ok wait i haven't forgotten about this tumblr i promise. i just did some problems from chapter 13 and rewarded myself with buying some CSM fan merch lmao
i just. i might have not wanted to do math for a while, and i still don't really want to review of things that i remember well but am not good at
i thought about the things that i actually don't remember too well and thought about concepts that i actually wanted to master, rather than aimlessly going thru the book chapter by chapter
i skipped to chapter 13, was kind of in over my head, and then went back to chapter 10. i may not have all the basics mastered to the point of having been etched into my soul, but i know them well enough that i'm too happy to skip ahead
