Line 165: Line 245:  
My dad used to make me write tables(multiplication) [1-30] everyday from my 4th grade till my 10th grade. I always use to think that it is just a wastage of time and paper. But, now when I look back, I think it has made me much better than most of the people out there when playing around with numbers. The lesson that I learnt form here is that "no matter what your intelligence, it is practice that makes you better at a task and that hard work always pays off in some way or the other."
