hi hi again

Haven't blogged in over a month now I think - I think blogging is only something I do when I have something to say to the general public, and currently my only feelings I have towards the general public is one of apathy.

But then again, friends do read this blog, and I do have to keep people updated on my life, no matter how much of it is reduced to work work and more work.

And I shall blog about work. Funny how Chicago Economics doesn't teach you Econ - it teaches you math. As in if you differentiate this, you get this. Show it's decreasing. Voodoo math - voila. What happened to the Economics? I learned more of Econ from my online coursework for SEO than from class. i.e. CPI, PPI, discount rates, LIBOR, ECI, - these are the bread and butter of economic indicators, and there we are in the classroom building models of how people behave.

Which doesn't mean I don't like it - I very much prefer Macro to Micro - haven't got a single A for Micro yet, and I remember back in JC, when I studied ONLY elasticity for micro and did 3 other Macro questions. So much more fun to talk big when you know very little haha.

And if you guys haven't known yet, I'll be in HK this summer. I won't be back in SG till ermm September earliest? Been taking a lot of finance courses - might be a route I want to take the in the future, and frankly, I find finance a lot more interesting than ermm... Philosophy or whatever goes for Courses in this University.

My transcript reads like a finance student - not an Econ student. Math, Statistics, Economics, GSB Investments, Financial Accounting, Intro to Finance, and the assorted German classes. I shall attempt to write in German now and then, just to screw around haha....

Aber ich kann nur ein bisschen Deutsch. Ich kam da und dad, geh zur und zur, und habe nicht mehr studiert. Ich bin nur eine kleine Menge auf der Welt gewusst.

I miss home. Happy CNY everybody - then again, my home is more fluid now that I have seen the world.

Ich bin mit dem Zeitgeist geflogen, und der Zeitgeist ist unberechenbar.
