Beauty of Mathematics

Dislike numbers? Sick of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fraction, calculation….. Straight to the point, hate Mathematics??

Think again.

There is something in Mathematics you should know.

They are not just merely numbers.

Watch this.

It may blow up your mind.

Or, change your perception of Mathematics.


>>1 x 8 + 1 = 9
>>12 x 8 + 2 = 98
>>123 x 8 + 3 = 987
> > 1234 x 8 + 4 = 9876
> > 12345 x 8 + 5 = 98765
> > 123456 x 8 + 6 = 987654
> > 1234567 x 8 + 7 = 9876543
> > 12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432
> > 123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321

> > 1 x 9 + 2 = 11
> > 12 x 9 + 3 = 111
> > 123 x 9 + 4 = 1111
> > 1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111
> > 12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111
> > 123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111
> > 1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111
> > 12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111
> > 123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111

> > 1 x 9 + 2 = 11
> > 12 x 9 + 3 = 111
> > 123 x 9 + 4 = 1111
> > 1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111
> > 12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111
> > 123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111
> > 1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111
> > 12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111
> > 123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111

Brilliant, isn’t it?

Now, take a look at this symmetry.

> > 1 x 1 = 1
> > 11 x 11 = 121
> > 111 x 111 = 12321
> > 1111 x 1111 = 1234321
> > 11111 x 11111 = 123454321
> > 111111 x 111111 = 12345654321
> > 1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321
> > 11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321
> > 111111111 x 111111111=12345678987654321


Take a look at this.

>>101%

>>From a strictly Mathematics view point:

>>What equals to 100%?
>>What does it mean to give more than 100%?
>>Even wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?

>>We all have been in situation where someone wants you to give more than 100%

>>How about achieving 101%
>>What equals to 100% in life?


>>Here’s a little Mathematical formula that might help answering these questions:

>>If:
>> A B C D E F G H I J
>>K L M N O P Q R S T
>>U V W X Y Z

>>is represented by

>>1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
>>11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
>> 21 22 23 24 25 26




>>If
>>H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K

>>8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

>>If
>>K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E

>>11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

BUT

>>A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E

> > 1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%


Then,
Look how far the Love of God will take you:

>>L-O-V-E-O-F-G-O-D

>>12+15+22+5+15+6+7+15+4 = 101%


>>Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that:
>>While Hard Work and Knowledge>>will get you close, and
>>Attitude>>will get you there,
>>It's the Love of God that will>>put you over the top!


See?

There are still lots about Mathematics yet to be discovered.

It is up to us explore so that we can learn to LOVE Mathematics instead of hating it.

Perhaps you have received email from your friend about the same thing as I have shown you but I wonder if you take time to look at it or just simply forward around.

I don’t know.

Anyway, I would like to thank Madam Tay Siew Kheng, my Additional Mathematics teacher for emailing this to me.

Everything On A Rise

Now, everything is on the rise. Car petrol, groceries, transport fee…..

Somehow all these stuff are directly proportional to one another. If one ups, others follow correspondingly. As citizens, all we can do is only to sigh.

I am not expert enough to criticize but I wonder why the government needs to raise the prices of everything? Can anyone make a clear explanation to me? Almost everything in my mama’s kitchen now costs double than it used to be. What a gigantic shock. A typical rice that we used to buy last time WAS RM27 but now has become RM47!!! How rational is that?

ONE THING, how about the salary?? When they are going to double or triple them to stabilize with the increment of others?? We need to reach a dynamic equilibrium here. Come on!!

Don't let EMOTION get on your way!

Haha! I don’t expect that my blog receive good response from my readers. First is from my friend and then my teacher. Is my blog really that good? Haha! It’s up to you to judge.

Interestingly, besides from the compliment, my teacher also has commented that I am being too emotional. I guess I exposed too much of my real self by letting out all my feeling in the blog. I am just being true to myself here, actually. (Am I or am I not??) After thinking for a while, I really think that my emotion really has blinded my perception towards my surrounding. It is just hard for me to let go sometimes. I tend to think of the dark side and worse case scenario of everything. It’s just typically me to think that way. Yes, I do realize that is not good and because of that, I need to change myself to be more optimistic, may be little or might be more. At least by that way, I will not that sad or depressed anymore.

BUT ONE THING, isn’t crying a good thing? Let all the sadness that hidden beneath my heart free rather than keeping everything inside. It is not that I cry all the time. I mean it has been a long time I don’t cry. (The one get spanked by my mom is not considered here. That serves me right! Haha….) Well, at least, I have found a good reason for me to cry that night.

By the way, it has been one week semester break has started and I am going to be home soon. I already really to let it go and start to accept whatever that happens. I myself merely cannot control it. I cannot manipulate destiny. It is up to me how to deal with it.


:Don’t always question why.

:Just keep holding on and will never be wrong.

:There is always pain in life but joy is there too.

:So, CHEER UP!!

:Let love leads the way…
