Last Semester?

And so another semester has begun. This one, like the majority of my other grad school ones, should be easy. I have three classes: Human Decision Making (an IE elective), design and analysis of experiments (an IE course to satisfy a math credit... but I already learned this stuff) and special problems, which has to do with the decision making and my contract work. All in all, I have class from 3-6 on Monday and 3-430 on Tues/Thurs. By far the easiest schedule yet.

Whether this is my last semester of taking classes is still up in the air. Each day I go back and forth on the PhD thing. I aim to land on no PhD. Seriously, spending all of my 20s in school doesn't seem that appealing. Being compensated accordingly for my work does. Leaving all my work from the past 3 years doesn't. I intend on using the theory I learn in my decision making class to help with this one.

I leave on Thursday of next week to visit my good friend Sarah in Hartford, CT. This is the first trip I've taken on my own in a while. I'm excited to go see her, but a little sad to miss out on all the fun I've been having here. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to make the most of my upcoming fun here :-)
