to get back on the math class topic, personally, I love math. always have. But to me anything beyond geometry shouldn't be required. (it goes, alg, geo, alg2, precalc, then calc. trig IS alg 2 now) Some people minds just arn't designed for math, their just good at other things. 4x^2+5x+7=4 people should learn to solve, but finding the focus of a hyperbole is pointless. now physics, however, is another story. basic physics should be required imo in place of alg 2. well over half the people that were in my algebra II class had no idea what they were doing anyway, they would memorize the formula's they needed and various rules and just do that. Not many people had a true understanding of the topics.

Is it possible to exaggerate the focus of a hyperbole?

LOL!

i believe that math is taught in school as a way to learn critical thinking and see "outside the box". Also, advanced math helps stimulate your brain, and the brain is like a muscle, if you use it, it gets "stronger", ergo, your thinking abilities will be better (become smarter).
And in my case (mechanical engineering student), I need math... And love it for that matter... (I know im weird)

I think Kevin here has one of the better answers about the Math and why it is what it is

After school I sell meat at the local grocery store for ten bucks an hour.

While my job description is to help customers and sell product, my main job is to pretend I'm busy. Most of my day is spent in La-la land.

There are different kinds ..... cheap stuff usually has more of the dirt-rice taste.  Also, hot saki is usually lower quality than cold saki.  No, you don't mix it with anything.

Just get ready for a nice hangover if you drink too much of it.  When I was in Bankok (I was 17), me and one of my friends had a sake chugging contest.  I guess I could say we both lost.
I don't think I have drank it since.  Although I don't mind it.  From what I remember, it just tasted like stout wine.  I've had it cold, hot, and room temperature.  Hot is definitely not my favorite.
