Preparations Are Underway

Ok, I'll admit it.

As I write this, I'm procrastinating.  I have a marketing final in about 4 hours.  I should be reviewing; but I suppose if I haven't grasped it yet, there's not much hope for me in the next 244 minutes.

243.

The last 2 weeks have been ridiculously busy.  Finalizing the details of the internship for credit application and registration has been enough work and running around to equal the effort of a class all by itself.  Signatures to gather, curriculum and "learning objectives" to write up, finalizing travel arrangements and getting visa paperwork started.  Just a bunch to keep track of.  And on top of that my group for the Study Tour (in September) had a preliminary presentation/proposal due that had the requisite group meetings, discussion and other riff-raff that go along with working with 3 other people on a project.  Don't get me wrong, I like my group and we're going to do well working together, I'm just not a fan of group projects as a whole.

Oh yeah and did I mention its the end of the quarter and finals week has been looming?  Thankfully the final "deliverable" (business lingo; kill me now!) for my Entrepreneurship course was due yesterday.  One of three weights off my shoulders.  Next up, there's a take-home, open-book Marketing Management final tonight at 5ish until I can get it done.  Shouldn't be terrible, but I'm reasonably confident my Prof's goal for the quarter was to stand up in front of the class and talk as much as he could without giving us a single bit of wisdom.  Oh, and my Prof's name is Chauncey.  No joke.  Finally, there's a Managerial Economics final on Thursday, thankfully I have 48 hours between finals to study for it, cause its definitely gonna be a hard one.

And if that wasn't enough, I'm tasked with packing for 3 months away from home during all of the in between.  For those of you counting, that's two totally different climates, working and casual wardrobes and only 2 suitcases to stuff it all into.  Needless to say the nerves are a little frazzled.  Thursday night at 8pm is going to be a welcome relief.  But I've gotta get there first.  One step at a time.  I suppose that's enough procrastinating.  Thanks for reading my first brain dump.
