righto. i've finally glanced through ALL my fucking readings (close to what, 1000 pages) plus lecture notes plus summaries by fellow classmates. and the word here is glanced.
so hopefully for the exam tomorrow, i'll know where to flip to and *hopefully* copy blindly. *sigh* at least i did pretty alright for the essay on Mulan. heheh. just waiting for the rest of my marks to come in. don't think i'll score that much for the class discussion/group leader thingy cos our group didn't do too well, considering we were the first ones. didn't really know what to expect. hmm. what a boring post. ok, a quiz, i say, a quiz will liven things up.
| What Irrational Number Are You? | |||
You are √2 You are in good company, many other square roots are also irrational numbers. Just by being a square root you have been branded a radical. You are considered very attractive, especially by Europeans (at least on paper.) You fear that a relationship with another √2 may somehow end up complex and ultimately imaginary. In reality, only another √2 will make you whole. Your lucky number is approximately 1.41421356 | |||

square roots have always fascinated me. what are they for?? what's the purpose of square roots? who came up with the idea of the square root and why the name? it sure ain't self explanatory to me. at least now i know what factorials are for (thanks YC). so what the hell do square roots do?
hmm. oh wells, more time for contemplation after friday. gee, i can't wait. especially since i have this awful premonition that i won't be doing too well for my research and methodology paper *sigh* oh wells. rambly post this has been. wells, it IS 4am after all. gotta wake up bright and early for my paper. wish me luck! *crosses fingers*
