exit the warrior
Today gave me a rare experience of pure inadequacy. Thank you econometrics. Aside from Easter Weekend, not much stood in the way of me and a nicely taken test. I am pretty sure I failed to stack up, not because of procrastination or distraction or any other tom foolery, but I just flat out got schooled. Hopefully the curve saves my little hiney. I guess having one of these experiences every so often keeps you grounded and helps you refocus on that which needs refocusing on. The final shall see me reclaiming my dignity.
In the past 10 or 14 days, I've initiated communication with probably 6 - 10 companies/non-profits and have heard back from merely one of them. I can't help but note that I contacted that one through their customer contact function, so they probably thought I wanted to buy something. Most of my emails were inquiring about their internship programs or actually sending in an application. All companies had internship postings, so I KNOW they need/want interns. I can't say I'm impressed with the way any have treated a potential employee and perhaps future customer or long term contributer. It would have been a great way to get me to start talking about their cause/products/name. Guess not.
One of these days I'm going to catch a break.

I too was raped by an econometrics test today, but this was the result of procrastination, lack of motivation, and probably AIESEC in part. Be strong Williams, the final is where we take our revenge and pillage every hypothesis test in sight.
It's late and I'm tired so end it here, I will.
Spring Break '97!!
keep on keepin' on
you have a little hiney?? hairy hiney should have been the statement..
It takes a real man to acknowledge when he's been conquered.
Yea, brokeback?
firstly econometrics rules the earth... go homoscedesticity(aka brokeback mountain). On another note good luck with school and companies dont respond to emails. Only the one I work at now did and thats because they liked my resume
