I thought math was fun but I only thought it was fun enough to see that
something worked. Once I saw that, I had to apply it to something difficult
for it to be fun again. I would only do the last problem from any math
homework assignment until I hit Calculus. Talk about ticking off high
school math teachers. I got As on my high school math tests and still
managed to make Ds in the class. I figured that if I made As on the tests I
should make an A in the class.
