Biting Off More Than You Can Chew

So the First Week of Lectures is over. I started with Political Economy on Monday, Introduction to Econometrics at 9AM on Tuesday and Thursday (oh yeah!) Development Economics Tuesday as well. Nothing on Wednesday (nice!) and Latin America & the International Economy on Friday. The professors seem good for the most part and looking more and more at the campus, I wish sometimes Georgetown would man-up and step up to the plate and get with the program. Some of the facilities are really good here and put Gtown to shame. On the other hand some of the bureaucratic efficiency just is a pain. I guess you can't have it both ways.

Oh yes so biting off more than you can chew...I got sick, woke up shivering violently in the middle of the night, I have a few hypotheses as to why...besides those secret hypotheses, I think I'm pushing to hard and running a mile a minute all the time. I have barely been here at all and I have been tying to do everything, every moment and take advantage of London and speed learn the city. Maybe I knew DC and NYC, so I want to get up to speed here. Maybe I should slow it down before I tear myself to pieces. Maybe other things are getting me worn down too: who knows.

In other news, LSE's mascot is the beaver (with all the sexual innuendo jokes that go along with it). Also I tried to hawk to Pulse! Radio (LSE's radio station) the idea of my classic rock/rare tracks/ musicology show. I also threw in I was tech director and a DJ for a while back on the Hilltop and that I would help out with tech stuff. hehe doesn't hurt to brown nose a bit. We'll see if I get a slot.
