From the halls of the SDSU library
So studying continues... I am taking my break between class and studying right now to contribute to the blog since it's been a while. My midterms begin in less than two weeks so I am really starting to concentrate on applying the concepts and formulas that I have been reading about for the past few weeks. Unfortunately it takes a lot more time to do practice problems than it does to just read about it so I'll be spending more time here in the library which has the significant lack of a bed that tempts me to take a nap. Luckily the materials for my classes isn't particularly difficult, it is just a matter of practicing it and learning where to apply the specific concepts.
I took a brief break from studying on Monday for some spontaneity. My friend Matthew was down in Irvine for some work training so on Monday afternoon Michelle and I decided to trek up there to meet him for dinner. We had some delicious food at the Cheesecake Factory at the Spectrum and then decided to drive up a few exits and go to Disneyland. We were aiming to go on the Toy Story ride a few times but unfortunately Disneyland is currently in transition to Halloween decorations so CA Adventure closed at 6 and we didn't get there until 7. So we had about 40 minutes to enjoy the Disneyland park before it closed at 8. We ended up only being able to go on one ride - Pirates - and do a little sweets shopping but it was still worth it. After Disneyland we decided to be a little more impetuous and head over to Long Beach to visit Michelle's sister who had just moved up there that day. It was fun to see her and her husband even if it was just to watch a little Dancing with the Stars before we had to head back. Spontaneity is definitely fun - I just have to make sure I only do it in doses so the other important stuff gets done!
Work is still working out well. I only go in on Thursdays and do a bit from home during the week so I can really concentrate on schoolwork. They are sending me to a one-day conference in Coronado in a few weeks to learn more about email marketing so that should be beneficial to me since I do that with work and it is part of what I am studying.
Anyway, that's about it. I had better get some head way on these problems. I am requesting more pics of the babes on the blog, please - specifically the ones I have not yet met - Noah, McKenzie, Beck and Sawyer. :)
You sound busy Marnes. I think you're smart using the library to keep away from the temptation of the bed. However, I found that leaning forward in the cubicles at BYU did me just fine...into the sleep mode that is. So, be careful to not get into that routine.
Good luck with your studies and dig in for the MBA.
