Prepping for finals....

So its been awhile....Now I understand all those bloggers who feel guilty about not writing entries as frequently as they would like. Since I last wrote, mid-terms came and went. The grades on my midterms were nothing to write home about, I'm solidly surfing the curve, which means I should end up with a B+ average. We had midterms in accounting and economics. The management course did not have a midterm or final, but we submitted 3 papers during the term, one worth about 40% of the final grade, the infamous FAP (field application project). I am now studying for finals. I have two finals on Saturday. I'm looking forward to getting them over with. Then I'll be heading the the beach the following weekend for labor day and a well deserved rest with the wife and kids. Also I finally broke down and bought a laptop for school. Not sure that I really needed one since I could have used my work computer. But I didn't like the idea of storing MBA work on the laptop from work. Anyhoo, I bought an HP pavillion dv6000 with the Turion 64 bit processor, 2G RAM, 15 inch widescreen. Also bought MS-office 2007 student cheapo version. Office 2007 is really different. Has take me a while to get used to. Also picked up a new phone for work. So I'm feeling the gadget love lately...

I am feeling a little nostalgic. First semester is almost done, that means I'm 1/6 completed the the program. But also, about this time last year, I wondering where I would be studying. I was also in the middle of studying for the GMAT and wrapping up the first drafts of the MBA applications for emory and wharton. My how time flies. Carpe Diem!
