Double Edge Sword

Wow, finding a job is really not easy.

Thankfully, I don't have any of the financial obligations (yet) to settle for something that's not to my liking.

It can be a double-edge sword though, since it reduces my urgency to look for one.

...

...

...

Sometimes, I wonder if my side income have anything to do with this.

Through some hard work, I've made enough to pay for my monthly expenses, enough to buy a new system, and (very luckily) enough to even completely repay my study loan.

Most importantly, it's something I really enjoy doing.

And I know it'll be something that I'll enjoy doing for life - which is exactly why I don't want this to turn into a chore.




End of rant.

The Codes

This is an amusing "mathematical documentary series".

Yes. I am actually watching something related to maths.

That should prove how interesting this is.

Seriously, I think schools should show such documentary to ALL the secondary school kids. I never knew/care what 'Pi' was. I never questioned why bubbles are spherical. I never knew so much could be explained by mathematics - Not only our behavior, but also the nature, the world, and the universe.

I wished there were these videos back then - It would definitely have foster a little more interest in Mathematics inside of me.

Below are some short clips from the documentary:
