Math for thought.

To everyone who finds mathematics interesting, I ask you this- What drives you? I for myself have no understanding of the word interesting when applied to Mathematics. Why do mathematicians, at least the ones at our college, have to present us a bunch of equations in the most formidable manner possible and expect us to perform miracles with them. It is like playing with abstractness, you know nothing about why would you be possibly solving a problem, you just have to do it for the sake of a solution. That makes me take Math in the most casual sense possible, it is presented as if it is of no use. What do we get out of solving an Integral? Except a sense of deep satisfaction of making an ass out of ourselves. Seriously, that is what I think we do whenever we solve yet another senseless mathematical problem. Okay, Math is used everywhere and we can't possibly do anything without it- I get that point. But why does our college have to turn it into something so uninteresting, people lose their interest in a subject they are actually fond of. It is like presenting a beautiful doll to a tiger cub, it has no idea what it is supposed to do with the doll, it does not understand what beauty is- it just knows one thing, the solution to every problem is clawing the shit out of it.
