The Mathematician in Me
- July 19th, 2010
The mathematician in me doesn’t understand why my mom would rather spend 400 to come to JOHOR BAHRU (i repeat, JOHOR FREAKING BAHRU) instead of 500 to Ho Chin Minh.
The mathematician in me doesn’t want to pay 500 for a return ticket to Miri in a plane with insufficient leg space.
The mathematician in me isn’t happy about throwing away pack of minced beef after I finally figure out a way to cook it.
The mathematician in me wants to get tricked by the four digits on my phone when the alarm rings in the morning.
The mathematician in me doesn’t like how a quarter tank of petrol can only bring me 45 km.
The mathematician in me doesn’t get why anyone needs a calculator to calculate 220/500.
The mathematician in me hates the ticking clock.
Then again, in a world of toxic megacolons and dissecting aortic aneurysms, the mathematician in me is nothing but a bill calculator.
Who cares about what the mathematician in me has to say?
