Starting classes
Classes have finally started. The hours are pretty insane – classes this Quarter go from 9.45pm all the way till 5.30am in the morning. I have been trying to adjust my body clock to start later in the day so that I can stay awake to participate meaningfully in classes. Not bad so far for the Strategy class that just ended.
I’m pretty stoked to be reading so much and learning again. Spent the weekend planning the courses I was going to take in the year and realised that one year was just too short to study everything I want to!
Conversations
This little MBA adventure of mine stirred up some interesting conversations with people about their personal and career experiences and how they saw the future. They were also nice enough to allow me to bounce off my thoughts about what I think I would want to do in the future. Talking through things definitely gave me more clarity about what I wanted and what I might be good at.
I am truly thankful for the meaningful relationships that I have built up in different spheres of life over the years and for such great willingness to just chat and share. This is definitely something I hope to pass on to others as well. We all have the power to impact those around us and change their world for good!
Finally, a visa interview!
I managed to make an appointment in late July. Hopefully all goes well, and the only remaining hurdle would be the coronavirus situation in the US. Fingers crossed!
