11 Signs You're A Math Education Major

In This Article:

While this major has so much to offer, it can also be very rough. Some wonder why we put ourselves through this hectic life of becoming a math teacher, but we all know it's because this job is the one for us!

1. You always refer to yourself as a double major.

Because let's face it, you are.

2. You have absolutely no clue how you're going to finish in four years.

Education requirements, math requirements, gen-eds, where does it end?

3. You're already planning your classroom on Pinterest.

Aaaaaand you're just a freshman.

4. You want to own anything that involves math puns.

I mean, you ARE pi-lingual, so why not wear that shirt that tells everyone?

5. You could probably teach English since you have so much experience with an insane amount of letters in each problem you solve.

Wow, now we're triple majors!

6. You've learned to alter your writing so that your letters don't look like numbers or symbols.

Now your t's have a nice curved bottom so they don't look like plus signs.

7. People ask you why you don't become an engineer if you like math so much.

"You'd make soooo much more money!"

8. People are always confused about how you can enjoy this.

I don't know, because it's just super fun!

9. You work math puns into your everyday life.

10. Sometimes you wonder why you ever decided to do this to yourself.

So. Much. Work.

11. Then you think about how Pinterest-worthy your future classroom will be.

And you realize that it is so worth it!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
