    And pay attention in math class. An understanding of Calculus gives you a Neo-like view of the Matrix that is the world. Trust me on this, because it'll be a while before you see it.

Math is love, math is life.

Seriously though... Math is so useful. It may be because I'm a programming major, but I really wish I remembered more from my highschool math classes. I've always been good at it, but I haven't used it in so long it takes me a while to get back the basics every time I go to do something even remotely complex.
