Day of Days

Today was the last day of finals.  I’ve been studying everyday since last week.  I did well overall, in calculus, econometrics, I expect excellents grades.  In Cost Benefit analysis, a class that was a lot of fun considering it is the hardest class I’ve ever taken, I will accept whatever I get.  I worked hard for that grade, and it represents a lot of sweat and tears.  The linear algebra final I took, inspired me to go home, and change my schedule to avoid ever taking that teacher again.  My grade in there is a big question mark.  The professor was a nightmare, and I’m frustrated with him for how much he may have ruined my understanding of the subject.  We’ll see how it goes, but I hope I get a least a B.

Now, for some time off…

New Journeys, a week & five years

My last day on my job that I’ve held for the last 5 years is next friday. To be honest, I can’t wait. It’s the continuation of my journey to economist. I’m going to start studying for the GRE to get a master’s of science in applied math, statistics, so that I can get a Ph.D. in economics. Quitting the job means I can focus fully on school and forget about being a paralegal, finally. Paralegalling was good for me, and I learned a lot of important skills, such as reasoning and writing. But, it’s time to continue my journey to doing something else with my life, so I’m taking the old skills and heading down a new path that is exciting for me. Even though, I’m still sure most people would think all this math and economics is boring, it makes me happy. So it goes.
