Yet another disappointly difficult week. Apparently, I was talking to a teacher and I bore them so much, they got out their phone and left the room. When I finished speaking, they came back, almost as if they never left the room. Surely, it gets one thinking: How do we connect with the correct audiences? I do say, there is no indefinite method of doing this; everyone has their tricks of the trade. Take myself, for instance. I tend to somewhat use the term "You dig?" and "Yes." in order to answer somewhat compromising questions. Although this doesn't work with all audiences, it is able to sift out those who really don't acknowledge my existence, and those who have a level of caring But who knows. Perhaps you have your own method of doing this, maybe even more effective. For now, I think we can safely say that we didn't start the fire. Speaking of which, I found that I am performing better in subjects requiring less formulas. I mean, apparently, I came first in the class in IPT, randomly received awards from that strange English 1/2 yearly and somewhat succeeded in SDD. However, I barely passed the Maths exam, somehow earning a class rank of 4th, 53% in the Physics Exam, Not even 75% in the BS exam. What is this, Pablo, what is this? Certainly not hockey pads, I hope. So I propose a statement: Certain subjects require certain individual study methods. Think about it. Perhaps one may learn more from, say, a podcast rather from a workbook. Likewise, perhaps study comics is not the way to go with Mathematics, rather, attempt the questions in the textbook? It could work, under controlled circumstances. Now, a little something that someguy didn't warn me about before most of the exams: SEX. Yes, kiddies, let's learn about SEX. And you can tell your parents you learned about SEX today. Basically, SEX stands for: State Explanation eXample Here's an applicable situation in an exam-like environment: Why do humans swerve left when a car swerves right? State: Centripetal force Explanation: Newtone's 1st Law - An object in motion will continue in a uniform state of motion unless an unbalanced force acts on it. eXample: As the car swerves, the humans keep travelling in a straight line, even though the car has moved. As a result, humans will swerve left in a car when the car swerves right. Although this example was a bit 'iffy', you get the General Idea. Now, applying it will be as much of a pickle as recalling the formula for an area of a sphere. Ergo, perhaps testing via practise question should be used? Maybe. We'll see what Pablo or one of Pablo's industrially related associates. 'Til next time, young padawan. And guess where zis is?
