Michael Werneburg, MSc

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2014.10.27

I got a 79% on my dissertation, which I'm told is pretty good for the UK. Three years ago I started with a marketing class, then the project mgmt certification, then the internal audit designation, which covered accounting, "managerial accounting", economics, finance, etc. The dissertation was a synthesis of strategy, execution, and risk. I'm done - for now.

Some added bonuses today - the R&D grant we applied for at work was finally approved, and I got to see the lift bridge on Cherry street in action. A good day.

Illusions commend themselves to us because they save us pain and allow us to enjoy pleasure instead. We must therefore accept it without complaint when they sometimes collide with a bit of reality against which they are dashed to pieces.

—Sigmund Freud
