My school's video game project is done, now I have nothing to do but study some more.
About sketching, that is.

Since this is a juounal, I'm writing down the memorable thing that happened to myself in math class.

This was in the seventh grade.


We were working in the felid of Plus-es and Minus-es, when the teacher said something across the lines of;

"You ever wondered why the heck we study all this?"


Indeed, who ever does substractions of Minus Eleven - Minus Five?


Somebody said, "Because it makes us look hot."

To which the teacher responded, "You got half of it."

The classroom was shocked.


The teacher continued;

"You're going to be doing math all your life. You even need to know how it works to get a job, if you're going to finances or teaching.
"If you can do good at math, you'll have better luck at finding jobs."


(And that's in the category of looking attractive), I thought.


"But you know, you don't have to know what Minus 6 - Minus 4 Equals to live out there.
Pretty much all you need to know is how cheap a Thirty-Percent-Discount is"

"So, I want you guys to think why we learn these things. That's your homework for today."


This was one of the most philosophical, or at least sentimental, lecture I have ever had.

I don't remember what my answer was, but I guess I can always come up with a new one.
