Crazy day

I got up this morning and stood in line for a relatively short hour to cast my vote. I'm glad to see that the rest of the country seems to agree that Obama was the better choice in this election, and I am excited to have a thoughtful, open, forward looking President in office again.

After I voted I took my actuarial exam. I feel like I probably came up a little short of passing, though passing isn't impossible. It's hard to say for sure because I didn't get a chance to try and remember my answers for comparison with other folks who took the exam. I'll find out for sure in January, but the other two times I felt like this after an exam I got 5's (6 is passing), so I'm going to assume I've got another 5 coming my way. So it goes. On the bright side, I do feel like the exam was fair and that I could have passed given a little more time; I was trying to solve problems right up until the proctor told us to stop working.

I'll try to get my economics credit out of the way by the end of the year and bid a fond farewell to the VEE requirements. After that I'll review my study manual to work on solidifying the few topics that I'm still a little fuzzy on and try to make sure that I can solve problems quickly. If I have to take it again in May I want to be sure to pass.
