When we get to a certain level in our education, we are introduced to the subject of trigonometry. I have just spent the last four hours on just a chapter of trigonometry in my Math book. Four hours! Now my brain is mentally drained, I'm grumpy, and weirdly enough, I also feel exhausted. I am so in need of some fun.
I'm sure trigonometry has many practical uses for those who have a head for the long, tedious calculations it involves - but not for me. I am more on the artsy, creative side - my brain was not wired for the convoluted properties of this branch of mathematics. I really don't understand how mathematicians and scientists can keep their head on straight to keep all the numbers and terms apart.
