– I’m the Volunteer Coordinator for this weekend’s C4C Weekend and I can’t seem to get all of the volunteer slots filled (If any MBA1’s are reading this, y’all need to step up BIGTIME)
– I picked up my graduating loan borrowers packet today and saw how much I will owe in loans when I graduate (I knew that I was borrowing a lot, but seeing the single figure with it all added up damn near made me pass out…this MBA better be worth it 🙂 )
– I had to hit the gas station and, since gas is over $3/gallon out here, I had to pay $52 to get a fill-up
So, I’m buggin’ out because of all of this and then I check my email, which has a message in it from the people at ClearAdmit. It looks like I was the #1 ranked Student Blogger in their 2005-2006 Best of Blogging competition. Now, I can’t stop grinning. I’ve got to give a big shout out to all the expert judges and other bloggers who put in votes for me. As I’ve said before, I never started this blog expecting to get an award, but it’s nice to know that people are reading it and like what I’m putting up here.

It’s going to be so weird when I graduate and don’t have anymore business school stuff to write about on here anymore.


your honest posts have always been a great source of info, and that’s why so many of us voted for you. enjoy the nano !
Thanks for the shout out, FG. And, congrats on making it into the top 3 on the applicant side 🙂

your blog (and Mbwana’s) had kept me very pumped up about stanford during the app process. And now having made it in, guess its gonna be a shame if I dont get to meet ya next year!
cheers on the award…

Ash,
Congratulations on being accepted at the GSB. If you choose to come hre, you’re going to have a ball. Hopefully, I’ll be able to catch up with you during one of the many visits I’ll make next year…it’s hard to tear myself away from this place.
