So I am sitting at my desk trying to find something to do….still have like 2 hours before I can go home. So far, this week has been…ok?

I celebrated the Jewish New Years with my family on Monday which was pretty cool, the food was great too so I couldn’t complain. I took the day off on Tuesday due to the holiday as well which I was pretty happy about. Who wouldn’t want a day off?

So what did I do on my da off? Well my CD matured so I took the time to go to WAMU and renew it. They had an awesome rate (5%) which I took advantage off. I won’t be able to touch the money for a year but the rate is worth it. I also redid my money market account because they were having another awesome promotion…the rate on that is like 4%. That took about half the day…the other half I spent studying for my exam . Not the most exciting day off but it’s still better then coming to work.

I think when I get home today I’ll try and do a bit more studying before the VP debate…I am looking forward to it as it should be fairly entertaining.

So whats going on…nothing really. Same old stuff, different day. I am studying for my GMAT which is taking up a lot of time and I think I am not ready for the exam. I keep wondering why I am even taking the GMAT but that’s another story. I think the problem I am having with that exam is the math…I am just horrible at it and every question on that exam aims to confuse/trick you.

Work? Well…nothing new on that front as well. I am happy the industry I am in isn’t affected by what’s going on in Wall Street. I have to start looking for a new job that pays well but I keep thinking now isn’t a great time to do it.

I got an ipod for my dad as a birthday gift. It was a brand new touch and he loves it. Its remarkable how thin it is. My iphone finally works right and I actually did a jailbreak so I can install a bunch of cool stuff on it like themes. I am still playing with it and keep discovering more stuff for it .

What else…oh yea! I decided to try out an online dating service. So far, I have been on a few dates. The first date, I actually really like the interests I share with this one guy but…there are more negatives then positives about him. For example…he dresses like a slob, he never calls me (only talks to me when I am on AIM) and is just very unattentive which I hate. I tried talking to him about it but he just got very defensive. The second guy I went out with yesturday seems really nice. He’s really into theater which I dont visit too much due to time constraints and price. I’ll probably go on a second date with him just to see what happens.
