    Hey, could be worse. You could have no comprehension of Limits.

    Is this something I should be worrying about?

    Come to some Analysis lectures. Limits all OVER the place. They're actually pretty handy.

    We've been doing Limits for the last two weeks in Calculus. Problem is, the lecturer seems to expect us to understand how to use them just by him writing down the definitions. No examples, no worked through questions.. It's certainly due to laziness on my part too, I'm not trying to avoid blame. I'm just saying that his method of teaching and my method of learning aren't really compatible, and while I'm conscious of the fact that it's me that has to change, I really can't be bothered right now.

    I've bought a book already, but it's down in Cork.
    Also, these not-going-to-the-first-few-lectures mornings really need to stop.

    The old one did too, only you had two separate apps, one for hosted, one for gmail.

    Rarely use it anyway. Just use the built in email client in the phone.

    Hello blinkey.

    I'm guessing you didn't like my comment so you decided to view my recent posts and try to slag me with one of them.

    In which case, you failed.

    I've just come up with an exciting new equation.

    TouchscrEeen + Windows XP's Rotate Display Function + Lying on side in bed = GOOD.

    I wonder does OS X have the same function.

    What a day...

    I still haven't been to bed. Watching history in the making is an amazing feeling. Amazing...

    I'm sure there are lots of vomit inducing things I could write. There are lots of ludicrous moments that I can recollect from the whole thing. But I think watching my American friend in tears is the thing that truely sums it all up for me. I think I finally believe in the chance to change, even if it took me a while

    And the GMB was great craic. Being a Histee was bound to pay off eventually.

    I totally missed this earlier but this was 5,000th post in this thread. And what an apt wohoo it is!:)
