It keeps going and going and going...

Another day of class, an afternoon of informational interviews, an evening of slam sessions (with the director of GCS no less) and elections. Just another day at Kelley, sure doesn't feel like the core is winding down at all.

Tomorrow is a day jam packed with CMA activities. Breakfast with General Mills, case question prep with Scotts, and who knows what else. Let the Marketing begin!

Today in a nutshell:

• Class from 8:15 - 12:30
• Lunch of lukewarm tomato soup from the cafe downstairs
• Another session of accounting from 1:00-2:00
• Get home at 3:30
• Have a snack while watching Martha Stewart and reading Smartbrief
• Research the company for my Slam Session
• Read for Quant
• Have a Lean Cuisine at my desk while reading more Quant at 6:00
• Head to my Slam Session at 7:00
• Slam Session 7:30-8:30
• Grocery Shopping 8:45-9:20
• Read for Quant while having some snacks 9:30-10:00
• Research internship opportunities 10:00-present

Don’t feel like I got anything done either! Now its time to hit the sack and try to get a little more sleep after I get in a few more pages of Quant.

Yes, I know I have been MIA, and no, I haven’t died. But after 4 weeks of midterms, a girl just needs a break! So week 7 ended with a quant assignment, a marketing memo and an accounting ROE assignment. Then we had to turn in 19 pages of our take home midterm for finance so we could take the 7 question in class portion.

Afterwards I was just dead. Charlton and I headed to Chick-fil-a and then headed back to Kelley for an interview info session (with awesome pizza from Aver’s, which I ate anyway can we say stressed!?) Then we headed to interview slam sessions. I was pretty nervous as I wasn’t really prepared and the second year I was paired with used to work where I hope to be, and I didn’t want to be a total goof ball. It went really well so ended the afternoon on a high note.

Then it was back to the apartment so I could make some calls to get some prospectives to come check out Kelley Women’s Weekend. Then I applied for an internship, and then it was time for the fun to begin!

I almost feel like cutting that one out and taping it to my finance midterm tomorrow. Although I am not sure how my finance professor would feel about it, even if it covers most of what we have learned in class *wink wink*

The last few days have been a rough for me, got a bunch of exams back and none of them were up to my standards. Pretty depressing, and makes it hard to be motivated for the next assignment or exam. But as my friend would say “keep swimming, keep swimming” (although she got it from Dory)

Tomorrow is a full day of midterms and interview slam sessions, then cupcakes and our homecoming dance. The best part? No class next week! Just company visits and a bus ride around the Midwest with 60 of my classmates. Fun times are just up ahead, man I wish it were 3 PM tomorrow already.
