Middle of the week

Another tiresome morning... It was Cabin 3's duty to make breakfast. (Aliya, Alex, Elizabeth, and I)

MORE ON IN LIFE 

Anyways! Since I'm way too lazy to put this in sections like I usually do, I'll just put it in a big paragraph. The first thing we learned about was Maria Agnesi. She was a child prodigy, having known 5 languages (French, Spanish, Greek, Hebrew, and Latin) and being excellent in math, science, and philosophy. At age thirteen, she was able to teach other, including men, in Latin and Greek. The next thing we learned about was Fibonacci. There was this guy named Leonardo Pisano, born in Pisa, Italy. Stuff happened and his new surname became Fibonacci. The other things we learned about was about factorials, permutations, and combinations. It was fun relearning about it, even though I was confused about some of the ways we were doing it because we never used those methods that much. 

FUN FACT: Did you know that combination lockers should be called permutation lockers???

Back to the writing now... Around snack or lunch time, we played Mastermind. It reminded me of a game that I play on Club Penguin for EPF (Elite Penguin Force) training courses. Other than that, we did another Math Olympiad. This time, we did it by ourselves. Then later after lunch, we looked at TED clips of Space Time and The Math in Movies.
