Simcity fun

So I've been playing Simicity 4 a bit more recently. I connected one of my cities to a bigger city through a subway line. I returned to my bigger city to play around and start building it up. Then all of a sudden I noticed this:

I was suddenly making 10,000$ a month! and my transit revenue was 10,000$ a month. I have never hit this high before. So I decided to look around and see what was happening. Lo an behold I ran into this!

That's all for today folks.

Oh and I expect to have more time (hopefully/maybe) to start updating more regularly. I'm taking one less course this semester, and have 2 days off a week. The other thing I am hoping to do is some serious reading. I have 2 main classic sort of books to hit this semester. Adam Smith's Wealth on nations, and On the road to serfdom by Hayek. We'll see how that goes. I'm thinking I should maybe read Smith's Theory of Moral sentiments first, but I'm not sure. The next big classic book will be by Keynes.

Done and done!

First semester of my Master's finished. Boy does it feel good!

I and many of my fellow students spent an entire day from 9:00-7:00 in a case study competition. What a long day!!!

In the end I thought everything went well and my presentation went well.

Boy am i glad that case competition is over...

Here was my opening slide. I enjoyed it very much.

Stressed out grad students... they're everywhere

So it's been quite some time since my last post, maybe I'll add "attempt to blog more frequently" to my forthcoming (at some point in the future) new year's resolutions.

Anyways I am currently struggling to finish a 20 page paper due tomorrow, and figured it would be a perfect time to blog. Anything to pass the time, and procrastinate a little longer...

I've noticed that a lot of my fellow grad students are quite stressed out, and to be honest I am too, but I don't think i could live like they do. Maybe it's a woman thing (I don't have to be politically correct on here, and all the anecdotal evidence I have collect comes from women, and besides they make up a large substantial majority of the students in my program...)

Maybe these students are taking things more seriously than I am, maybe they cope in different ways. I just find that a lot of my fellow students are busy "freaking out" and I just don't get it. I'm enjoying the ride, and trying hard, and keeping my cool as much as I can.

I can't be bothered to get all worked up, I did that in my undergrad and it didn't end well. Perhaps, It's that sense of perspective I gained through those trying times..

Anyways I'm off now to get that paper done, wish me luck
