Alrighty, this isn't exactly a *bad* project -- it was very good. But it was a bit nerve-racking. I had to summarize the spiritual application of Balaam in about 5 minutes in front of 350 people. Phew, the podium had a big, clumsy (and shaking) oaf behind it who was rocketting through too many notes in too short of a time. My monotone voice didn't help either. I was SO nervous.

To be honest... I think I did enjoy maths at one time. Unfortunately I had bad class after bad class. In one, when I finished all the work assigned to me and started drawing or just otherwise stopped, I was assigned almost twice the original amount. In the other, I'd been doing slightly advanced mathematics without realising it for two years and found it incredibly mind-numbing before running into the class I mentioned before.

I just got reminded, after reading Ingemar's post, of a 2 page story my class had to turn in. I stayed up all night and somehow made a 10 page story (really horrible now that I looked at it). What was the real let down was our teacher just glanced over it, and gave us a little star saying we got credit. 10 pages and a whole night wasted...

I know the feeling to put in a lot of last-minute effort, and not have it appreciated.
