midterms!
It's midterms for the class of 2009 this week and next week is exams for the class of 2010. That on top of interviews and job searching can be very stressful!
So here's a quick positive thought for everyone going through midterms and projects and everything right now! Besides, similar to what the graph above depicts, one of our professors discussed how too much work and stress can decline performance.
Not a lot of text since time is very precious now, but they say a picture is worth a thousand words, right? :)

return from oblivion
I'm back! For the few (or none) who missed me or wondered about where I was, well, I will make it up to you.
What have I been doing the past few months? Moving, working over the summer, worrying over the economy (and the prospects of securing a job post graduation), that sort of thing.
What's new? The general consensus from our class is that the new 2010 and one year 2009 classes are fantastic. We've also been working on getting better integrated with our Evening and Executive MBA classes, which are both also amazing.
We're about a month into the fall semester, and again, already been feeling nostalgic about it being my last year in school. Be forewarned! These bouts of sentimentality could pop up every so often this year. On the upside, it made me think that I'd better start posting again; so hello to you, to a new school year, a new class, and new posts!

In celebration of the occassion, I hope you're liking the new template! I know I am! If only the buttons on top could be customized though... I'm just too lazy to make new ones. Hover labels will have to do. :)
