maths & stats.. err & tesl?

after 5 years of ignorance toward anything related to complicated mathematic, including the full of formulas in statistics
i was 'forced' to learn it again last monday
and the worse came yesterday, on 2 hours seminar of assessment course (one of the core courses in my degree)
oh my... now i really, truly, indeed very grateful of not pursuing my study in any field related to numbers
Allah knows best, always :)

just looking at the score of students' result,
detail inspection of each question in the test,
then looked into the statistics sheet
i started to feel the uneasiness and the gelabah feeling as i were to sit for additional maths paper in SPM (nightmare yo!)
hahahaha feel like 'why am i doing this?????' *faint*
the torture finally arrived when we were to do the thorough analysis of each column
and i was so 'tempted' to say those very 'cool' terms like
Standard Deviation, p-value, total correlation, standard error of measurement, Crombach's Alpha etc
wow! how cool was that!!
at first, yes, it was a torture to look at numbers
and the thought of doing statistics again was soooooo demotivated!

but later, hey!
it was so much fun and pride to finally figure out the correct answers!!!! yeaayyyy!!!!
no, we were not to do the calculation
we were to carry out a thorough analysis on the scores
and figured out whats wrong with each item in the test based on the cool terms mentioned
but you know, its seem very complicated for me!
first, maybe i'm not a fan of mathematics, let alone statistics
and second, i guess because i'm not familiar with the mathematical terms in english
i were taught in malay in my secondary school
and i thought to myself
here come the importance of PPSMI cherie!
u can be totally out of focus and lost when those important terms are alien to u!
i bet, those who got the chance to be taught in english for science and mathematics were so lucky!
they know more than us!!!
haih, but it has been reverted to malay kan?
what a waste...

but it was (is) truly fun to get to do that correctly (the statistics thingy)
and when i think about it
i can smile broadly to myself (even now i am smiling!)

and to those who are studying anything related to numbers
your ability and patience are impressive darlings
u all have my respects! *salute*

p/s : but compare to maths, physics is tougher for me! it has numbers, facts, formulas, pictures and sooo much more. urgh! oh btw, i scored quite well in my add maths in SPM hahahaha <--- show off! caitttt.
