• a student, yet once again

   

  STANFORD, CALIFORNIA | SCHWAB EAST SIDE, 1F è

  

  at 8 ante monday morning, the stanford mba class of 2009 kicks of its first ever day of class.  that means today, or what remains of today, is officially my final day of summer.  how ridiculous is that.

  it’s been quite the summer.  travels, diseases, photos, hotels, budget airlines, monastic communities, riverside bars, and the like.

  now, it’s back to books, exams, and appointments upon appointments.

  i’d say things are settling quite well here.  i’ve been fortunate enough to meet some fantastic folks who are beginning to round out my circle of friends.  they all hail from interesting backgrounds and carry such storied pasts.  and they’re sweet, funny, and most importantly of all, down to earth.  last night, i took the group on a tour of the castro after a tapas-filled dinner at cha cha cha in the mission.  it was great.  dinner and dancing, with folks i’ll see for the next two years.

  
  
  
  

  tomorrow, an action-packed schedule.  program overview 8-930.  accounting 945-1115.  global context of management 1130-1.  outward bound reunion lunch 1-2.  managing groups and teams 2-5.  mandatory schwab meeting 6-7.  first day of class bbq 7-9.

  and already, a ridiculous sum of articles and texts to read, a final next week to prepare for, and thousands of memories to document.  it’s moving so fast, all of a sudden and suddenly again.  so, so fast.

  here we go.
