I've taken a final 40-question practice quiz ahead of tomorrow's CIA exam #1. Got 90%, which I think is in part due to having seen many of the questions before.

Really not too sure how this exam will go. But then I never have been good with predicting exams.

rand()m quote

It has always seemed strange to me...The things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success. And while men admire the quality of the first they love the produce of the second.

—John Steinbeck, Cannery Row
