I never realized before that the length of a regular hexagon's sides is the same as the radius of the circle that runs through all the vertices!
Aug 27, 2007 Welcome back teachers. Math teachers already busy with Problem Solving (L-R: Mr. D. Brooks, Ms. L. Kong, Mrs. A. Raynes and Mrs. N. Dolgetta).
Solving linear systems using multiple representations including tabular, graphical, symbolic, and sentence. For the purposes of this example the graphing calculator was used both for the graphical and tabular method as an essential tool.
This is my current life - the one filled with equations, matrices and proofs. If you asked me a while back, I would never ever in my wildest dream think that I would one day choose to walk down the path of learning, analyzing and proving dry theorems. As a kid growing up, I'm just like any other girl – love to daydream, observe, think, write and….hate Math :) I wasn’t born to be good with numbers, left alone being a Math person. In fact, it's quite the opposite. I was terrible at Math throughout grade, middle and high school. I could recall vividly countless times that I loathed Math lol. Even as I was working as Math and Science tutor in college, I often told everyone how much I suck at it. I don't mean to be modest. I don't think my thinking, creativity and experience with Math can be compared to these brilliant fellows I met at UCLA. But my life has had so many twists and turns and one thing leads to another, I ended up at UCLA Math Department.
Life has not been so easy on me these recently years ever since I started at UCLA. Things got rocky from the start and just got worse day after day. This mutual mismatched love and hate between me and UCLA is just ridiculous. I sometimes get this sense of pride to be accepted to one of the top10 renowned Math Departments in the world. And some other time, I whine and whine and whine about how much I regretted my decision… But the truth is despite my complaints, I know deep down I don't actually mean it.
Sure, my sudden poor academic performance made a lot of people doubt my ability to handle the course loads. I guess they didn’t really know what was going on so they come up with this excuse that I study something I hate to explain for my sudden drop in grade. Sometimes I’m just simply sick of people talking on my behalf without knowing what I have to say.
Yes, as I say before, I don't mean to hate Math. Sure, there are times that I hated it. But I’ve grown in these years of learning Math from all my brilliant friends to see it in a brand new light –broader, bigger, and “out the of box.” I enjoy each number, variable, notation, theorem, corollary and lemma in my own way. To me, theorems are no longer these series of words, equations and variables. Equations are no longer meaningless dry block of variables that you plug in numbers on to get another number. It’s all because I could imagine this graph behind a theorem or a practical purpose behind an equation. I love how the ideas for proof flow together as nice stream of thoughts and logics. But of course, I often hate and get frustrated with any unsolved problem. I have this bad habit of getting too attached and overly obsessed with an unsolved problem. It’s like an addiction, you know. You try to “get clean,” move on to the next problem but at the same time your mind is drawn back to figure out a way to conquer that “block” in front of you.
I don’t dare to say that my upper division Math classes are way more advanced but sure enough, it’s a bit more challenging than normal lower division Math. More words, more theories. Less numbers, less applications. Yes, it's dry, super dry to sit down and read through pages and pages of proof while trying to picture in your head what it is. Yes, it's frustrating not knowing or understanding the problem you have at hand. And yet, none of those hardships can compare to the feeling of joy and satisfaction whenever you solve a problem. It's rewarding beyond words.
I often smile when my friends told me "Calculus is hard" or "Probability is hard." A lot of time, I see many people struggle with Math because they try to take a shortcut. You will never know how to solve a problem if you skim through definitions, properties and theorems. Math is like a “seed” within you. Not everyone has it but everyone has the potential to master it. You just have to mold it, shape it until it becomes natural to you.
I'm no expert. I'm no better at Math than you. I’m just a girl who has this secretive blissful love with Math, who loves to whine whenever I got stuck, who smiles softly looking back at the path that led me to Math and who will continue to treasure and grow patiently with each and every moments Math has to offer me.
