freakonomics

yummy korean food last thursday and yummy chat with the girls (jacq and shumin) too...among the things we talked about was war. heh. i am a spicy food nut, i gotta have chilli as much as possible.

i saw a very funny show. some clip of hosann leong in parliament of singapore. i don't know why but skinny guys with funny arm actions and rap and hilarity just make me laugh. yeah u too tegence. ^^ i'll put the link up when i find it...

okay and the equations appearing in my textbook is starting to freak me out.

The reciprocal: if x is a variable then its reciprocal is 1/x. sure that seems simple. but i dont really know what is reciprocal...so i went to check it out.

Reciprocal: Also called multiplicative inverse. Mathematics. the ratio of unity to a given quantity or expression; that by which the given quantity or expression is multiplied to produce unity: The reciprocal of x is 1/x. okayyyy...i hope that all i need to know is that last sentence.

what on earth..for all the law i am reading, i do not understand this dictionary definition of this maths term. oh man oh man....add maths is back to haunt me in econometrics like the dreaded dy/dx..calculus was so like my weakest area....blarhgh.......
