Today we took our final exam in Introduction to Finance. We covered a whole semester's worth of material in two weeks and it definitely felt like it. Every day we spent a minimum of six hours in the classroom. It was pretty miserable at the beginning of the semester (you know, a week ago) because it was above 90 every day in a classroom with no air conditioning and 32 people packed on top of each other. I am thrilled to have one class under my belt and I'm looking forward, hopefully, to the new finance class we start on Monday because it's International Finance and I'll find it interesting.

After
our final, my roommates and I went to Lugano. It was only a 30 minute
train ride to a beautiful town on Lake Lugano. This is where in the
spring Virginia Tech has a marketing program. We were able to shop and
walk around while enjoying beautiful weather. At the top of my shopping
list was flip flops and a watch. I had no luck finding flip flops but
found a watch so I no longer have to feel in a constant time warp since I
don't carry my phone around with me and never know the time.

My
favorite part of the trip was walking along the water. The views were
absolutely stunning. While walking the crooked streets, we noticed a
used book street vendor and much to our surprise, there was a Virginia
Tech book looking right at us!!
