I am still confused about it. But then, I'm confused about most things mathematical.

Haha, somehow I managed to get like… a twenty out of thirty-six on a math test for high school seniors. xDD Wonder how many I guessed and how many I actually got right.

THATS THE SAME SITE I FOUND!
But I still don't understand a word of it.
I usually get 70% for maths tests. For the end of year one, I got 80%! *shocked face* I guessed most of them...

We learnt probability last year. But we had a kind teacher who was very clear. My new teacher doesn't want us to just get the answers - she wants to see our working out. I can usually get the answer, but her method is wierd. AND WE HAVE TO USE HER METHOD. She just copied and pasted it from Maths Goodies, but complicated it. THANK GOODNESS FOR THE INTERNET. *hugs internet*

._. I just realised in my journal that I've never described what our house is like. Probably haven't even mentioned a few rooms. XD
