1 more week!

Are you still in vacation mode? Playing games in front of your computer, Facebook, Twitter and other social media sites? Well, its the last week of getting tired of playing computer games, social media sites and many more and I think its time to shape up and start adjusting your sleep.

Summer is already over and more people will have to go to school.. New friends, new classmates, new teachers, and many more. This is a new journey in a students life.! (i hope that it really is a new journey in a student's life). Well, within less than a week, many students will come to school. Every member of a school community is preparing for these scenario every year. It somehow like a WELCOME party for the students going back to school.

Since it's a new beginning of the school year, may students are thinking of the different subject that they will encounter. We all know that one concern of most students is the subject MATH. A lot of students perceives mathematics as the HARDEST subject but really its not. Mathematics is a subject that helps a person build his or her self confidence. Not only that, many people thinks that studying mathematics particularly the very famous "x" and "y" in algebra are nonsense and will have no use in the future. Yes we can say that as a student, they cannot easy get the idea of studying the "x" and "y" in algebra or maybe even the different problems in math. Many would say that "ask me anything, except Math", "MATH stands for MENTAL ABUSE TO HUMANS", "let the Math Problem stays as a problem", and many more negative insights about math.

Thinking deeper why we have to study mathematics is that it really helps a person to boost and develop their analytic and and critical thinking skills. If you ask as student what he/she is going to do if he/she experience a flat tire while driving, he will just answer "im going to call and ask for help", without thinking what happened to his tire or what, how can he fix it bu himself and many more. A person who has a developed and practiced skills and with patience will certainly ask those questions first before calling help. If a person really understood the importance of learning mathematics, a problem will not be a problem for him, but it will be the problem's problem. All problems has its own solutions and the solution to a problem is to learn how to analyze, observe, criticize and execute and the most important of all, having patience in solving any types of problem. And all of those traits are developed by MATHEMATICS.
