Fall
Oct/23/08 06:05 AM
Dare I say that I’m looking forward to the end of this election? Maybe its because of McCain’s dimming prospects or maybe its becuase this event has been going on for what feels like ages, but I won’t miss the constant gotcha-questions and articles, the mud slinging, and the faux controversies...
Anyways, its midterm time down at Georgetown. I had two last week, one tomorrow, and one more next week. It’s also finally beginning to feel like fall- 60s during the days and colder at nights. Apparently it snowed today up in Vermont! We’re not quite there, yet. I know the boat has been pulled out of the water back home after a successful season. I’m still jealous to see all the boats traveling up the Potomac on weekends here, where they generally stay in until Thanksgiving.
I’m also doing a cool, though time-consuming, project for one of my finance classes. I’m in charge of presenting an in-depth analysis and forecast of CVS/Caremark Corporation’s financials and valuation for the next five years. It’s a good taste of what most Georgetown business graduates do out of college for the first years of their careers. And its nice to finally put a lot of the things I’ve learned in accounting and finance over the past two and a half years to work. Who knows though, this might scare me away from the finance industry even more.
Well, there’s an update on my life in DC (an update unasked, I realize). Only about a month until Thanksgiving break!
