Me and My Life
Well, it’s done. I just submitted my final exam for “Repair of Concrete Structures” and recently sat for my Structural Engineering 1 exam. Part 2 comes in October assuming I pass part 1 and the bureaucrat labyrinth named The State of Kansas approves of me in time.
It is time for a much needed break. And maybe I can get back to all the other things I used to love in life. Like cooking, tinkering, reading, and writing. As for the later, let me wet your appetite by saying that I’ve been thinking a lot about debt and risk on the bus in the mornings. There’s this book called “Black Swan” I hope to pick up soon. It is very much in the “Small is Beautiful” thread but with a twist. It’s written by a Statistician. Also, I need to say a few words about parenting, though I think I can learn a lot from those here.
Peace be with you.

Congratulations! I just took a monster actuarial exam last Tuesday, so I know how you feel. With only two more to go, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel…

Geeze, how many of those exams do you have to take total? What does it do for you?

There’s 9 total. I think I just passed number 7. That was my third attempt on that particular one. It is probably the worst out of all 9.
What I get out of it is a career that is consistently rated the number one (or sometimes two) best job you can get.
