I'll be trialling new content, like vlogs, only piano key videos and others to see how they perform - but most of all let me know what you enjoy!
I know this is completely unrelated to your video, but I have to say you look genuinely happy with your life. Your energy is magnetic. I noticed that you didn’t put headphones in when you did your work, and it made me think about your phone usage habits. Could you tell me about your phone habits and do you listen to music (probably a silly question)? Side note, I found your channel because I am learning Moonlight Sonata and found that 2010 video😂 have subbed!

Just a friendly tip: try to not have your back arched in or out and have the hips leveled with you shoulders when doing planks. This way you prevent some back issues and work more on the core. Also, since I'm from Brazil I feel the need to share a couple Brazilian pieces with you.... So, here you go: -Brejeiro, Odeon and most pieces from Ernesto de Nazareth -Sururu na cidade, and any piece from vila lobos.(rudepoema is quite something) I wanted to share those with you just hoping that you might enjoy them. And who knows if you end up recording some Brazilian piece in this channel, though not complaining on the anime pieces!
it's awesome to see you back making videos after so long! you've made the video just over 10 minutes for ad revenue and called it math instead of maths for the clickbait... you really have become an expert youtuber and i'm so proud 🙏 can't wait for more!
Heyy! Yes I was injured for over a year, it was a tough time - and now I'm back and with more energy :) so glad you enjoyed it, it means a lot! Hope you've been doing well! :)
3 years late, but the x^2 + 2 = y^3 problem is still on GRM problem sheets, I've just finished first year and been looking at the course over the summer and I was very excited to see something I knew how to do in your video lol. Plus it looks like you take loads of the courses I'm interested in for 3rd year, like quantum mechanics, number fields, machine learning, so it's good to have a role model haha, it looks like you had a really good time in your 3rd year :-)
@@宻 Me or the guy who posted the original video? In any case, I got two very borderline S grades (I think one of them literally was on the boundary lol), but I think if you can get 1,1 consistently in practice tests that is more than enough, and lots of people get accepted with 1,2. I can answer questions you might have if you’re interested though 👍
@@malignusvonbottershnike563 you, any tips to excelling in step , and is there any point starting prep yet when my skl hasn’t even started further maths content yet, we learn all of as and a level maths first and start fm in Easter. Congrats on amazing grades
@@宻 from my experience, the hardest part of STEP was getting used to the style of questions, so even though STEP 1 isn’t its own paper anymore, you might enjoy working through the materials from the STEP support programme (it’s on the maths faculty website somewhere), and trying some STEP 1 questions, as that doesn’t include any further maths content so some of them will be doable for you. If you think it’s too early though, no pressure, you’ve got a lot of time and if you want to focus on 6th form stuff then that’s also a sensible decision. And of course, you might change your mind about wanting to apply for maths over the next few months (I remember flipping between engineering, computer science, physics, everything lol), so if you want to wait until you’re 100% set on a maths degree that also makes sense
Hope you make a video of Q&A and here is a question: Why studying Math and how do you balance math study and music practice in your daily routine? Thanks!;)
Hey! Thanks for the question! Q&A sounds like a great idea :) More about math in future videos (when I get time) - and about practice, I don't actually practise that much! In fact, all throughout I'd say I'd average an hour a day. These days I practise about every other day, sometimes even less frequently. So that helps with time management - also to be covered if I get to it. Hope that helps!
It was devotion, and I would have had everything except the broccoli. P.S: I love your energy, it's so positive! Can you please tell me what might happen at the interview?
Not only talented but also smart. And we are the same age.. What did I do wrong? I spend 8 years of my life in music school - never played as good as you did when you were just 10. I spend 4 years of my life studying - weren't even able to go to medical school. I'm literally stupid AND talentless...
You know raffles institution? It’s a school in Singapore and also my school. Last year out of the 400 graduates, 46 went to Cambridge! Personally I chose Harvard, but you must know a lotta peeps frm my sch right
in the future when you graduate and get prof. in mathmatics I think you will be like professor (william James moriarty) he is the main villain or the peer of sherlock holmes also he is professor at maths and he graduated from cambridge university it might be you all or most of you know him he is famous and i like him 😋😋🤗🤔
Hey that's fantastic I too have a dream to study in Cambridge that too ph.D To complete masters how many years will it take And to complete ph.D in math how many years will it take And one more thing!!... To study masters what eligibility will be there
what is it about Japanese people or Chinese people not using a table to sit at to eat? I heard they never wear shoes indoors perfect im not Japanese or Chinese im 39 yr old and I detest wearing socks and shoes why? because I love the ground underneath my feet on the feel of the soul of my feet, why? I haven't a Rudy clue why lol, I have been like that my whole life, id love to be able to hold chopsticks myself I have a tremor that runs through my whole nervous system, I can nearly hold a spoonful in my hand let alone chopsticks, I love the Chinese or Japanese people there kids a so damn adorable and when there young they looks so attractive with beautiful smile and I love Shanghai noodles the best type of noodle you can ever get is the original, I love Chinese cuisine, im not sure about Japanese quisine I think its the same thing they have such beutifull smile just like them in this video.
i’m not sure but arabs are very similar and from what i read on them they probably do it so they can all be equal maybe, so a king will also sit down when eating next to a peasant perhaps?

