Dislike it - Difficult; Like it - Easy

by: Kirsten Kane Rosa

Math and Physics are two of the major subjects in fourth year high school and almost all of the students find these subjects so difficult. Numbers, figures, and formulas made them confused and bored and sometimes one of the reasons they failed in their final grades.

Are these subjects really hard or easy? Well... I had interviewed students about this and when I ask them, they pondered deeply and answered me: "Difficult!". Some said that these two subjects made them "crazy" because of those confusing numbers and formulas. Others replied in contrast that Math and Physics are just easy because these are very much applicable in their daily lives. For them, formulas and their procedures are easy to memorize than those definitions and meanings in other subjects.

Math and Physics are interesting and challenging subjects. We just have to put an interest and shouldn't think of any negative feeling that those are difficult and hard to understand, instead think positive and learn to love and like them because if you do, you'll surely listen during class discussions attentively, exert more effort and be motivated solving problems and manipulating numbers.

If you hate or dislike the said subjects, you'll surely encounter difficulty on them, because your mind isn't yet ready to absorb lessons for you will feel sleepy during discussions.

Subjects are naturally given to us students, and they should be taken seriously. We must put this in our mind that our grades in every subject are our passport for graduation and for the future.

To batch 2009-2010, I hope that no one would say "I shall return".
