GLORY GLORY MAN U!!!

Glory Glory Man United!!! With Chelsea choking at the home stretch, drawing at Arsenal 1 - 1. Manchester United clinched the English Premier League yesterday. Even though it would be sweeter to win it without Chelsea's help, but a win is still a win. It's definitely some good news I can use after the devastating, outclassed and lousy performance (or lack thereof) when they lost 3 - 0 against AC Milan on Wednesday.

Last weekend was pretty bland, other than studying, sleeping, eating, and the only highlight, catching Spiderman 3, HIP THRUST!!!... oops, I don't know where did that come from, but well, it's just as random as the HIP THRUST in the movie. Other than some corny scenes here and there, Spidey 3, in my opinion, is better than the 2nd, but not as good as the first... (well, pretty much every trilogies are like that... LOTR, and hopefully, Pirates of the Carribean).

So, I'm being hopeful again, with some internship opportunities, but, I really don't like this last minute thing, because half of me is planning on going to Camp Davis, in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. And this possibility of getting an internship is definitely what I want to do for the Summer too. I mean, it would be a great opportunity for me to look at which field (consulting or insurance and in insurance (Property & Casualty or Pension/Life)) of actuarial work do I want to venture into. And, any experience is good experience in this field for me.

But, all these will only matter after my 3rd - 3.5th actuarial exams on May 17th. I still have tons of material to study for the MFE exam. But currently, my plan is to focus on MLC and see how much I can get through on MFE. I don't want to get 5 on both of my exams. That would be a huge blow and I would rather get a 6 and 1, at least passing one of the two papers.
(Sorry for being all nerdy and using actuarial jargons but, well, if I were to study 6-8 hours a day on actuarial stuff, I might as well walk and talk like one... so, now, how does an actuary walk?)

Well, other than studying, I still watch some tv series and NBA playoffs... GO PISTONS!!! 24 tonight, House tomorrow, Lost on Wednesday...!!!

So, that's pretty much my week... Study, eat, TV... I need to start running again!!! I blame it on my not being able to use the gym. (but seriously, the weather is great... with 20+ Celcius high, it can't be any better.)

So, take care, and I'll go back to put-call parity, options, futures, black-scholes, greeks...
