That’s business as usual…
Sometimes, you have very intense work relationship with people…I remember I have worked with people with whom the project result was less than conclusive.Several times, the discussion was very tense and we thought we’d never come to an arrangement.

When I developed a feeling towards numbers
I remember when I was in prep school.
Life was a game. Maths was a game.Collect the exercises. Gotta catch them all.We spent a lot of time with friends, sharing exercises…
Some people didn’t do that. They were thinking about the stakes.They were thinking about their future. What they would be doing later on.What the results would [...]

La grenouille a faim.
La grenouille sauta sur le bord de la fenêtre.Un vent frais soufflait. Petite brise du matin.Elle écarquilla les yeux, et vit passer un embouteillage de petits nuages.
