阿婆the GM - paper vulture ;

i was just wondering about how terrible my life studying math is
and (just a subset) why do we have to study imaginary numbers when they don't exist

and i went to google-my-best-friend it.
and wiki-my-next-best-friend it.

why imaginary numbers really do exist

wow they do.

and reading made me realise what made me choose math as a major in the first place.
well no, i'm not changing my decision again.
because the shittiest thing is that, i'm not studying stuff like that!

i'm differentiating and integrating, finding spans and dimensions,
diagonalizing matrices and proving why |x||y|=|xy|.
my favourite topic out of everything is probably number theory.
which is at least remotely close to what i'm interested in.

im not studying the interesting stuff that i want to
at least not yet,
but i can't wait that long to fall in love with math again.
