really first order derivatives you know .... in other words, dy/dx ....Originally posted by KittynMeow:I guess I was able to handle the basic calculations in econs.... vs all those dy/dx stuff that I really suck at in Maths....
besides, econs require theory... which is something I'm really good at "smoking" out to score points... hahahahaha

I was reading about bankruptcy.
I want to be a bankrupt.
Then fren mesage me with a question. he has just started courting after this female.
And he jokingly mentioned that he can be her bodyguard and taxi driver. She got angry.
I told him to ignore her. He might have hit the nail on the head closer then he expected......and plus....if there cannot be jokes between each other, how is that going to translate for the for rest of their lives?
From I have been hearing. The famale is playing hard and loose with him.
Not committing herself, and yet tagging him along, on the pretext of 'testing' and 'still not ready for a relationship after her last failed relationship'. -
erm, making money?Originally posted by elindra:What is it you find interesting that you want to learn?
Working offers you that opportunity too and you get paid for it.
I mean if you wanna talk about "I wish I don't have to work and still survive", I believe most of us feel that way lor
But if you don't start somewhere you will just drift.
I don't have anything i can think of thats really interesting to learn

I remember that the night before my O levels paper for maths, I had insomnia cos the moment I closed my eyes, I saw all the mathematical formulae floating in front of my eyes..... it was HORROR!!!!Originally posted by ShrodingersCat:AAAaaaaaaaaaahhhh...
no maths.. plsss.. no maaaaatthhssssss
-shivers in corner- -
Hohoho this reminds me of the major fallout and showdown I had with my school principalOriginally posted by the Bear:you ever see schools which pressure the students who score Cs to drop the subject even when the student shows interest in it?
because it'll pull down the school average...
principals are now just bean counters... nothing more..
it's a sad cynical world we live in when schools are more interested in showing that they have achieved "SQA Award" and whatever.. and the management is more interested in those things than the actual education of the children...
|
I told her in her face that I think she is a farking selfish bitch who only thinks about the overall school average instead of nurturing her students interest
That bitch wanted to force everyone in Arts to drop Geography for Lit!!!
I started off really nice but then that bitch wouldn't even let me speak till I lost my head.
In the end I blew things out of proportion My mum got involved and then we wrote to the then MOE and stuff like that and in the end the school said we can choose either Geography or Lit or take both if we wanted
You know the school does not have the right to force you to drop subjects -
I know... but somehow I think my brain fails to function when it recognises it as Mathematics... as opposed to a smokey subject like econs....Originally posted by Fatum:those curves and intersects are really first order derivatives you know .... in other words, dy/dx ....
hahahahahahaa
It's true!!! When i took maths as an elective, I flunked both maths and econs. The minute I dropped Maths, I've got a B for econs.... i dunno how to explain that.... hahahahaha -
Yep, always threaten to use MOE against the school's principal.

Hey, i always failed maths in school, until i finally found the one and only tuition teacher who knew how to teach me...and I ended up with a B3 or something for maths, so there is hope.Originally posted by ShrodingersCat:AAAaaaaaaaaaahhhh...
no maths.. plsss.. no maaaaatthhssssss
-shivers in corner- -
hehehe Lit... another fav subject of mine... I'm a humanities person.... I can score at Lit and History without studying... hahahahah
-
maths is easy.
its stuff like statistics and those financial modules that are irritating.

Yeah i don't i don't get why I should not try to get the job i want. the assessment is meant as a way to reduce the candidates and I need to get a way around it to get to the next stageOriginally posted by the Bear:you still don't get it do you?
we tried to explain to you that they are trying to find a good fit for the job.. all you wanted to do was to cheat your way so that you will look good for the job... it'll only end in tears for both the company and you...
heck! even in no-consequence psychological tests and stuff like that, you're more interested in getting the 'correct answers' when there are none... they're for you to assess where your strengths and weaknesses are, not for you to achieve a certain grade or something...
nope no-consequence ones that i do are all honest. Not sure where you got that impression.......... -
Home!

thing is.. EVERYTHING except business studies interests me
and what happened? i've got a degree in banking and finance.. which i've only used about 0.1% of when i was working in OUB for a year -
i had a B3 for A maths.... but... yes, it is thanks to my tuition teacher and really a lot of painful PAINFUL 10 year series..Originally posted by Wanda:Hey, i always failed maths in school, until i finally found the one and only tuition teacher who knew how to teach me...and I ended up with a B3 or something for maths, so there is hope.
like kittymeow, night before my O levels, I sat outside my house and wallowed in depression, cannot sleep... felt nauseous.....
wow. until now still remember tt feeling...
then many years later, i act-smart went to take grad dip in BA. Then got Financial management. Suddenly the teacher started talking about graphs... and .. u know i nearly cried in class.. cos i totally dunno what the hell he was talkng about. TOTALLY don't understand... all give back to tuition teacher liao... -
I'm not sure I would want my children (if i have any) to be taught by a teacher like you....Originally posted by hisoka:Yeah i don't i don't get why I should not try to get the job i want. the assessment is meant as a way to reduce the candidates and I need to get a way around it to get to the next stage

ya. those 2 are my A levels subjects.Originally posted by KittynMeow:hehehe Lit... another fav subject of mine... I'm a humanities person.... I can score at Lit and History without studying... hahahahah
but I need to study cos my memory is damn lousy. REALLY damn lousy.
can forget names of characters one. -
my offer to be super blatant still standsOriginally posted by elindra:Aiyo I said that only to deter someone but apparently it didn't work
Then I just post the names on the front page for ppl to reconfirm but apparently that didn't work too
-
i got a B for my O history at the expense of my other subjects dropping a gradeOriginally posted by KittynMeow:hehehe Lit... another fav subject of mine... I'm a humanities person.... I can score at Lit and History without studying... hahahahah
all because of the stupid policy that you need a humans. for god knows what reason i don't know and can'tt hink of one

*me mysteriously appears in a puff of smoke*
With all this talk on schools.... I've got my S$0.02 to toss in.
The standards of our school teachers have been dropping drastically.
I've seen my tuition kid's Science teacher telling him that vernier calipers are used to measure dimensions in meters. And so, a reading of '4.10' on the vernier calipers corresponds to a length of 4.10 metres.
Or how about this.... an Ar of 1.0008 for hydrogen means that an atom of hydrogen has 0.0008 neutrons.
I'd like to slap the face of the fella who signed the degrees of these pseudoteachers. -
you shall have the honour of doing it.Originally posted by tare:my offer to be super blatant still stands -

its stuff like statistics and other maths that's irritating -
I'll tell you all a secret also ....
I'm a more "humanities" person as well .....
I've always enjoyed my humanities subjects a lot more than my sciences .... even in the uni ....
I majored in compy science not because I can compete for jobs with the indians .... but because of ego ....
I hate computers ... -
oh yes.... I remember those painful 10-year series exercises..... hated those too though they did get me a B3 for O levels.... so by the time i got to A levels, i decided to say bye to Maths... hahhaaOriginally posted by ShrodingersCat:i had a B3 for A maths.... but... yes, it is thanks to my tuition teacher and really a lot of painful PAINFUL 10 year series.. -
hey damn.. i just realised its NOT becos I remember that feelingOriginally posted by ShrodingersCat:wow. until now still remember tt feeling...
its becos I am having that feeling NOW!!! all those neverending essays....
