For the record, I’m saying this for Rach. Math ain’t the Brit version of mathematics. That happens to be maths. That buffoon actually emails me and admonishes me saying that math is Brit version. When I point out that it ISN’T, then he changes tack and says that “I thought math was Brit ’cause it sounded better’. Dumbo. Of course, now for him maths is the ‘better version’. We all do know though that math sounds better, right?

Today’s math exam was ok, not really cheery since I ended up making quite a few silly errors. And conceptual errors. And…

Come to think of it, I only attended these chapters in school:

1. Sequences and Series – Deleted from syllabus.
2. Mathematical Reasoning – Already knew this; after all it’s basically the logic behind conditional testing in C++, also used in logic gates, and of course, Boolean algebra is used in search strings. AND it came for just 3 marks.
3. Er…the third one was…

To top that off, I missed quite a bit at Career Launcher too. Most of the biggie chapters like trigonometry, limits & differentiation, straight lines et al. Poor me had to read and prepare from scratch. I expect, um, only 80-85 in today’s exam. Compare that to the general reaction in our section, and I’m oh-so-bad.

Had my English exam today. It was pretty easy, and lengthy. Not to say that I hardly had attended any classes of English throughout the year, especially in the later stages. That meant buzzing people frantically yesterday when I took up studying for the exam somewhere around 9 pm.

Did I tell you I’m sore about not getting to participate in DCE’s Innova yesterday? Never mind. I was pissed off though, with my English teacher warning me beforehand – ‘No funny or sarcastic answer like last term Ankur’; and I felt pretty rebellious that I wanted to do exactly that. Quite a few plans discuss, I did with Rach. For example, we both conclusively proved that Yoda placed bets on Anakin becoming Darth Vader. It goes like this:

• People think Yoda said (in Episode 3 of Star Wars) “Good realtions with the Wookies, I have.” They didn’t hear him correctly, it’s ‘bookies’. He wanted to place bets, and possibly rig it.
• If Anakin DIDN’T turn over to the Dark Side, Yoda would benefit as the Jedi would still be in power.
• If Anakin DID become Darth Vader, the odds in favor of which in betting were at 42/1, then Yoda gets loadsa money for retirement.
• Looking a his bank statements in the Archives, it appears Yoda DID influence Anakin to flip.

We also discussed Seth Lord Darth Vikram’s poem, which we have in syllabus. I felt so irritated that I wanted to do some buffoonery in the paper.

I did end up making a few sarcastic comments, er quite a few. I just hope that our teacher still has her sense of humor intact.
