It’s the 2012 NBA playoffs. The Chicago Bulls are playing the Philadelphia
76ers. There’s one minute and twenty-two seconds left on the clock and Derrick Rose
drives in and performs a hop-step. He comes down on to the hardwood squirming in

run. My interest in these subjects will give me the capacity to understand and apply these
subjects when I move deeper into my education, even beyond undergraduate studies.
