you can fuck right off
with your mathematical hugs.

Fluffeh hugs all the way! *hugs fluffily*.
How goes it?

Yay for the hugs of mathematics!
They are cool and sensuous, like slipping in to a silk gown after a bath.

I am good today. Not happy being at work, but I can make a start on my writing.

Hows goes yourself?

Je suis tres bonne
J'ai mathematique :)

Translation, from 16-year old French:

I am very good, I have mathematics :)

Oh hell
I can read it, but not a clue how to reply. Damn you my putrid and shrivelled up language glands!

Alternatively
you could learn French?

Trop difficile, bien sur.

The joys of babelfish
Particularly when my French teacher took someone's coursework that had been done on it and translated it out in to english for us as it would read to a french person. Babelfish can't do grammer sadly, and I like doing wordy replies.

Oooooooooh!
Mathematics *rocks* my sweet, remember? :)

I hate the mathmatics.
Makes my head hurt : (

I'm sorry BGB
have a *hug*

Thanks Edmund.
I'm waiting for my bookeeper to turn up so she can do all the nasty mathmatics that makes my head hurt.


Yay for Jacky.

I wish I could pay someone to do mathes for me.
But no. Apparantly you have to have maths to do an electrical engineering qualification. Who'd have thought? Electricity is just "Press button and big spark!"

I can just about stretch to long division and then it all gets a bit confusing.
I can draw nice pictures though : )

Skillz
we all haz them :)

I hate long division
I can differentiate, I can integrate. I can work with trigonometry, stats and functions. But I've never been able to do long division.
(Potty Jag har smör i min rumpspringa, Wed 13 May 2009, 9:11, Reply)

I had to learn
Polynomial Long division.
That was fucked.

linear algebra is much more fun. As much as maths can be fun at least.

See?
you're coming around to my way of thinking :)
(Eds Meds Mathskillz=1,Socialskillz=0, Wed 13 May 2009, 9:13, Reply)

nay
I just enjoy understanding what I'm doing!!
(Poppet some assembly required., Wed 13 May 2009, 9:15, Reply)

Yay!
Understanding :p

Thats the best bit of maths
The joy if seeing what's going on in a complex formula, manipulating it to your own will and purposes and getting exactly the result you wanted.

It's a bit like playing with genertics to make a man with a monkeys tail and seeing it being born perfectly.
(Potty Jag har smör i min rumpspringa, Wed 13 May 2009, 9:19, Reply)

Yup.
Mathematics isn't about numbers, it's about being able to think in an abstract way. Part of the joy of pure maths is just that - it's purity of processing, and I love it for the fact that there's no benefit to it, other than the knowledge of doing it for its own sake.
(Eds Meds Mathskillz=1,Socialskillz=0, Wed 13 May 2009, 9:22, Reply)

I just don't get it half the time.
Hence why I dropped down a maths level.

Now I understand it all it's much more enjoyable.
But I prefer writing and blowing things up more.

"blowing things up"?
ftw

Btw, if you're watching House - Hugh Laurie was edumacated where you're going to be living O_o

as a former scholar of the same institution if you and BF want a tour, please let me know :)

Yay! Mathematical hugs.
* gives the hug of pi squared *

* don't worry - that's just a normal-vector *
