nothing much so far, except a minute pain inflicted to my chest, and the brief lingering sensation in my sensory memory of my fingers suffering from frostbite while pressing calculator keys and my limbs trembling.

today was stats 1.

its kind of deja vu all over again, reminiscent of my lifelong love-hate relationship i harbour with regard to mathematics. i never saw the purpose and beauty in mathematics, but rather it was more of a common understanding that it was an obligation to study this field for my pursuit of academia. and it kind of helped that im not particularly weak in this area, so, the nature of the relationship gradually became a neutral one.

for one thing, i remember my mom telling me, with a wagging finger, that the only subject that is easy to get 100 marks is mathematics because there is only right or wrong, no subjective answers. and i kind of liked that.


much to my chagrin, ive lost 6 marks due to carelessness [of which the mistake i only realised too late and did not have time to correct] but besides that im pretty glad i managed to tide through without panicking or choosing the wrong tests to calculate the answers. not too bad at all. now it will all depend on how well everyone else fares. hopefully i wont do too badly.


met wife today.
she looked happy, but a little tired.
it was a nice feeling.
