Today in math class the windows were open just a crack and (in the middle of Taylor Series) this wonderful earthy-green swell wafted in the window. I stopped paying attention completely and was left with my heart pounding at the merest notion of spring on the way.

It's amazing how something as simple as a change in temperature can carry all that emotional significance. Humans are the shit, there's no denying it.

no, I disagree. I just think that Taylor polynomials are totally NOT the shit.

^But how -else- could we have found the value of e? Huh? E^x is crucial because...um...it is. You know....math and stuff.

oh my god, e^x(or t, or y, or whatever variable you happen to be using) is god, and sure it's cool to be able to prove it, but those polynomials still suck.

Perhaps it's just that ib project I had to do on them last year after I got back from headh of the hooch tired from the 3 day regatta and an 8 hour drive at 8:00 and had to do the whole thing and I stayed up really late...but then again maybe that's not it.

^No, it can't be you. It's definitely math's fault.

yeah, i love spring, i love being outdoors and being able to bask in the sun. I also love the bite of the cold when i step outside though, and the crispness of the air in winter. Life is beautiful

I read that as "Humans are shit" and I was like "Logical conclusion... how?"

but now I get it.

and I don't like e^x. I still use log base 10.

Oh the foolish errors of us Calc AB/BC kids.
