I admire that kind of thinking.

I don't really care about earthly things like grades, medals, or money.

That's what convinces me to ignore mine. And that eliminates the stress. Hut stress seems to he very common on NS. I wonder why....

Oh. I find the exact sciences easier than the humane profile (languages, art, etc.)
Which were the other finals you had? I think you said you had three.

Seems OK, unless it's advanced algebra and trig.

I've never used tofu in anything, so I am little nervous how my cooking will turn out. :lol:

Tofu goes well with anything. As long as you don't burn it, spill it, etc. which is obvious.

Tofu is a forgiving ingredient. What delicate dishes are you currently preparing, if I may ask?

Probably isn't, but to someone who's doings Maths, Further Maths, Biology, Chemistry and Physics for his A-levels, it does look odd.

Well, I am new here so I am probably going to make a fool of myself. I'm just going to give my opinion and disappear.
Education is vital and we all go to school. But where does Algebra and chemistry get you in life? I'm not too sure but I know that Humanities can really take you to amazing new places. I actually love Geography and even though I joined this place due to a certain someone and not my love for geography, I don't think I'm going to regret it.
I'm going off on a rabbit trail here. Anyway, my point is, we need to study Humanities to make the world a better place. That is all.

Hi! Welcome! You won't make a fool of yourself if you post about the right things. TET is for chatting, other threads have a specific purpose.
So, how are you?
