  STANFORD, CALIFORNIA | SCHWAB RESIDENTIAL CENTER, 1F è

  1249 — go!

  tomorrow is my last final, in finance.  the past few weeks have been insane.  jobs, rejections, papers, friends, planning, social issues, hives, loves, inadequacies, excitements, anticipations, worry, fatigue, insanities.

  this first quarter has been a mix of ups and downs, a chapter of extreme extremes.  never before in my life have i lived with such extremities.  never.

  tomorrow is the last day of the fall quarter.  two days later i fly to london.  two days after that, accra.  for a week i’ll be traveling in probably the most unsafe country i’ve ever set foot on — togo.  and i don’t speak french.

  i ran out of money today.  almost $100 in late and returned check fees.  the opportunity costs of an MBA.

  i return from africa on january 7, at 1030pm, the day before school resumes.  that first weekend is my birthday.  the next weekend is whistler.  and in februrary i fly virgin america for the first time, to las vegas.

  i’m on a roller coaster and there’s no time to get off!

  1252!
