so lately, i've been thinking a lot about my major and career and such. this comes with the fact that im trying to get an internship and everything. i realize that i still do not even know what i want to do. i mean, i look at all the jobs that i can apply to, and everything seems great. but the main reason i would apply to one is for the salary. seriously though, i'm being honest. do i really want to be a financial consultant for deloitte or a marketing manager for nissan? i don't even know. all i know is that economics is kinda interesting and i wouldn't mind applying the concepts i learn as a job. well, just because i know you guys are interested, heres the top five positions that i'm applying for this summer.
1)Position #5: AT Kearney - Business Analyst
2)Position #24: Deloitte Consulting, LP - Consulting
3)Position #42: PricewaterhouseCoopers - Financial Advisory Services
4)Position #61: Deloitte & Touche, LLP - Professional Services
5)Position #53: Nissan North America - Marketing - Northwest Region
yeah, i don't even know anything about all of them except for nissan. and i hope it's the right nissan that im thinking about. anyways, these are the ones that require and economics major and a high gpa so i'm like, hey! thats me. so i just decided to choose them.
well enough about that. i finally finished all my midterms for round #1. i got my ass kicked in ids110. and i think i sucked at the rest of the midterms as well. man, this semester seems so much harder but i am taking easier classes. i think its cuz ive gotten hella lazy. or it may be motivation. i mean, i got into my econ major already. the only reason i would want to keep up my gpa would be for grad school but im not even sure i wanna do that.
why did i get good grades anyways? i think the reason was just to prove to people i could. berkeley's full of people that are cocky as fuck. i guess my motivation was to show them. =]
and hey, for those of you that know me, you know i dont brag or say anything about my grades. im usually really modest about it. except when i need to rub it in the faces of people who didnt think i could get them. =] look through this livejournal though. i dont think i ever mentioned my gpa. i havent even mentioned it in this update. so theres your proof alright.
im just going on and on with whatever pops into my head. so this weeks gonna be pretty chill. i have a lot of homework but my next midterm is not until the day before spring break. and the homework isnt too bad. i guess ill just use this week to catch up on everything. i need to start reading too for my classes.
thats the key to getting good grades. keeping up with classes and reading and studying and not falling behind. maybe thats why im sucking this semester. bleh, anyways, for those of you who always ask how i do it, theres your answer.
so how bout them sharks? yeah, they rule! i have no one to really talk hockey to so you guys are gonna read it. the san jose sharks are going to the playoffs, unless they lose the rest of their games this season. (knock on wood). i really think they need to trade for an offensive player. i mean, they can score and stuff but you have no one that the other team is afraid of. someone that can make plays and finish them whenever they want. they have some guys that can do this, but they aren't consistent. well thats my take on the sharks this season. i hope they make some big trades before the deadline.
