simplify

[flyhalf87]

does anyone agree with me that we complicate our own lives way too much? its like when there is a complicated question, we automatically look for a complicated answer without looking for the simple ones first. scientists say we only use 10% of our brains, and then schools look at that and say "see? you need to study more boring books so you can unlock the rest of your brain". lol. i hope you understand what i meant by that.

Do you hate math? Or do you hate how you do math?

he hates being forced to take math classes when they have nothing to do what-so-ever with whatever he happens to love

its an unnecessary complication.
if he wants to design planes or be an engineer or whatever, then yeah he should take those classes such as calculus because they have to do with what he wants to do.

but what if he wants to be a writer? or a business owner? why complicate his life with math beyond what he needs to know to accomplish his goals?

i dont know what he meant, but thats what i meant
