It's been a while...

As you may have (or may have not) noticed, it's been a considerably long time since I last wrote on my blog. This semester has been one of the busiest semesters I've had in a long long time. Here's some things that happened since I last posted:

-Took a job as an accounting tutor and Grad Assistant (for summer/fall)
-Completed a MASSIVE marketing analysis, which made me realize that I really hate marketing :O)
-Tons of exams/papers that have completely consumed my life
-Went to physical therapy for my knee problem, which is MUCH better now!

What I have due between now and the end of school (5 weeks, I think?), which means I probably won't be posting much:

-Two exams this week (both tomorrow) in accounting and Data Analysis
-Two papers due next week (accounting and law)
-A Marketing Plan
-A large group paper in Law
-A "technology in marketing" paper
-Another accounting paper
-A large-scale data case analysis
-A 10 minute presentation in Marketing
-A 20 minute presentation in Law
-And finals in Law, Data, and Accounting

YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And some other news:

My marketing partner and I completed a marketing analysis for the Chicago Chamber Musicians, which is a chamber ensemble made up musicians from the Chicago Symphony (and some local college profs). We all have to complete an internship in order to fulfill the requirements for graduation, so I asked if CCM would be willing to take me on this summer as an intern and they said YES!

AND...I have just recently (yesterday) taken a position as a clerk/assistant to the manager in the telefunding/fundraising department at the Chicago Symphony Orchestra! Despite having to give up my tutoring position (and possibly my grad assistantship), this is a HUGE opportunity to get my foot in the door at an internationally renowned symphony. Building these connections will not ensure that I will get a job at the CSO, but it certainly helps!

OK...off I must go. I need to write my law paper (about the movie "The People vs. Larry Flynt"). We're going back to Columbus for the weekend, so I want to make sure that I have all of my work done before we leave. Oh, and I guess I have to study for two exams tomorrow. Ha.

Take care and have a good month, if this is the last time that I post for awhile :O)
