Ahh open ended questions I don't do those very well :P

Is there a much better/easier/more efficient way of doing things then our maths system at the moment? If there was, would hardly anyone bother to learn it because they're so used to the current system and will defend its obsoleteness down to the wire
Read the article thingy in Ahmad's sig, tis quite interesting.

2) Why do my eyes itch? (hayfever)
3) Is my english teacher going to turn up to class today?
4) Will I ever be good at english?

i remember reading that he linked to it ages ago and all i can see in it is complaining about something while offering no alternative.
yes that is how i learn maths, if there is something so bad about it then how the hell do you suggest doing it o_O
of course nothing is perfect

Am I ever going to figure out for sure what I'm doing and where I'm going?
Is my birthday (on Friday) going to be the worst one in living memory?
How am I going to do a final of this essay when I don't have a clue about what I'm doing?
Am I smart and lacking confidence or just really dumb?
Am I on VN purely to delay the tasks I have to get done, very soon? (yes)

1. WHY DID I CHOOSE MATHS? Not only methods... but specialist as well!?
2. Why can't I stop listening to 'Ecstasy Of Gold'?
3. Why do I always procrastinate on VN?
4. Why do I have a strange obsession with predicting ENTER scores?
5. Is there a God?
6. Do I really want soggy fries with that greasy burger, that drink that tastes like water, those dirty ice-creams with pig fat in them...?
7. Why is the sky blue?
8. Why is water wet?
9. Do I really have insomnia?
10. Why didn't the world end a month ago?
11. Why am I still asking questions?

The answer to 10 is because the LHC doesn't start doing stuff until next year because they broke it :P

1. Maths or Physics?

2. Melbourne or ANU?

3. Why am I physically incapable of completing a task unless it is due the next morning (or the very same morning)?

4. What if I make hidden errors in every question in the exam and fail methods and fail vce and fail life and fail failfailfailfailfailfail?

5. Why is electronics so hard.

1. How the hell has this year gone by so quickly? It seems like only a few months ago since we were saying goodbye to the 2007 year 12s :'(
2. Why the hell did the Americans decide to re-create Kath and Kim? Their version is awful.
3. Where did I put my iPod?

Why do people think it's acceptable to not let you know if they are coming out with you until the last minute, when they've had day's notice?
