Mathematics

I borrowed three books on Algebra today. Then now need to find time to read it. I know it will be hard as my standard is not there yet, quite far from there actually.

In third page, I am a bit blur. It states that mathematical induction is not a prove. What I learnt is the opposite of it. Interesting..

Look

I had a good news yesterday. Or more precisely, a chance that I had prayed for. Prayed very hard. I hope it will turn out fine.

Will talk about it if it becomes reality. If not, forget it. And look forward. Haha, it does not serve to make you all curious. =P

Have been thinking about the point to write a blog, to have a blog. Come across of many 'professional' blogs, which I find them 'special'. Nearly every entry, there will be a lot of comments. The problems are, they are by nearly the same group of people, writing nearly the same kind of comments. Just ponder, whether their job everyday is to read a list of blogs and leave comments just for the acts. Then what is the meaning of a blog?

I realised that I am not reading anything worth mentioning. I feel bad over it, as it does not mean they are meaningless. Just that I have no inspiration from them. Maybe I should read more.

Talking about reading, I realise that there are literature that are being ignored by the ignorant me. Saw a quote from friend's blog. By Shakespeare, and this reminds me how bad of me who never put in effort to understand his writing. Plenty to explore in the world of literature, and this is not limited on only one language. Faster get excited.

Tired

Getting more and more tired these days. Should be because of pushing myself a bit hard. However, no worry. It is still well within my limit.

Activities are still enjoyable as usual, just that there are some minor changes pop up now and then. Which are quite demoralising sometimes. Tried to change my mindset, and I found everyday is getting better.

Called back home last night. Glad that things are fine at home.

Life

Religion is part of life, and there is no use of arguing how to practice it. We should not view it in term of value, just don't do the math. It is just a way of life, a guide. We should not expect return from God, as what is ours is ours. Let the teaching fuses into you, instead of trying to live in written principle.

Quite true that there is a difference between the new converts and the believers.

luck

By the way, good luck to those who are waiting for local university admission results. It will be out next week!! Haha, quite a late news as it was announced few days ago but I forgot to write this out.

Book

Finished reading a book this morning. A very weird novel. The raw shark texts by Steven Hall. It is about a psychic man and his imagination. The world his mind lives in is described using the whole book. Only at the end, a newspaper cutting shows that he is dead after that and his doctor is detained to aide the investigation.

Shark that eat our memory, suck out life. A kind that lives in world of word. Follows the flow of information and thoughts. Evolves slowly with the progress of human civilisation.

Think

These few days, I am really controlling my mind. Preventing myself on spending money on unnecessary stuff. Like snack. I do not know whether this is good, but I have been doing these for long.

Long until everytime I go home, parents bring me out for meal, yet I cannot think of anything I want to eat. No favourite food, no hated food. No favourite past time, no dislike activity. Sense of desire disappears, or more correctly phrased is hidden. Out of sudden, I will feel like eating some thing, some much missed food. Remove the thought from mind, then it will be all right.

Only when I need to know what I need, I just could not think of any.

Holiday

Now is one-third of the vacation. Before its start, I set a few targets for myself. So will do a check on my progress later.

Promised myself to study. On topics of tensor, relativity, linear algebra and french. So far so good, only linear algebra is lagging behind. Finished cartesian tensor and special relativity. French could never be finished, but only to continue. If there is time, I would like to study algebra. However, it is quite unlikely.

Life has been quite good, just that I was a bit tired these few days. My determination is back as last time during my high school. Next semester will be a better one. Last night, went out for supper with friends. Only had a fruit juice, need to save money. Will be spending a lot in july..

Seems like my hope to save money is gone. NO a good news. Need to find ways to earn money.

Pray

Yesterday I supposed to eat chinese dumplings. Yet I did not go around to get one for myself. Called back home just now, I miss my family..

Just sent out the application, but late. I hope that they still will consider it and of course, even more hope that they will choose me. Pray for the best scenario.

Paper

Forgot to write down this last night. Yesterday, there was an article on paper about working world in a few countries. The one on Korea drew my eyes. It mentioned about how koreans place a lot of emphasis on seniority and it is sounded like worse than Japan.

The kind of weird situation of focus on age instead of experience really looks familiar to me. In school, people expect seniors to be better than juniors. And so do seniors think that they are better, for do-not-know reasons. I find it being magnified in hall. I agree that it is good to respect seniors, since as a junior we have to learn. However, please seniors do not expect juniors to respect you. This is just an over-pride act.


I am very happy with my progress with studies. It just makes me feel better. I need more books to support it, but I have to find a home for all those books. I do not wish to have my books wandering around homeless like me.
