I'm Back!

...And live to blog another term. I am happy to report that I successfully passed all my classes last term, even Financial Accounting (partial credit...it's a beautiful thing). My best class by far was Managerial Effectiveness, which I managed to effectively knock out an "SP" (superior pass).

The three week break between terms was quite nice and much needed, allowing the stress and worry to wash away and the dark bags under my eyes to gently yield to a more lively shade of pink. Did I mention I lost five pounds in the first term? My classmates look at me incedulously and ask, "how can it be?" It's a combination of stress and lack of sleep, I joke. But really what has kept me from tipping the scales is the voice of my conscience made manifest in my workout buddy Laurence, who calls me to the gym every Monday and Thursday. I must say I have never been one to mess around with "dumbells" (or dumb belles), but I have been pleased with my progress since the beginning of this year.

This term promises to be an interesting one - we have Decision models, Microeconomics, and Marketing. I think Marketing is going to be the most relevant and helpful to my biz. I actually used the 4 "P's" of marketing with one of my employees the other day and felt kinda smart for a couple seconds, until I realized he knew the 4 P's also...
