Yeah, things have been good (minus mocks and stuff), how is everything with you ? Well its all a bit complicated really, biological sciences but I will probably switch to another course when I get to uni cause why not
Switching courses when you get there? Maximum y0l0 there m8
Yeah, it's mock week this week, and I didn't do too much work over Christmas
Please could you describe it? I'm really interested in knowing what it's like to hear 'colours' etc.
my synaesthesia is more 'feeling' colour when hearing or seeing a particular word or number. Some words and numbers also have genders and have personalities. for instance, I hate the word thursday because to me it looks like a really bitchy stuck up girl, the sort that would be a bully. i dislike the number 7 because I sense a feeling of untrustworthiness around it. All days of the week and months of the year have colours as do most numbers. I've done this since I can remember and so I was confused when I first found out that not everyone does it.

Do you feel this bias towards and against certain words also affects decisions you make in life? E.g. not moving into a house with a number ending in 7 etc.
the original eqn: x2+x+1=0 is iriducible which means it is unfactorizable and so has no real solutions, that means you need to think complex! its quadratic with conjugate, i.e. two distinct roots and thats it. you can flower it up as much as you want but you can't escape that fact. It was your substitution that screwed it up; you can't sub. part you have to sub. for all!

Electric circuits is the worst physics topic there is
Definitely agree with this! There's just nothing interesting about it, it's just stupid basic formulae that like to change all the time- at A level, anyway

Kirchoff's laws, bleugh I doubt I will EVER need electrical circuit knowledge in my life...
It's so boring I hate that electronics is basically compulsory in every first year of a phys degree waste of my time
It's god awful, and I'm glad I'm dodging that bullet by doing Chem Eng However, I have heard at university level a lot of complex numbers get involved, so that should make it a bit more enjoyable...
It's mock week but we're doing some more quantum physics and electromagnetic waves afterwards. I just hate circuits so much, all these laws etc.

Out of curiosity, why doesn't mechanics make sense then?
It's the fact that I have to visually imagibe what is going on to understand something, I always look like the dumb one in an exam pulling all kinds of gestures..
The only good things about mechanics are gravitation and quantum mechanics. At least in my advanced higher course anyway.

What, but don't you find it fascinating that you are learning the rules that govern the device you are using right now? I mean, sure in and of itself it's quite mundane but when you think of the wider picture it's much more fascinating.
I don't know, maybe because i'm a bit of a geek but I just love learning the inner workings of a device - everything else is an abstraction layer.

I don't really care about the resistance of the circuits in my phone or whatever. I'm more interested in what parts such as processors actually do. The thing I hate most is probably resistance, so yeah, I'll probably find anything that doesn't have to do with that relatively interesting

Yh complex numbers are used in data compression which is cool af tbh
