"My brain can see numbers floating all over the universe converging to infinity...Doing complex math is very satisfactory to my brain.
The math classes make me feel elated and give me lovely emotions like optimism and personal satisfaction.
Math gives all kids, times of immense satisfaction."

"Most of my life numbers would talk to me. The numbers are interposed in the world sort of like forces going on behind the scenes...Really, the entire world is numbers orchestrating power. Good power finds numbers and equations that prove themselves true.
When I met with Jen, losing the battle of creating these equations myself was lifted. Not only was that work with Jen the long awaited proof of my purpose, it showed others how brilliant I am.
Start to work with numbers to show the world how smart we are."

"I find some patterns in the things around us easily, I think. It’s not that I knew it already. I only just now learned it officially. It’s that the pattern was already there to see.
Math is easy because it’s simply there. It’s not new to learn like other subjects.
So excited (to learn math)!"
