I want a big forehead...

Term paper is due on June 15. However, up to now not a single word has been written. How wonderful it would be if I did not need to write papers? How wonderful it would be if I only needed to process the data and hand it to others? 


Comparing with paper writing, many things become more tolerable. Today I spent some time reviewing Pro.M's econometrics notes of last term. I wish I did it earlier. After the review, several things I was confused about in one paper became clear. And I feel more comfortable to give the reason why I should use the bootstrap technique in my term paper. Pro.M is a very nice person. And I always daydreamed in his class and begun to do the preparation job two days (yeah, it is really two days!) before his exams. The exams were quite easy usually and he gave us some samples which were similar to our tests before the tests. So it made me, the lazy person, only know how to give the right answer to the test questions, but did not know what he talked about at all. Now when I look back and review the notes, I find them are quite useful. I should really spend some time on my econometrics...So many things need to make up...
I really hate my memories. I always forget what I have learned immediately. Pro.C said that he was forgetful. I did not think so at all. He can remember everything what he did in his last paper, which makes me envy him very much. I believe nobody is as forgetful as I am. I wish I had a big forehead. It seems people with big forehead are always very smart and have good memories. Pro.C, Pro.K, Pro.H, Pro.L, SGB, XLY...And a big forehead can make people look quite cute...
Paper writing is more like a labor work sometimes. You need to spend a lot of time confirming information, process data, and so on...Since I still want to get some fun from this paper writing, I decide to use the risky bootstrap technique. That means a lot of extra work. Macro codes may speed up the process a bit, while the leverage makes it quite complicated and I am really not in the mood to enjoy trying some new codes now. And what makes me more headache is how to export the results into tables in good format. Luckily, Pro.C sent me the main tables. Still I have several others need to be made. I really have no idea how to make tables look as beautiful as he did.Water and Piggy had done all the excel and ppt work before. Sometimes always having nice friend around is not a good thing. It can make your life easy but it can also make you become more and more stupid...


Anyway, I must begin now. Yeah, tomorrow. Count down, 10...Let me have a rest now:)
