You know you've been doing too much maths when... (1 Viewer)

lol. When I was writing my english AOS story for my half yearlys, I had a mind blank and couldnt think of the word "oval" so had to use "ellipse" instead

See the evils of Conics? D:

See the evils of Conics? D:

Yep. And it pretty much screwed up my story.

I was describing leaves! Who the fuck looks at a leaf and thinks "that leaf is ellipse shaped"?

You know you've been doing to much maths when...

- When you know pi to more than 30 decimals

- When instead of playing motorcycle games on the internet in class, you are on MathLinks trying to solve any question you can get your hands on

- When you are poring yourself a cup of coffee and you cant stop yourself from developing an equation of the fluids dynamics.

- When you see a statement and can't help but finding the converse of this statement and finding out whether its true

- When you see a train and always think special relativity (more of a physics one, but hey)

- When harder 3U no longer becomes hard

 

[Just.Snaz]

When you attempt to prove 'sleep' by inductions

 

[sambob_joe]

What rude word is +AFE supposed to be?

You know Fermats last theorm proof off by heart.

it's meant to be TAFE.

a dirty word round places of education.

Wow none of this applies to me thank god.

 

[Norma.Jean]

when you reach for the calculator to do simple multiplication

when you can no longer do yr 9 maths coz you over complicate it

hahah *raises hand*

also agree with the + - and therefore signs, also i will never look at the alphabet same...some including x, y, m, d without thinking of some form of maths

 

[vds700]

was at the BMX track at Terrey Hills today and I was thinking about components of the normal reaction force contriting to my centripetal force as I rode around the banked corners. OMG what a nerd i am. Still, had good fun

*Always write curvy 'x's in english.
*You stay up at 2am posting answers on the BOS Maths forums
*You celebrate the 14th of March by eating Pies
*Momentarily stopping in a bus or car, you think 'ooh a stat point'

Edit: Haha for my Trials in english I wrote a story personifying an electron, written in first person from the electrons perspective. Pretty creative for making it up on the spot I think.

That's me! lol

 

[studynz2008]

One good sign is when you see people around you with + and - on their faces. (Really can't get enough of alegbra hahaha)

 

[axlenatore]

- - Your notes for all your other subjects start having plus, minus, therefore and equal signs..

EDIT: (I still love maths! <3)

Thats just a good summarising technique. I use arrows, + - = as well as the symbol for therefore

hey we did that too!

BTW what mark did u get for that English creative story? Just curious to see how an English teacher reacted to something of that nature.

 

[vmoore]

- You reach out for the calculator to change the song you're listening to on your ipod..

- You watch the Olympic divers and wonder at what velocity, acceleration and air resistance they're experiencing..

- Your notes for all your other subjects start having plus, minus, therefore and equal signs..

- You attempt to work out the probability of eating a sultana in a spoonful of cereal..

Anyone else experiencing something similar?


EDIT: (I still love maths! <3)

HAHA

defs the calculatior-ipod thing.
and i try to calculate the prob in everything i see now! its horrible.

One of the weirder suggestions that i have read for extension activities for gifted students is to get them to write essays on the topic


"In what ways are transcendental numbers like running water?"

(This was supposed to be for year 8 kids, or something like that.)

 

[Hagaren]

-Your teacher makes a math joke and your the only one laughing.

-You know the model number of your calculator by heart.

you understand more than half of the jokes made in:

Um, I think I got 9/15. In their defence, it was a bit shoddy, could've been written much better. Might even write the same story, or a draft anyway, before, and for, the HSC.
