Building Blocks

After moving to Bangalore over five months ago and basically just sitting around on my ass taking up space, I decided to change the game plan a little and give up on trying to get a job altogether. Yea I know, now I sound like a complete bum right? But wait, I have decided that the time has come to take a substantial step towards my future. Make things happen! Solidify my dreams of becoming a rising star! A force to be reckoned with!!... And wouldn't you know it, it all starts with a Math paper.
Ugh, the dreaded math, with ratio and proportion; distance, time and speed, percentages, profit and loss, probability, exponents, fractions, volume, pythagoras theorem, graphs, geometry, logarithm,
trigonometry, algebra, linear equations, quadratic equations....oh my god!!! When does it end????!!!

In order to embark on my dream of doing journalism, I first have to traverse the treacherous path of numbers, formula, and the nerve racking 'x' and 'y'... No two alphabets have inspired as much outright panic in me as these...Now I am seeking guidance from my sister who is in my opinion, a mathematical genius, in order overcome the limitations of my mind, and possible plain stupidity in this department.
If I manage to find my nirvana, in the form a passing score, I will then actually be truly on my way to making things happen for me. While it may not come with a visa attached to it, it's still a damn good step in the right direction. So here's to me! May the coming days be filled with sweat, blood (probably) and tears, with the hope of big riches to come.
