math and typing

Well, I did quite a lot of math yesterday and today, umm apparently my dad said that now from what I learned I can solve a few international olympic problems which is pretty cool if you ask me. I checked a few out and they honestly weren't as hard as I thought they would be. I have my AoPS class tomorrow on number theory so I'm guessing it won't be too hard now that I've basically covered just about everything they are gonna teach us.

 Also, today I've kinda been grinding Nitrotype which is this website where basically you need to type fast and accurately to win a race, and you can own lots of cars that require money to acquire, but if you win you can get money so yea.

 My all-time record on nitrotype is 98 words per minute, but I've never surpassed it after I reached it. I mean come on, it's soooo close to 100, the final stretch. Oh well, maybe by the time school starts I will have reached 100 words per minute.

 One of the people I know from ninja said that she also played nitrotype and we raced each other and wow, I got completely destroyed. She typed 119 words per minute on our first race and 109 on the second, and I did only 70s and 80s. Oof. maybe I'll challenge her again when I pass the 100-word mark.
