The First Week of Grade 12

Translated by DeepSeek V4 Pro. Translations can be inaccurate, please refer to the original post for important stuff.

Starting from August 1st, our Grade 12 (Senior 3) has officially begun. From now on, I will only be able to meet with readers for a short period from Sunday noon to afternoon ^_^

Life in Grade 12 is indeed very dull and tedious. In particular, the teacher’s phrase, repeated countless times—“This knowledge point is tested in the Gaokao like this...”—makes me feel quite annoyed. Is learning solely for the Gaokao? Even if this is a reality that is difficult to change, I refuse to simply comply. While the Gaokao must be prepared for, “life” must also be “lived.” We should live for the sake of life, not merely survive for the sake of survival.

Although I am very busy, I will still carve out some time to research things I am interested in, such as geometry, inequalities, polynomials, symmetry, and so on, as well as to simply daze off ^_^. Of course, I will also try to find some time to write about my learning insights here—though the frequency will likely be very low.

I believe that a year from now, I will not regret it.
