So today was our first ever ‘proper’ lesson since starting college. Topic, Power Functions! Learning this subject is definitely new to me even though I kept hearing my Additional Math teacher raving on and on about functions and things of that nature. Despite having learnt the type of graphs with its respective power notation, I can’t help but feel like I have already learnt this in high school. Maybe it’s just me. But what I learnt that is new is the name of these graphs. Like cubic, quartic and quintic. Another thing I learned that is new was the term degree. However, knowing myself, I probably learnt it in high school but it just flew out the window during the holidays. Hahah. I now can actually tell what is the differences between a polynomial graph and a trigonometric graphs! I always thought they were the same. -__- So far so good i guess. Considering that I have learnt what is an end behavior and REMEMBERED it! My memory work needs working. Get it? XD I doubt anybody would get that. I like the way the lessons are thought out on a day to day basis. At least I know what we are going into for the next lesson and what to expect. Although, working in groups is still awkward for me. BUT! That’s where government schools lack. GROUP STUDIES… -__-

Power functions… PART 2! Sounds like a blockbuster movie if you ask me. Anyway, today was basically explaining the concepts of power functions and how it would turn out in a form of a graph. I must say that math is interesting but I am horrible at it. I tend to over think through things and therefore make mistakes. I have yet to use the new calculator I bought. It is super expensive. Even after the ‘discount’, it still cost us a pretty penny. Anyway, all this time when I look upon a graph, I never knew what type it is. Till I actually did the homework. The question is, will I remember it? Things like, exponential, periodic and power graphs. I might get them confused later on. STAY IN MY FREAKING HEAD! -__-
But other than that, it’s understandable so far. It’s just the memory work.

It’s halfway through the week and I am still looking forward to college! I think… The only part which I hate about college is the distance. Why must Subang be so far away from Bandar Utama? Anyway, today, we were learning about a new topic, which is ‘Characteristics of polynomial Functions’! Such a long name… Again, this is mostly concept. So I could understand it well. Wait till we get to the harder parts. I would die! The questions were pretty simple. Again, I fell as if I have already learnt some of these in high school. I always counted the number of turning points and added one more to obtain the value of the degree. So it was not really hard to understand. Point of symmetry is a new thing to me though. However, line of symmetry is not new to me. I don’t really understand finite differences though. I should ask Aviel about that.

Anyway, we continued on… ‘Characteristics of Polynomial Functions… functions… functions…’ Now that sounded like a documentary in the late 90’s. Weird. Miss C. finally gave an explanation on the relationship of finite differences and the equation of a polynomial graph. This explanation would have been a lot better off told earlier. Hahah. But learning things slowly actually helps me absorb better, so I am not complaining. Hahah. We learned a few things on the “NEW” calculator. It’s actually very nice to use. Once you get the hang of it. Which will take a while knowing myself.

So early!!!!! Class starts at 9.40 am… I want to sleep some more. T_T Classes were only 50 minutes long today. So short… Nothing much to say about today, really. Just tired… We also learned x-intercepts. My mind is foggy about today. Can’t remember anything… The only thing on my mind is the requirements to get into University of Waterloo… THE STRESS!!!!
and thats really hard for me... CURSE MY BAD MEMORY!!!!

* My family knows their family... So yeah.. =]
AND i'm underage in this country... XD The good thing is... I wasnt even tipsy.... =D So we had supper... In Kayu... And had... 2! paper tosei! -__- SO MUCH FOOD!!!
guh...
