Wage problem I have One time I did one on one with a friend for math. I teach my friend math for like 5 hours. Her mom offered me fifty dollars, but I told her forty is enough. When I got home and told my mom, she got so mad. She said I should get much more. My prep school boss said I should get 20 per hour from one on one. My mom agreed with my boss. So I called my friend's mom and told her my mom wants 20 an hour. So the next day my friend's mom gave me 60 bucks to satisfy my mom's demand. My friend's mom said my mom charges too much for my level of math. Apparently she hires a PHD in math at only 22 bucks each hour. Right now I work in a prep school every Saturday for 4.5 hours each day. My boss pays me 8 dollars each hour. I teach math
Annoying arrogant kid There's a kid in my class who is so arrogant. In class when the teacher is moving onto a new topic, he somehow knows all about it. I asked him, "Did you learn this stuff before?" He said, "No." I asked him, "How you know it then?" He said, "I just know it." Is he implying he receives spontaneous knowledge? And he implies I'm stupid for not knowing stuff my teacher didn't teach. But how does he know this stuff if he never learned it before?
Need help understanding math concept So I need to fully understand definite integral. What exactly is dx? I hear people say it's a base of a infinitely small rectangle and integral is just adding up infinite infinitely small rectangles. I understand an infinitely small rectangle to have 0 area. If you add up infinite 0s, shouldn't you just get 0? I do know how to solve integrals methodically, but just don't really understand the notation of dx.
Math kids have it easy People who are good at math have such easy life. Physics is like another free grade to boost their average even more. Chemistry is another free grade to them too. It's like they get 3 free grades at the cost of 1. Meanwhile everyone struggle through each subject. Everyone else has triple the pain while them math kids are painless.
Why am I so unlucky My life is so unlucky. I live in poor family and capitalism isn't helping out my hardworking parents. I am ugly (as confirmed by many people). That means I won't be accepted among the popular people since popular people are attractive in some way. I am stupid (I don't understand stuff I learn in school) so that means I won't be accepted among the people with high grades. I am socially awkward (which may be caused by my ugliness/stupidity) so that reduces my happiness even further. Why am I so unlucky?

How important is studying? I am a guy who never studies. It is so boring. Playing games and stuff is much funner than studying. I was talking to friend from high school and he said I need to start studying. He said if I studied in high school I could have went to better college. He said that the reason I get low grades is that I don't study. From my view, low grades are balanced out by the fun I have during the time I could be studying. He said if I want to have a good paying job, I must study, no matter the field. I said maybe there's a field that pays good and I don't need to study to become good at that field. He wished me good luck finding such a field. So how important is studying? I also have crappy memory so that is something against
Life is like a movie? I feel like my life is like a movie. I'm just there, a spectator of stuff around me. I don't really tend to interact with stuff. Often times I would space out, then realize I'm still here. It's like a permanent lucid dream without superpowers. Do you ever feel like this? Or am I just weird?
Was I too rude? So a guy was talking about how much he loves science to a group of friends, and I happen to like science too. So I say, "I like science too!" The guy was like, "Yea science woohoo!" and cheering. So the guy started talking about food webs and food chains. I hate biology. I like physics and chemistry, but hell no biology. So I said, "Hey you like science a lot right?" The guy said, "Yep." I said, "Do you know how to derive the formula for gravitational force?" He remained silent. The group of friends talked among themselves. I asked him again, "Do you know how to derive the formula for gravitational force?" He said, "I hate physics. I love only biology." I

My view on New York City Here is what I think of about New York City: Land of subway Land of celebrities Land of crappy subway Land of diversity Land of stock market Land of hobos in subway Land of walking Land of rich people Land of people learning calculus in 10 grade Land of chain littering Land of chain smoking Is there anything I miss or anything wrong in my list?

This smoking generation So this is the generation of smoking and drugs and stuff. My school practically everyone is smoking or doing drugs. I'm never going to damage myself and right now I don't hang around those people (aka almost the whole school). This attitude causes me to be an outcast and socially awkward around most people in school. Should I just hang out with them and damage my health and environment or remain an outcast who will never use substance?
Any runners on Basil? So running is something I like to do. But I find it hard to have endurance and sprint. In my class of 34 I'm number 2 in sprinting and number 27 in endurance. It's so uneven.
What do you think of this dad? So a guy needed to learn something, which his dad was an expert. Be aware the family is rich as hell so his dad just does nothing throughout the day. So the dad tried to hire a private teacher to teach his son the subject. However the teacher refused continuously, and in the end the son ended up failing. Couldn't the dad taught the son with all the free time he has since he is loaded and doesn't work? What you think of this dad?
