everything is related to math

I love the feeling of looking at an equation and having it look completely foreign and scary to me, getting lost while solving it, trying different approaches, finding mistakes, setting them right , scratching my head, realizing I am making it too complicated and then simplifying.

The idea that everything is someway is related to math was introduced during the Pythagoreans of ancient Greece. Even literature has roots of math, Mesopotamian cuneiform, the earliest writing system was a byproduct of an earlier system of numerals. The most important thing about math is that it personifies the absolute truth, within math every theorem has absolute proof and can be proved right. The beauty of math is that its theories lies even in the simplest things. Whether I am calculating discount on shoes which are on sale, push a car in an inclined path, roll a dice of six three times in a row or witnessing the parabola shaped waves made on the surface of water when stone skipping with friends. Math successfully describes nature and everything that comes with it.

I wasn't always good in math, and back in the day I was unable to even grasp some of the easiest mathematical concepts. One of my biggest academic burden was solving simultaneous equation and till tenth grade I was intrigued by my peers who would solve these equation in a minute. However math never gave up on me and I ended Olevels with A in mathematics. At the start of alevels my school counselor told me not to take maths as it is much harder and you may not be able to handle the pressure. All year I got Ds and Cs in my monthly tests but ended the year with B in As level maths and hopefully I will upgrade this B into A next year.

For me, maths isn't just a study of; quantity, space, structure and change, but maths has been and will always be a hobby for me. I don't want something that I enjoy to end, but in case of math there is always a new chapter around the corner, and for me the next chapter is actuarial science.
