1 paper down!

Just finished Algebra II exam earlier in the evening.. quite a fair paper i would say..

I had really grown to enjoy math in sch more than anything else, not that the subject is easy, it is not.. But the culture surrounding it makes it so enjoyable! My friends there are really helpful and they dont mind discussing their solutions and method of thinking

For the past few days preparing for this paper, I think i spent at least 1/3 of my time discussing math on the phone (think the phone bill this month can kill).. haha.. i think throughout this 3 sems we have sort of built a network and u will have someone to turn to in times of trouble, even when the lecturer cant be reached (coz out of office hr).. it's quite fun to hav math discussions beyond midnight though i'm often brain dead by then.. haha and on the eve of the paper (yesterday), my phone just kept ringing non-stop.. wha discuss until my mouth went dry

Lecturers were easy to relate to as you dont feel there's a gap between their phd status and u as a student.. and consultations are very often, extremely inspiring because u suddenly see the 'light' and everything became so logical u can make connections everywhere.. and u start making those thms and definations as a part of u, as something so common sensical.. when this stage is reached, u are almost there! haha!

Think this is quite unlike in arts subj where it's more of independent work.. and esp history.. ahh i'm having real difficulty making meanings from what i read, much less connections.. partly because my hist knowledge is a bare minimum and i'm all along studying science subjs.. my seminars i dont even know how and where to start, coz they are things i've not heard at all before, plus really no time to invest in the research.. haiz.. sometimes it really makes me wonder if i'm being rational by making the decision i have made last yr.. or should i... do as my cal. lect. hopes?
