Chapter Twenty: Giant Platonic Solids (~jinghan)
Since my boyfriend was giving a talk on geometry I jumped on the opportunity to make some giant platonic solids out of skewers and hot glue (something I had done in a class in America). Here is a photo of the icosahedron (20 triangular faces), but there is also the tetrahedron (4 triangular faces), cube (6 squares… […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2012/09/01/chapter-twenty-giant-platonic-solids-jinghan

Chapter Nineteen: The Lost Wallet Strikes Again (~jinghan)
Note from the Author: Ron was saying that he was talking to another blogger who was saying they were discouraged/guilted-away from blogging when the by my proliferate blogging. Haha, please blog anyway! Don’t even appologise for not blogging, just jump right in like it’s quite natural to throw a blog out there after not blogging […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2012/08/27/chapter-nineteen-the-lost-wallet-strikes-again-jinghan

Chapter Eighteen: MAST30022 Decision Making (~jinghan)
I get my MAST30022 Decisions Making assignment back (surprisingly within the week: this lecturer is on the ball!): full marks! It was a very short simple one that doesn’t count for too many marks but still a good sign! Except… I find it highly ironic that I am doing well in a subject call Decision Making when […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2012/08/26/chapter-eighteen-mast30022-decision-making-jinghan

Chapter Sixteen: Ode To Melancholy (~jinghan)
This semester I’m doing a placement with the In2Science program, mentoring in a primary school maths class for a couple of days a week. It’s my second placement and the students are doing some work on ratios – which, I soon found out, are hard to explain in a clear concise manner off the top […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2012/08/14/chapter-sixteen-ode-to-melancholy-jinghan

Chapter Fifteen: Bring a camera… or a phone (~jinghan)
What do Jinghan’s dread? Jinghan’s dread 3:15-5:15 statistics tutorials with a computer lab component. Uh huh. Brings back bad memories of probability tutorials where I would franticly try and keep up with what other people were doing, by which I mean I would spend the whole class going “huh? What does that mean? What’s this […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2012/08/09/chapter-fifteen-bring-a-camera-or-a-phone-jinghan

Chapter Fourteen: Beyond Uni… What to do with one’s life… (~jinghan)
Note from the Author: First, you’ll be glad to know that this will actually be a somewhat relatively emotionally sober post… Second, you’ll be disappointed to know that this post probably has more questions than answers, despite what the title suggests… “I’ve done something really stupid, Jinghan!” “What happened?” “I miss the first round of law […] -
Chapter Thirteen: The Bigger World (~jinghan)
At the moment I have been thinking quite a lot about what I’ll be doing after I graduate. My plan is to eventually teach, but people are also encouraging me to do a Masters in maths. But now and again my hunger for more learning is half-hearted at best, which leads me to think wonder […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2012/07/26/chapter-thirteen-the-bigger-world-jinghan

Chapter Twelve: Of Jealousy and Pride (~jinghan)
When you are at your prime; when you are the smart one, the cool one, the one in control, the brave, the strong and the winner — Jealousy is a strange concept that has no real meaning in your world. It is something other people feel. And you may ven remark to them that you […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2012/07/25/chapter-twelve-of-jealousy-and-pride-jinghan

Chapter Eleven: Finding Home (~jinghan)
I still have a lot of searching for myself to do, but for now I have this poem as a light in the dark. I hope it warms your heart too in whatever you feel lost in. — And so I have come home at last from my year of exchange in America. People have […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2012/07/14/chapter-eleven-finding-home-jinghan
