My week has been tiring, but I am happy to see that I am getting more done.

And I managed to pass the monitoring process for an event of my course (ﾉ'ヮ`)ﾉ*:

Even though it's Sunday I still need to study some texts, so wish me luck (*꒦ິ꒳꒦ີ).

Coffee and admiring the campus scenery are a constant part of my routine.

School’s about to start in two days, does anyone have any tips for taking notes?

What it means to be a passerby in life.

I suppose, is a vague attempt at figuring out what I want to be in another person's life, I guess. The passerby here leaves an impression on the psyche of every person he interacts with, or at least he tries to in his own way. He doesn't want to be an integral part of a person's life but a vague, misty memory. Whenever the person thinks of the period of time when the passerby existed in the same light cone, he remembers the vague passerby and wonders how weird that particular passerby was with his weird principles and philosophies, the god complex, the quirks, the manipulations. I don't really know if that's what I actually want to be or if it is my own mind's creation to fill the void of not being around people among whom I would want to be the main character. Is it possible to find a main character like that, or am I exaggerating all of it? Either way, I find some kind of joy in being the passerby, maybe possibly more joy than being the main character.

my opinion on quantum physics is that we should stop looking into it. it's none of our business and frankly the particles seem to agree

Mathematics is beautiful and amazing and a worthwhile activity even disregarding the applications in science/engineering, and it’s sad that so many people hate it. It’s not your enemy, they just didn’t teach it well enough/correctly at school.

Wouldn't mind having one.

I'm going to study Quant now.

I'm getting very stressed these days because my high school finals results will be declared soon. I know I didn't do well, so I just hope I pass and achieve the required percentage to get into universities. My first entrance exam didn't go well either. I plan to post everything I do — for example, if I finish one or two topics, I'll post about it. Maybe this will satisfy my brain and give it enough dopamine so that I don't procrastinate. Tommorow, I plan to complete Set Theory, Statistics, Sequences and Series, Permutations and Combinations, and maybe Linear Equations as well if I have some time left.

you don't want to look back and wish you had worked a little harder.
