Fractals

So I'm no fan of math - never was. Sure, it's super applicable, and surrounds us everywhere we go, but c'mon - those tests are brutal!

...Well... at least that's what I used to think. Now I'm not sure... I'm much more interested. To me, it was a given that math can be applied to everyday life. People have told me this several times, and I believed it so blindly (for I had seen the easy connections) that I personally had forgotten about it until now. But thanks to a video I watched in math class, I rediscovered the reason why people still study math in school and make a living from it.

I now understand how people could go crazy with math - and love it!

...Totally opened my eyes.
