Personal Narrative: My First Math Autobiography

This is my first math autobiography. I have sat here reminiscing about my math experiences. For starters math has not been my favorite or strongest subject. Many years I have struggle with it. It seems like when my teachers would start to talk about math I would cringe at the thought of it. Never liked math. Always would say what does math have to do with my job or the job I’m getting? What’s the need of it? Not going to use it that much. But little did I know I will use it the rest of my life. In middle school that’s when everything started to take a turn for the worst.
