BLISS! 4 months ago

its been nearly three years.

I have ONE more math course to go and i can write my math thesis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

wait.

not enough exclamtion marks

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now i have all the other courses left, just have to do the some applied math courses, some computer science and some buziness/econmics courses. But the the most demanding ( i personally think ) is over even though i quite enjoyed doing the math courses :(. I will miss them.

NEXT… get a masters in financial engeenering and hopefuly do it somewhere FABOLOUS. Graduate and then make beautiful complex mathemaical models for big companies or better yet, for development schemes where needed… or am i kidding myself?

did you know? 4 months ago

the mind has endless memory. One psycology professor beleived that through efficiant memory techniques your brain is capable of holding an infinite amount of information. He ended up learning 80+ langauges by the time he was old. Wow.

I on the other hand, only speak three languages fluently, and now working on my fourth ( french is tough!). Gatt dammit! i will learn my french verbs, arabic slang words, english big words, and swedish jargon words!

Spent all day with the french verbs, preparing for my exam, and it was horrible, but i will NOT give up!!

provocative! 4 months ago

“The picture of Dorian Gray” by the provocative and brilliant Oscar Wilde. My sister has been going on and on and oooon about how great it is, will read it now.

“Girls of Riyadh” by Rajaa Alsanea is a book i recently finished, which also caused outrage when it was first published. They call it the Arab’s world’s “Sex and the City”. I was completly consumed by it, not because it was the best book but because I too have lived in Riyadh. Ah, to be reminded of young forbidden love and know all the familiar places, food, and hide-outs the author was talking about was like a trip down memory lane…
