Finance Girl Starter Pack
1. Books
You will read books but don’t be overwhelmed by them. Every finance book reiterates the same thing. Understand the difference between personal, corporate, public, and international finance. Hence there are certain I moody to vocabulary for each field. Once you become family with the basics, it will be easier to understand as you go on.
2. Finance media
Being on top of the financial news is a good way of knowing the finance. You’ll come across real life scenarios of some of your textbook definitions. Watch CNBC, Bloomberg. You can read Wall Street Journal, Barron’s, Kiplinger. You can also check online sources like Investopedia, Nerdwallet, and some interesting ones that include news on fintech.
3. Productivity & tools
My favorite is Notion. I use it to track assignments and projects, Google Calendar is your friend. Know how to use Google Docs. Play with various tools to figure out which you like best.
4. Skills
Knowing how to use Excel and PowerPoint is a pathway to opportunities. Use YouTube first, then try other classes available on Udemy, Coursera, or eDx. Build up skills in modeling and business analysis. Communication and other soft skills should also be worked on.
5. LinkedIn
LinkedIn is very important to network in finance. Start with a professional headshot. You can connect with industry leaders and corporations you’d like to work for. Create a profile that includes your skills, showcase your financial modeling, dashboards, infographics. Be consistent and engaging.
6. Good business wear
A wardrobe of staple work clothes will go a long way for interviews and busy work days. Two to three blazers ( including tweed), a classic work bag, comfortable shoes, formal dress, and pants. The goal is to be business- professional, business-casual, or business-chic.

"You recall the night that your mom showed up with her. You and Blake stayed up past dawn, poring over pirated API docs. Her rag-doll mass was slumped on the floor as you wrote the rooting procedure.
You wonder if such memories hide behind her constellation of eyes."

gta 6 leak case
18 year-old Arion Kurtaj, who was apart of the international Lapsus$, received a life sentence for leaking gta 6, a highly anticipated game. the life sentence is not to be spent in jail, but inside a mental hospital because of extreme autism. he supposedly hacked the game using a fire stick, a tv, and his phone. personally i think it’s silly that he got a life sentence for hacking a video game when there’s people who commit actual horrific crimes that get very little jail time, but oh well.

"I have a million things to talk to you about. A million things we have to talk about. All I want in this world is you. I want to see you and talk. I want the two of us to begin everything from the beginning."

i
beg for turn of phrase:
meaning of love lost
to linguistic maze,
sculpted to tangle
hearts at play.
disaster scene,
relapse into feelings
sworn off
for worse to eventually
be forgiven.
who but me
is capable
of granting deliverance?
resolution
abandoned in a lot,
bundled up
in ragged heap;
holy waste
to hold close.
ii
yearner by nature,
i seek that which bids me
good riddance.
repellent diction surrounds,
forcing form
towards periphery.
do we burn up
or collect ourselves
in order to fall?
cohesion to the plot
intrinsically leans towards decline,
so long as it remains
in accordance with
scraps of truth received
from trickle down prosperity.

Me: I wasn’t selected for the second round of interview.
Self-love: it’s okay, don’t bash yourself, there’s more to come.
Discipline: You can devote more time to interview practice.
Perseverance: you can apply again next year.
Courage: But have you reached out to an employee who works there?
Me: Not yet
Self-confidence: Then you should, I know you can do it.
Me: Look, I have done this before for other internships, they are usually too busy for a coffee chat.
Patience: But how many times though? Things don't just happen overnight.
Consistency: Patience is right, you just need to keep doing it regularly.
Optimism: You will get that internship eventually. if not there, then somewhere even better.
Motivation: Trust me, after a few interview practices and coffee chats you will be able to land an internship.

"A million eyes couldn't see the beauty that I see when I am with you, a million fingertips couldn't touch me the way you do, a million minds couldn't fathom the depth of my love for you, a million sexy pictures couldn't capture the perfect essence of your beauty, a million vivid flowers couldn't be as colorful, a million stars could never shine as brightly, a million hours would never be enough, a million souls could never ignite my heart the way you do, a million miles could never separate us, a million galaxies couldn't swirl in my heart like the love that I feel for you, a million degrees could never be as warm as your smile, a million days couldn't go by faster than the time we spend together, a million pieces of sand couldn't fall from the sands of time like my heart does for you timelessly, a million smiles on the faces of many could never quite define the happiness that you give me just for existing.. there's a million things I could say, but none of them would do you justice."
I love you in a million different ways, each more tender than the last - eUë

The real damage is done by those millions who want to "survive." The honest men who just want to be left in peace. Those who don't want their little lives disturbed by anything bigger than themselves. Those with no sides and no causes.
Sophie Scholl
