Am I boring repeating I'm busy...
Yep, holy cannelloni, I just saw the date of my last post and my heart sank, boy have I been undisciplined. So let's sum up everything that happened since then:
- Recruiting kicked in at the GSB. Currently is the period where both 1st and 2nd years are recruiting, so the school is buzzing with people in suits who do cases cases cases. A big "merde" (ze french way of saying good luck, but not a very polite way) to all my friends Sean, Sandeep, Henri, Isabelle, and all the others who I forgot
- Our school got named number 1 by Business Week. Pretty nice feeling but at the end of the day now the hardest will be to keep it like that. And personnally I am not sure it changes who we are and how we do things in any way. But still...
- First round of application kicked in, so we are busy reading applications at DSAC. I mean GAs (Graduate Assistants) are busy doing it, as a DSAC Co-chair I am kept as a backup. Would love to read though, the quality level of essays is very high. Sometimes I wonder: "If I applied now, would I get in?". The applicants push every year the boundaries of quality, sometimes I doubt I would have gotten in... But who knows, so let's take that thought away.
- Fall preview went well. I always enjoy meeting prospective students, and imagining them here and working with them. It prepares some really nice moments.
- Yesterday midterm for "Managing in organizations" and tomorrow midterm in "Competitive Strategy"
- Prof. Bandyopadyay hired me as his Teaching Assistant in Investments. An honor, truly. A fntastic chance, but a nice workload. I never worked on a course material that much, even when I took his class. It is one thing to understand the material, it is another to understand it enough to explain some of it and explain exercises. However the 20 guys who come regularly to my sessions are really good and hard working so it makes the exchange really enjoyable, and what a presentation experience!!! 3 hours of presentation every week...
Well that's pretty much it until now. Let's go back to work!

All I ask is for typed up notes for that class. That's all I ask.
He's a great prof and it's a great class. But the hand written notes has to be converted.
Now you have that responsibility to stop years of madness and restore order.
