Angst: me hates school

Post by Kashluk »

I fucking hate econometrics. Why, oh, why didn't I just stick with social sciences
instead of thinking that 'Hey, widening my degree with some deeper
understanding of economics would be neat'? I can't believe how people can get
the same degree (MBA) by either studying this stuff or then with piece of cake
bullshit topics like 'marketing' or 'leadership and management'. I've spent more
time and killed more brain cells trying to get through single courses of
economics than I did with 60 ECTS worth of accounting. I could've majored in
something as silly as 'entrepreneurship' and gotten a second degree out in a
year or something, pfft, stupid shit.

Fuck, fucking fuck. There, now I got it out. In case someone's wondering, yes,
I'm still graduating next spring, but the difficulty of economics kind of surprised
me. I'm probably hitting the lowest grades, but meh, fuck it. If nothing else,
at least my respect towards (graduated) economists has sky-rocketed.

It's quarter past noon on Wednesday here and I'm going to have a beer. You
guys wanna pop cold ones too and share similar feelings? :drunk:

How about after they forget or ignore parts they don't care for and start shilling for a Master?
