Rantings and ravings. Glimpses of my crazy life. Ramblings about my home in Port Lavaca, my work in Houston, my PhD progress at Texas Tech University, and everything around and in between. I also have a business in Houston (Amaya Consulting) and am working on a joint venture in Papua New Guinea (Herries Engineering and Technical Services). It may seem like madness, but it's a good life, and you are invited to poke around in it a bit as often and as randomly as you wish.

Last Final...Done!
I was totally bummed out after my test tonight (Logic). I studied so hard all day, but with everything that's going on, I just couldn't make all the details stick in my head. Still, I came into tonight with a nice mid-range A. So, if I was able to get anything right at all on the test, perhaps I'll survive without too bad of a final grade.
When I got home, however, I took a look and found out that several of my other final grades are already in. I knew about the "A-" in Moore's Project Management class (boy, was I upset about that one!), but I just found out tonight that I pulled off an "A" in Kovach's Production and Service Operations class (that was a close one!) as well as an "A" in Cassler's Logistics class!
Whoopee! Just for a moment in time, perhaps just for tonight, I have a decent 3.69 GPA. I know it's not enough for a Summa Cu Laude, but it's darn close. And for an old fart like me with a ton of things going on to distract me from my studies, I just have to say I'm really pleased with myself tonight. Tomorrow might be a rough day, and it might even bring more disappointing grades, but tonight...well tonight I feel like celebrating. Tonight I am just plain HAPPY!
