Weapons of Math Instruction

At New York's Kennedy Airport today, an individual later discovered to be a public school teacher was arrested trying to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a set square, and a calculator.

Attorney General John Ashcroft believes the man is a member of the notorious Al-Gebra movement. He is being charged with carrying weapons of math instruction.

Al-Gebra is deeply feared by the intellectual giants of the Bush administration. Al-Gebra desire average solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on a tangent in search of absolute value. They consist of quite shadowy figures, with names like "X" and "Y", and, although they are frequently referred to as "unknowns," we know they really belong to a common denominator and are part of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country. As the great Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say, there are three sides to every angle, and, if God wanted us to have better weapons of math instruction, He would have given us more fingers and toes!

Therefore, we're extremely grateful that our government has given us a sine that it is intent on protracting us from these mathdogs who are so willing to disintegrate us with calculus disregard! These statistic mathematicians love to inflict plane on every sphere of influence. Under the circumferences, it's time we differentiated their root, made our point, and drew the line!

These weapons of math instruction have the potential to decimal everything in their math on a scalene never before seen unless we become exponents of a Higher Power and begin to factor-in random facts of vertex. As our Great Leader would say, "Read My Ellipse. Though they continue to multiply, their days are numbered and the hypotenuse will tighten around their necks."
funny? hmm no idea. source: all over internet.

ytd we went take neoprints, me and yuling and eileen. nothing much to say, just that it's really tiring to take neoprints, and what's more, none of us have decorated neoprints b4! so it was a whole new experience in that sense. so in the end im the only one who didn't get to decorate, but nvm i didn't really want to either. i was just directing them T.T

it's really tiring bcos it's like b4 u know it you hear "3, 2, 1" then FLASH and the picture comes out with us looking surprised at totally wrong directions and half our faces cut off T.T super tiring lor, to coordinate just nice so that we all appear nicely in the photo. HAHA and the music was enya, so it's so "soothing and calm" which is totally ironic since we were all flustered and desperately finding out when it's going to flash. oh the climax was...

FLASH. onscreen it shows the last picture. it's a picture of our...LEGS!

the camera suddenly changed to the one at the BOTTOM! WE DIDN'T EVEN REALISE THERE'S ONE DOWN THERE AND IT'S LIKE eileen didn't get to translate what the jap words were saying and we didn't understand it and it just flashed. and we were all posing so nicely on top some more. we felt so stupid. T.T

uh there's the encounter with the weird woman on the bus who was really pissed with us. rgs girls in general perhaps. the stereotypes were really strongly present in her i could see. she even thought we couldn't speak chinese. and her tone was condescending and infuriating. she totally was looking down upon us or something. dun like rgs then dun like lor, no need to vent your displeasure at us right. and not like we were doing anything wrong. i didn't have the dare to ask her what was exactly wrong with us though T.T she was so pissed with us.

it's such a weird experience. but not that bad lah, she kindof perhaps felt repentent maybe she ran out of stuff to say and she started saying how we're the future of our generation and we should raise the singapore's flag higher next time and we will be sending astronauts up to space and space ships and stuff (must be influence from the malaysian astronaut recently).

i just felt amused at that, bcos it's kindof related to me. astro? u know astro? yah so i just couldn't help but smile and feel happier about the whole experience that was otherwise rather dreadful if you think about it. hmm...

ah well it was really a nice day anw. nothing like that can dampen my spirits. ^^

today nothing much happened, just the gathering at rjc with risc and rjelectronics. not too bad, managed to make some electronics stuff that didn't work no thanks to someone, but the frisbee was quite bad. not as bad as MPASTRO's dog and bone though haha...but still, i think there just wasn't the "bonding" needed in the frisbee game between rgscitaré and risc.

actually ultimate frisbee is quite fun when it's played 4 vs 4 or 5 vs 5. too many ppl just leaves ppl out, esp in such a small and limited space. i hope scitare exco'08 learn their lessons from these failures experiences.

on a sidenote, good luck and all the best to all of you taking RA selection test! just do your best, i believe u can do well! (:
