Maybe I should have done Economics

It maybe a little too late for this but I recently did a quiz for the best major. Surprisingly, I pretty much matched what I had in mind. Guess I can finally relax... or not.






WHAT MAJOR IS RIGHT FOR YOU?
created with QuizFarm.com
You scored as Accounting/Finance/Marketing

You should strongly consider majoring (or minoring) in Accounting, Finance, Economics, Marketing, or related majors (e.g., Computer/Management Information Systems (CIS or MIS), Entrepreneurship, International Business, Operations Management, Public Administration, Real Estate, Risk Management, Sports Management).




It is possible that the best major for you is your 2nd, 3rd, or even 5th listed category, so be sure to consider ALL majors in your OTHER high scoring categories (below). You may score high in a category you didnt think you would--it is possible that a great major for you is something you once dismissed as not for you. The right major for you will be something 1) you love and enjoy and 2) are really great at it.




Consider adding a minor or double majoring to make yourself standout and to combine your interests. Please post your results in your myspace/blog/journal.

Late Night Musings

I can't sleep. And hence I'm suddenly inspired to write a few words.

I don't really have any sort of idea on what I'd write about. But I guess I'll just start it off and the thoughts will follow.

Not true.

Nothing out of the ordinary comes to mind. Or maybe I've spent the last couple of months suppressing my thoughts that the well has dried up, the stream diverted elsewhere.

Well, since there doesn't to be much for me to do now, I shall give myself a couple of minutes to reflect on the last six months.

~

Came home from my vacation with renewed vigour, a direction which to take my life. Armed with new experiences and expectations, I marched on to blaze a new trail. A few months in, that spirit fizzled somewhat but I think I have managed to keep most of its essence with me.

Also, the internship came and went.

It was definitely an eye-opening experience. I've met a lot of interesting ppl to say the least. And finally saw the industry (and its people) for what it truly is. I'm sure the experience has impacted my attitude and perception of life somewhat.

One thing for sure, in the few short months, I've had a change of lifestyle. I went from a homebody to a boy about town. Drink in hand, I feel comfortable going around town seeking for the new dessert or tomorrow's chic dining spot.

And the friends, let's not forget the friends. The source of all good and evil.

~

I'm sleepy now and frankly, a little weary of reminiscing. Looking over my shoulder, I see the good, and also the carnage. Ahead, there is only hope.

I choose to go forward. To move on.
