Things I Have Done in Lieu of Studying for CFA

1. Watched Pirates of the Carribean premiere during "study leave"

2. Marathon Star Trek movies on Cinemax

3.Fantasized about marrying Spock (Commander, the Admiral version was slightly flabby and less of tasty man candy)

4. Learned how to play "Last Kiss" by Pearl Jam on dusty old old guitar lying around the house

5. Badminton

6. Formulated extensive and thorough plan for world domination (mien secret, not to be revealed on this very popular blog with many thousands and billions of readers)

7. Spent many hours lying on bed, staring at ceiling, thinking about how I should approach my impending failure. Options:

a) With flair: Stand up suddenly in exam hall exclaiming " I can't believe this shit! I thought this was supposed to be HARD!" and storm out, or
b) In a disturbing manner: Bring colour pencils to highlight important terms for subjective paper. Illustrate answers with diagrams. When unsure, draw a large puzzled looking baby giraffe. Colour it blue. or
c) With grace: Sit there and start to weep quietly with sadness


And those... were the most benign of the lot. When will I ever truly stop sabotaging my life?

backin the cesspool of DOOM

Hi! (waves)

Here I am again.

About the same place where I was a year ago. Immersed in what can only be described as a very large pool of Shit. Why do I always subject myself to long drawn out periods of absolute torture where I spend many unproductive hours staring at walls and freaking out at coming exams, and then potter off to do something completely unrelated like watching STAR TREK: The Original Series.

Why?

WHYYYYY????

Is it because I am:
a) A masochistic sadist
b) A lazy bastard
c) The Lord of Procrastination Central
d) All of the above

I would personally go for (d).

Why am I still taking exams? WHY WHY WHY??? I don't understand. All this exam taking nonsense was supposed to end with CE594: Transportation Systems Analysis taking during the Fall Semester of 2002. An exam which I ACED by the way!!! (ok, so there was this niggling little detail about how the professor's lazy ass likes to duplicate past year exam questions, which I had a copy of... but still.. ACED ok?).

Now I'm going to fail.

I can see it coming. People are going to ask, "Hey, how's your CFA coming"

And I'll be like, "I failed. Shut up and Go Away. You're very ugly and have body odour. Nobody loves you. Not even your own mother."

Of course the logical thing to do, would be to shut up, glue my lard ass to my chair and study like CrAzy. But here I am. (Hello!) Bloggin.

OI!

Manhunt

Had a little medical thing today so I popped by the doctor's (+2 points) who was rather cute in a geeky chinese person way (+0.5 points). He was a heart specialist (+2 points) and a Harvard graduate (+10 points!!!). That was when I spotted the hint of snot at the edge of his nostrils (-1,000 points).

Sigh.

Where have all the good men gone?
