Maths Olympiad, Part 3

I received my Certificate of Distinction a few days ago, so I'm pleased.

I also got an IMOK (Intermediate Maths Olympiad and Kangaroo) keyring and a little booklet with the papers and answers in it.

The keyring has a puzzle on the back which is really hard and I haven't solved yet. I say puzzle, it's just a maths question really.

Subway, Enfield

Subway: Heaven on Earth.

The Sub of the Day on Tuesdays is the Meatball Marinara, a favourite among several of my friends and me. The Sub of the Day offer means the selected sub costs only £1.99 (6") which is a whole 30p or so cheaper!

So Craig, Wai Cheun, George, Johnny and I decided to go to Subway in Enfield after school today and get a Meatball Marinara. Which we did. Delectable. Craig also got me and Johnny a refill of Diet Coke each, even though we weren't sure if it was permitted or not.

Then I got a few buses to get back to Potters Bar, got on a train to WGC, and arrived home at about 7 o'clock.

All in all, a pretty cool day.

It may become a monthly thing.
But it may not.

Maths Olympiad, Part 2

Mr Morley told me I received a Distinction in the Olympiad, so I was wrong in my previous Maths post, in which I mentioned I'd be happy with a bronze certificate. I was wrong as the Olympiad is clearly not done in that way, but from what I've been told, a Distinction is the equivalent of a Gold or so. Basically, I think it's the highest award you can get in the Olympiad.

I believe Sergei (Year 9) and I were the only ones to receive a Distinction.

I'm still waiting for confirmation on this news but it seems plausible.
