1. What new ideas about mathematics did you learn?

Numerous ideas and puzzle came to my mind. I'm so amazed that everything around us
is having its role in our realm. I learned and proved that all around us has purpose and
patterns in our living. Everything around us has form with math numbers; even the
simplest things have numbers. Everything is connected, even as humans have their
patterns in our bodies. I'm thinking that creature of this whole system that we're living
in made it to remind us that he didn't make this just because he only wants it. He made
a plan; he organizes everything according to its niche. He wants us to see that all of his
creation isn't just a flit. Its more than a masterpiece. He made this to show us that
everything can relate to one's other movement, shape, and art. He made everything
with one thing that can call "patterns of nature". Beside, I noticed that everything is in
mathematics. The golden ratio is mind blowing. Imagine, it's everywhere. The flowers,
shells, paintings, human bodies, and animals have natural patterns and golden ratios.

2. What is it about mathematics that may have changed your thoughts about it?

My impressions and perception of mathematics and numbers change instantly. I

realized that mathematics isn't all about solving and finding an answer or having a long
solution even to comprise numbers only. It's part of our everyday existence; it's part of
our whole humankind. Also, I taught all this time that science is everything that it is
everywhere. That science is the most important and deserve to study more since
focusing on science could save and discover different things since my notion is vast
when it comes to science. Science is essential from the explanation, basis, findings,
conclusions, research which gave us a way to explain why many things are all under in
it, why things are happening. Before, I believe that everything has an explanation in
science since it's science. It deals with the study of knowledge, process, truth, and facts
through observation and experiment. But then, suddenly, my thoughts change. Science
without using mathematics is nothing and it's useless without doing even some basic
mathematics. Meaning for me, before we discover science, mathematics already exists
and shows its beauty and art and showing that it is already part of the universal world.
This realization blows me with this new topic, proven that we shouldn't only focus on
what we are seeing.

3. How useful is mathematics to the humankind?

Mathematics is constructive in our everyday living. From the moment we check the
time, we will buy groceries, the clothes we wear, the house where we live, the food we
consume, every time we create a plan, the rules we follow, there's math. There's a
number everywhere. So for me mathematics is beneficial and gives an remarkable
contribution to our world where we are standing. For me, without science with the
tremendous help of mathematics, our world maybe is still in a tumultuous disturbance,
where everyone is asking, How?, Why?, When?, Where and What? This realization
made me understand that everyone has their purpose. And mathematics is still and will
always be still helpful for us, no matter what. We couldn't deny that Mathematics is in

I’m looking forward to learn more about this, everything has an explanation, and everyone could be has
a connection.
