Step up time :-)

Today's Country Economics Class was by Prof. Gayle, was actually about analysis of economics. Starting with a sheet with ten years data of GDP, Unemployment, debt, etc economics metrics, we discussed many theoretical concepts and saw them at work for analysis of U.S. economy, we figured out what was done differently from theory and why and also how it affected the economy in future years.
We got insights about the balance between the "Savers" and "Spenders" as nations in the global economy and importance of role changing in this context. And then, when it all came together, we could understand how U.S. currency changing or not changing makes so much impact on global economy and also why countries like Greece went into downward spiral and are struggling to move upwards. Amazing class of Country Economics Analysis today.

And yes, now that we have almost gotten the WISP paper completed, today I met with Prof Alvaro and Manan to discuss the plan ahead. In the hour long meeting this evening, we chalked out a lot of details, regarding the plan of action and the milestones going forward.

Tonight, I also got together with Sophie, Hanna and Carla and we cooked some Indian food at Sophie's place. it was a fun evening today.

Waiting for Friday to get over now, as thanks to all the work this week and also the cold and running nose that I have got for past two days, I just want to have some rest.

And to sum it all up for today, it was a day when the economics class and my fellowship work led to a step up :)
