Hi I am sorry for not taking time out for updating the virtual world about my really exciting life. My sincere heartfelt apologies.
Ok so lets catch up now, here is a list of recent happenings in my life:
I finally gave my FA midterm, thought I aced it, but actually I didnt, not a lot of people did. I know that is not an excuse, the sad thing is that I did not commit a mistake, my concept on how to solve the problem's critical step was wrong and hence the my grade suffered. But I did not hit rock bottom, and must be around the average so that's some consolation.
Similar disasters happened with InfoTech and OrgComm which has virtually destroyed my dreams of 4.0 GPA and revalued my expectations to a 3.5.
The new solution I learned for multiple choice questions is that even if an answer is right, but some other option in the given options is a "preferred answer" then the answer that you think is right, is actually wrong because the other option is also right plus it is preferred. God Bless America.
My typing speed has gone down drastically because I try to avoid typing in everyday life and since I broke up with Sneha no one makes me type for hours on MSN Messenger anymore. Yes I use MSN and not AIM, if you have a problem you know where Bill (Gates) put the X button on ur browser. For apple users, I am sorry you are already doomed.
I have to right an email for OrgComm right now, and was pretty slow at it, hence I decided that I should vent my emotions a little bit.

I had to pick a major, which is a really important decision but I am still not sure. One thing I am sure about is that marketing is not going to happen. Other options Accounting and Management are somethings that I will use the most in my professional life but neither of which are rocket science and something not spending so much money and time learning. That leaves me two options, Information Systems and Actuarial Science. I have decent background in both as I did C++ for 2 years in high school and am still a decent programmer and I am India (hello we invented zero) so Math is in my blood. Actuarial is really tough and boring but I think I might survive. I know I am not going to crunching numbers for most of life, but it will be a useful skill to have. Computers and Internet are not a thing that is going to happen in the future, it has already happened in the present and in the future its going to life blood of existence. So it would not be a bad idea to be more handy. Though Stern IT program is not engineering and I will not be as good as most engineers but Math at NYU is the best and my actuarial degree will and should be really valuable.
Man this shit is more complicated than i thought, may be I will email some of mentors and ask for advice and see what they say. I guess that is not a bad idea.

I think I should get back to my work now.

Today I had an FA midterm, it was easy stuff, not a lot to study and I dont think I did bad at all. I can't say good because its the STERN curve, so you know one silly mistake and I might not get an A. So lets hope for the best.
Also I am shocked at how intricately twisted question can be made out of a simple concept. Especially if its a multiple choice. Damn these Americans, sorry for you patriots but its true. I think I should have learned that after my SAT exams. The bloody options are there to play with your mind. I used to think options makes things easier as they are out there, and you do not have that many to choose from, but now I know, once you read all of them the devil inside your brain pops up and whispers, " May be that one is right as well." And you say to yourself, "Damn you I am screwed." Trust me on this, you are much easier answering direct questions as then you land on the softer side of things, and the professor has the option of being kind to you. Which in case does not exist since you are right or WRONG. By experience, I can say multiple choice questions have confused me of some of my concepts of which I was much clearer before.

Anyways have to go now to study for Information Technology though that should be pretty easy as well.

By the way for those of you who find this uninteresting please close your bloody browser right now. For those of you who think you can add on to it, please do you are more than welcome.

I am just doing this as an advice from a friend to improve my written English. Lets see if it works.
