toaster oven hits the spot!

last week was a good week. there's a new sandwich shop down the street from my work that tastes just like potbelly in chicago. potbelly was one of the places that i knew i would miss, but now all my cravings for a yummy toasted sandwich with hot peppers are now satisfied.

learning is fun!

i'm back to studying to occupy my time. i'm partly freaked about this exam that i plan on taking in june called the CFA Program Level 1 exam. (CFA stands for Chartered Financial Analyst). i'm getting sponsored by my company (even though it is only slightly related to my current job) as long as i pass everything. the exam is tough -- they recommend studying 250+ hours and it only has a 30% pass rate (yikes!). i start taking review classes in january, but right now i'm focused on reviewing the material i'm not so comfortable with, like accounting and economics.

not much else is going on...saw mos def, talib kweli, pharoah monche, and jean grae on oct 30th. it was bomb, but now i have truly seen all the hip-hop shows that i will ever need to.

album of the moment: The Once and Future, Jazzyfatnastees - oldie but goodie from my college days; great for studying to.
