Everytime I think the next term is going to give me more breathing space, suddenly I feel a constriction around my neck and it tightens as if to warn me of a shorter term with almost the same workload ....alas, when will my dreams come true, when will I have a spring break where I do not have worry about selecting projects and forming groups, when will I have an Easter break when I do not have prepare for my MIBS presentation ...when, when, when! Probably a bit melodramatic :) but then that is the way life has been!
During the spring break, we (Sheetal and I) visited the Roy's in Northampton and P2 in London! Sheetal's first visit to the capital and her first walk along the Thames!
Last week we (Niall, Marco and I) came back from the Graduate Business Conference in Copenhagen, a school sponsored trip! Amazing experience, so many different schools participating, lectures and workshops all through the day and partying through the night! Feel like a dead duck being back in school!
To add some excitement to this term, we have a live project - a consulting assignment of sorts or a mini IB project if you were to say! Our team (Vasanthi, Javier, Paul, Shameer, Obinna and I) is doing a really interesting assignment under the Entrepreneurship Project category for a small food company based in Yorkshire! It requires us to apply all that we have learnt from various courses including Financial Accounting, Marketing, Operations Management, Strategy and PMO. Hope we can be of some good use in helping them!
CMS recently organised a successful careers fair (I missed it as I was in Copenhagen) and feedback that I hear from the class was pretty good. A very good mix of companies from the biggies (e.g. Ernst and Young Business Advisory Services) to much smaller recruitment agencies.
I hoovered and tidied the entire apartment today :) made some good use of the Easter break! Dozing off for now.
Cheers
