hundreds of pages of journals, 5 textbooks, incessant search for info on the Net... what do I do with all these........?! HOW!? i need a thesis..

The Best (Pure Math) Geek Song.

This is AMAZING. although even i can't understand all the jargons cuz i'm not "pure". (yeah i'm a convoluted mathematician-wannabe). for geeks only. haha

courtesy of mich. thks for spreading it ard~!



The lyrics for Finite Simple Group (of Order Two):

The path of love is never smooth
But mine’s continuous for you
You’re the upper bound in the chains of my heart
You’re my Axiom of Choice, you know it’s true

But lately our relation’s not so well-defined
And I just can’t function without you
I’ll prove my proposition and I’m sure you’ll find
We’re a finite simple group of order two

I’m losing my identity
I’m getting tensor every day
And without loss of generality
I will assume that you feel the same way

Since every time I see you, you just quotient out
The faithful image that I map into
But when we’re one-to-one you’ll see what I’m about
‘Cause we’re a finite simple group of order two

Our equivalence was stable,
A principal love bundle sitting deep inside
But then you drove a wedge between our two-forms
Now everything is so complexified

When we first met, we simply connected
My heart was open but too dense
Our system was already directed
To have a finite limit, in some sense

I’m living in the kernel of a rank-one map
From my domain, its image looks so blue,
‘Cause all I see are zeroes, it’s a cruel trap
But we’re a finite simple group of order two

I’m not the smoothest operator in my class,
But we’re a mirror pair, me and you,
So let’s apply forgetful functors to the past
And be a finite simple group, a finite simple group,
Let’s be a finite simple group of order two
(Oughter: "Why not three?")

I’ve proved my proposition now, as you can see,
So let’s both be associative and free
And by corollary, this shows you and I to be
Purely inseparable. Q. E. D.

August angst.

Thank God July is over. I wondered how I passed thru' it unscathed. or did i?

-----------------------------------

August is finally here. It signifies: -

my final year :(

the official start of my fyp (i'm still stuck in the primitive stage of research.. argh)

another 4 modules

another super big 4-mth long project

... (another dozen of stuff to do. i'm just too lazy to mention them)

i just feel plain lazy.

-----------------------------------

come to think of it, there're a couple of weddings coming up in the 2nd half of the year... for those of u who keep asking me when my turn is, cool it; let me get enuf $ and my bestman + team of 兄弟 in place first...haha
