What have I learned today?

What have I learned today?

I am learning all the time.  The tombstone will be my diploma.  ~Eartha Kitt

Now a days, every new day brings with it a whole lot of, well new things. Each day is a new learning experience. So, what have I learned today?

  • hmmm, first, never, and I have to repeat this, NEVER, underestimate the use and power of salt in your food. It is better to put less of it than to ruin the food by putting loads.
  • Second, the word “accounting” comes from word account, which comes from the Middle-English word acounte, accompte, which comes from the Anglo-French word acunte. What a mouthful??
  • Thirdly, Game Theory is not about designing and playing computer games. It is just a fancy name invented by crazy scientists for some thoery that has got something to do with strategising and that uses some sort of logical table  to do some otherwise very mundane things which even my granny can do with her octogenarian brain. huh!!
  • Fourthly, I shall have to leave my habit of procrastination behind if I want to survive at the LSE. Feeling lost and moronic in a class full of geniuses is the last thing I want to remember myself by. (and drawing your lecturer’s face in the notebook is not called modern art)
  • and finally, LSE is turning out to be just too much for me… its almost time to press the SOS button… anybody out there!! please help… HELP!!
