For those students who really love problem solving, who care and are inquisitive but are disappointed at their chapter's/state's performance, I want to let you know that it's an honor meeting you online and learning from/along with you.
I know no matter how sincere I write here, it won't help much, so I'll just shut up.
However, I'm also disappointed at some students who said they need to take a break for the foreseeable future.
Well, if you love ___ (fill in the blank), you won't stop if you don't get to the chapter/state/nationals.
So there...
Here are some articles that after your taking a break from problem solving (I hope it's not too long), hope to see you come back and read them. Best of luck !! Keep me posted !!
