Today I attended the naming ceremony for the Michael G. Foster School of Business. This name will be on my diploma when I graduate in June.

Right now I’m in the library with some very wet feet and a cup of hot tea. It is raining so hard today. It rains almost everyday but it’s usually not this bad. Maybe we’re in line to beat our rainiest month ever (November 06).

The last few weeks have been fun and busy. I drove a van full of people to Woodinville on 10/6 for the annual wine tasting tour. I didn’t get to taste any wine but that’s okay. I was still recovering from the MBA party the night before. It was fun but I was so glad to get home that night and just relax.

Last weekend Danny and I went to Beaverton to hang out with friends. Although there isn’t a ton to do in Beaverton we were fine. It’s a very nice place and we usually end up just hanging out at our friends’ place. I got a lot of work done and still had time to watch Blades of Glory.kk

Tomorrow is going to be tough but very cool. I’m the MBA speaker at this year’s annual scholarship breakfast. I love public speaking but I’ve never spoken in front of 400 people before. At least I’m somewhat prepared. I’m very honored that they asked me to do it. After the speech, I’m heading to Amazon where I’m interviewing one of my classmate’s friends for a research project. Then, I have a 45 minute job interview on campus, a meeting with my career counselor, class from 3:30-5:30, a BizComm club welcome happy hour and then a business school mentor reception on campus. The next morning I’m driving to Bellevue at 6:15 to take notes for a monthly executive round table discussion.

Then I turn 30! Whoohoo!

Life, is that you? It’s been so long since we’ve seen one another that I almost forgot what you looked like.

Direct Marketing is over and, even though it totally kicked my butt at times, it was worth it. I loved the class and I recommend it to everyone. The teacher is tough and sometimes the assignments were ridiculously complicated but I learned so so much.

Now that DM is over I can focus on my two other electives and my part-time research project. My classes are going well so far and I’ve been busy finishing up MBA club stuff.

The next few weekends should be fun: wine tasting in Woodinville this weekend, trip to Portland the next, and then tailgating at the husky game for my big three oh.
