Today, Vi Hart taught me the importance of mathematics. Not only can it allow you to entertain yourself endlessly with numerical patterns, but it actually shows that maths is actually rather awesome once you get past the fact that you have to learn it. Most people seem to find maths boring because this mindset has been hardwired in our brains ever since we step foot into school. Trust me, when you are five years old, your views are swayed very easily.
Which is why I got put by the time out cupboard so often in my first year of school. My dad very kindly told my teacher to keep an extra eye on me, I don't know why - maybe to make sure that I was extra good. And thus, I was practically living by this said cupboard for the entirety of year one. I did learn not to talk while the teacher was talking after that, I think.
There is a line, this represents the point of time in which I will stop procrastinating. I am a hyperbola.
