f(x)??


Math.
What does that even mean?
Math.
For me, math means difficult.
REALLY tough.
I have dyscalculia. It's a real disease. It means you're bad at math.
Which I am. 
My dad tells me that it does no good to tell myself I'm bad at it, and that it'll only bring me down, but, Dad, I'm here to tell you that hasn't proved true for me.
This expresses my view of Math 1050 PERFECTLY.
The last test I took in Math 1050, I studied EVERYDAY. 
Just ask my friends.
"Hey Amelia, can you hang out??"
"No, I'm studying/getting tutored for/crying because of math."
I have never walked away from a test feeling so confident. I KNEW I got a good score.
What'd i get? A bad score.
SUCKY.
hi mel.
I have a quiz tomorrow.
I would really like to get at least a C- so that I can never have to take the horrid class again, and still get accepted into the Elementary Ed program.
With my track record.........eh........
I don't understand why math can't come to me like english does....english and I get a long very well. We are BFFs. I got a 36 on the English section of the ACT as opposed to my math which was a 24....if I'd gotten a 25, I would've been able to klept out of Math 1050. Sooooooooo. That's cool.
Anyway, I just needed to get that out of my system.
I'll probably do another post tonight so that I can make up for this one.
But sometimes, it feels good to bash. 
Anybody? 
*crickets*
Nobody.


Well, I don't heart math, but I do heart my mom.
