Second diary in the US, Learning

Ph.D life.
I am not sure what it is going to be like and what stuff awaits me.

But It is best time to learn new things or develop concepts I have learned at my undergrad course.

I haven't played with maths in awhile, mostly focusing on catching up concepts, so I am now brushing up on my rusty math skills. What's so interesting is when I first encounter a bunch of complicated equations they come across as intimidating. I just want to run away or find shortcuts, like I did in my undergrad, for finding solutions.

It rarely helps but I had done that way.  The level of problems has been just basic or the problems merely required excellent mnemonic techniques with a tiny bit of understanding. So what's left on me is.. NOTHING.

I don't want to repeat the same mistakes, and I am getting paid for studying. All the world-level brilliant faculty members and excellent peers, environments, state-of-the-art equipments will support me as long as I am determined.

Take every class seriously and learn/study until I can fully understand. when I reach the point that I can explain concepts to other people, it boosts my ego and makes me happy. Go for it!
