Some beautiful libraries for your soul 🌟
july 17, 2021
Hey guys! This last week has been pretty amazing for me because I’ve gotten a lot of work done and I’ve barely procrastinated at all! And I’m definitely going to make an effort to continue this. Also, have a picture of my tiny little workspace now! It’s messy now, but it feels more authentic that way :)
17th July - What is your typical daily routine in the summer?
I usually spend my entire summer in between a state of sleeping, eating and reading on my phone but this summer I’ve been super busy, so that’s been quite impossible :’)

Further Maths - Mechanics Mixed Exercise 2
Doing some mechanics questions to practise because it does my head in… I got this book from my parents earlier, as it’s an old present they found - looks super interesting! Today’s a funny day bc everyone’s waiting for the football tonight haha

Answers to the summer studying challenge under the cut!

I got a proof wrong on an exam. No points.
Then, I thought about it for fifteen minutes outside of the exam, wrote it down, nailed it.
I showed a classmate and told him what happened. He looked frustrated. He’d clearly had this happen before, too (haven’t we all?). He said, “Don’t you hate it when that happens?”
I almost said yes. What the h*ck!? No. No, I do not hate it when I can fathom a deeply abstracted concept in mathematics. I never hate that. I the opposite of hate that. Expecting myself to immediately understand topics like this is unrealistic. I’m proud of being able to do it at all. Who cares if I did it in the exam or within the next hour? I DID IT. It’s mine now. I can do it whenever I want. Missing points on that problem doesn’t take the knowledge out of my brain. How dare I be taught that my knowledge is useless because I didn’t have it right at that moment. It’s just as good now.
Education is not about the arbitrary numeric number ascribed to your ability to do things quickly in an arbitrary, restricted time interval. Education is about being able to do progressively more things, to understand progressively complex things.
Tenacity and challenging yourself far beyond your limits is a hundred times more important than getting good grades. Because, when you’re one of .4 percent of the population who possess complete knowledge on a very complex topic, nobody cares how long it took you to do it, or how well you did it the first time you tried.
Grades don’t discover new mathematics. Mathematicians do (even the ones who failed a basic topic in mathematics because their base way of thinking was too complex). Grades don’t advance medical research. Scientists do (even the ones who had to apply for their PhD programs 3 times in a row before they got accepted). Grades don’t make science fiction into real-world technologies. Engineers do (even the ones who dropped out of school because they wanted to build things, not talk about building things).
Knowledge is power. Skills are power. Grades are constructs. Never trade actual understanding for a semblance of understanding.
Guess what?
My results got announced !
The results are for my third semester in undergraduate.I am a Math major.So I had 10 classes this semester and I got 7 A+ and 3 As.My sgpa came out to be 8.58.I am super happy and satisfied.I am aiming for a 9 or above this semester and the coming semesters.So join me in my journey and see if I do it 🤭( Hey I did a little bit of advertising there lmao)
That aside today I did the following stuff
Revised Group Theory probelms
Solved some more new problems on Group theory
Duolingo
I hope today treated you well 😇If not then I wish you a good nights sleep 🌙
Love 🖤
Some group theory notes that I took today.
Yesterday I started reading 1984 by George Orwell.But I have also started two other books namely 'Men of Mathematics' by E.T.Bell and 'Music Of Primes' by Marcus du Sautoy.I have also decided to buy Anna karenina by Tolstoy after reading a post about it by @theclassicalmind.
A benefit of going to big conferences is that you get to learn about math concepts that would otherwise be outside your field. Such as
