I'd give today a 4.5

Yes, today was a slightly less than ok day. Optimistic me says the day is not yet over. Pessimistic me, and by far the cooler me, says the day cannot be saved at this point.
It all stems from the fact that I have a growing disdain for many of my professors. I know teachers should be respected and I do respect them. But respect and understanding are two very different things when it comes to professors, especially at a graduate level. There is my marketing professor whose sarcasm and pettiness causes nothing but tension and frustration amongst the majority of his students. Then there is my international finance professor. This guy is a trip. The material in this class might as well be written in some tribal aboriginal language...it's that hard. It doesn't help that this guy comes in to class everyday, shares some story about walking barefoot into Switzerland, tells us how he drank potato vodka in the Ukraine, then rants about how he has no idea who Katie Couric is. The fact that I even have a clue as to what interest rate arbitrage is proves that I got skillz. And it is no thanks to the professor.
So basically I just had a frustrating day. There is so much busy work to do between now and Christmas and it seems as if it's all starting to weigh down now all at once. I have a presentation to give tomorrow on a topic that I could not be any less informed about. Since the professor in that class likes the sound of his own voice I am hoping I'll get off the hook. Keep your fingers crossed.
In other news, I applied for a job with AC Nielsen at their Cincinnati office today. It's in market research, right up the alley I want to be in, so hopefully it pans out. We'll see. Keep your other fingers crossed.

Oh and I made a killer gaucamole for dinner tonight. That makes me kinda happy.