Maths at trinity college? That’s amazing!
Trinity is in Dublin not england
@@Thegravyman90 it's also a college in Cambridge, and regarded at the best for mathematics
@@ray-ln5ex ohhhh sorry I was thinking about the one here in ireland
@@Thegravyman90 no problem man. The Dublin one is pretty good aswell I'm sure?
@@ray-ln5ex yup it has the legendary book of kells for us Irish

More then 10 years
Interesting different perspective. I was looking at Flo's channel.
Thanks!
Same bruh
Beautiful life experience for you all folks. Enjoy, and that stamps into the heart all life long.
Thank you
Michael: Why do you like it so much?
Thomas: Because.... It's interesting.
Me: So that's how you pass the interview, I see.
Wow cambridge. That's awesome!! Also, you should do more of these and more piano!!
Thank you so much! Coming soon - was out due to injury!
I love the fact that you're always smiling

Do we get a financial aid or a scholarship in Trinity. plz make a video on how u got into Trinity and what made u interested in mathematics
:OOOOO awesome!
hope to see more piano from you, you never fail to impress!
Is that request list of yours from however long ago still in effect?
Yaaaaay thank you!! Was out due to injury, but hopefully gradually back now - we will see about the request list 😎
I love how his maths book is so neat…

The campus looks like it was out of harry potter movie and the place where you went after looks like a good place to make a RE game
Ita really cool to see how asian people stay together like thej know they come from far.

Very peculiar question coming: what pen were you using? Looked great :)
U are so intelligent!!
7:22 omg thats such a math student thing to say hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂
This was fun to watch, I would have loved to see the cryptography class. Are you still studying in 2023?
Thank you! No longer studying but still enjoying music!
Love it :3, any future plans to feature struggling appliedmo like me? xD
If we get the chance... hope things work out! :)
How do you balance your life with Piano and math? Do you have double major?

Couldn't have put it better myself :)
Devotion !
Yesss
Were you an IMO contestant? Or what (if any) olympiads did you give?
michaelng126.wordpress.com/maths/ :)
@@MichaelNgPiano It says you were eventually selected as ‘reserve’ for the IMO. What does that mean?
Can you give us a more in depth day of what happens as a math cambridge student
What was the name of the game with the hidden word ?
I think it was 'Brain Yoga'
Do you have the sheet music for moonlight sonata 3rd movement? I’m having trouble finding it. Never mind I found it somewhere else.
imslp
It was devotion, and I would have had everything except the broccoli.
P.S: I love your energy, it's so positive! Can you please tell me what might happen at the interview?

You're not, just find your purpose and what you're good at as well as passionate about. You'll get there In Shaa Allah
