What's Your Opportunity Cost? 

So... it seems like it was a million years ago when I started my economics class. You will remember that I took this class for... ummm, the heck of it. Because I was intrigued by what I could learn.

I started off well enough. I studied hard, did pretty well, attended every class, did all my homework, blah blah blah.

And then I started my new job. Oy! Who woulda figured that a simple job change could wreck havok on a class???

My grades plummeted, but I kept fighting through.

Still, my desire to ace the class carried me through. I continued to work as hard as I could, and as football players say, I left it all out on the field.

Tonight, I attended my last class - prior to next weeks' final exam. If I could swing an 85 on tonight's test, I figured I would have an A - regardless of the final (aka, I wouldn't have to take the final!).

I had not taken a few points into account, and ended up needing 43 points. Now remember, this was for an A. I already have a B locked up.

Well, I still don't know how I did on the test, but I will find out in a few days. The bottom line is... even if I get a B... I don't think I'm gonna take the final.

I learned a whole lot in this class regardless of the grade. And the sad part is that I really am glad it's over.

Come on A!!!!
