Getting Old!

Two things happened recently that really drove home the fact that I'll be 30 soon. First is that I have to renew my passport. I can't believe it's already been nine years since my study abroad semester in Rome! Where has the time gone? I've thought about going back multiple times but I haven't gotten around to it, which makes me a little sad. There have been other fantastic trips though, so I can't beat myself up about it too much. But seriously... nine years. Yikes.

Second is that songs from my undergrad years qualify for "old-school jams" weekend on the radio. I am officially "old-school."

Back to School

I've mostly moved back in, classes have started, and I officially have no life again. That's not completely accurate. More accurate is: I officially have no life outside of the MBA program again. I'm a little nervous for this semester - I think it's going to be brutal time-wise. I estimate 4 weeks before the "I hate scheduling team meetings" post arrives. This semester there are 4 required classes and one elective. Originally I'd signed up for 2 electives but the professor doesn't allow absences (not ideal for interview season), has a firm Dec 22 exam date (a Saturday? No thank you), and worst of all a seating chart. I'm well past the age tolerance for seating charts unless it's my cubicle or office. So I dropped it. Too bad too, I the content would have been interesting.
