Hitting the Books Once Again

Today was my first day back at school and I have ZERO desire to do homework. I loved seeing all of my friends back on campus. It was kind of ridiculous how loud we all were along with the hugging and laughing, etc. but it was wonderful at the same time. It is amazing how close you can become with a group of people in just a few short months.

I did spend my break between classes hanging out in the MBA lounge for the first time ever and I loved it. I knew every single person in the lounge and it was fun to just chat with them. Last year I avoided the lounge - it was full of people I didn't know who stared at me like I was an alien anytime I went in there. What a difference a few months makes!

I am officially crazy and have decided to take 19.5 credits, including one of the most challenging and time consuming classes offered in the MBA program - Advanced Corporate Finance - affectionately referred to as "The Heaton Beatin" I am wondering what on earth I have done and if I REALLY want to do this. Mostly I am hoping that motivation will kick in soon and I will be able to focus and get stuff done.

Wish me luck!
