Recently in General Blog

So I have to admit I don't update this as much as I should. I guess I don't feel I have much to say about applying to business school right now because outside of working and school I'm not doing much that directly applies to this site or my pursuits. Undergrad when you're 32 is not exactly a "fun" time, it's really just more of a chore (yeh, it's interesting, but when you've been involved in producing multi-million dollar events, writing a four-page paper is just a chore).

But I have to admit, I am cracking up at all the negative and attacking comments people are leaving recently. I would say it amazes me that people can be so malicious, but then again, I am reminded that this is the internet world. Most of the people leaving such comments are probably really just individuals who are unhappy with their lives and need to put down others (via the anonymous privacy of their bedrooms) in order to feel better about themselves.

But, please continue to leave comments, negative or not, because at the end of the day, it only helps increase exposure for the site and I get a great laugh out of bitchy whinny ones.

So now that I am here writing, figure I might as well update my progress quickly.

Spring Semester started a couple weeks ago, I'm enrolled in:

• French 21
• Economic Game Theory
• History of Europe: Since 1940
• Political Economy of Migration

Classes are going well, I think Game Theory is going to turn out to be pretty hard, mostly because I have to brush up on a lot of Calculus from years ago.

Unfortunately, I recently lost a client of seven years. They have decided to finally hire someone in house to manage and develop their websites (close to 20 of them). They were a large part of my income while up here in Davis, so that sucks, but at the end of the day, I wanted to move away from this line of work, so this is just an early kick out of the nest.

So it's been some time since my last blog. Alot has happened in the past few months and I subsequently became a very bad blogger.

I decided in June to accept the Univ. of CA, Davis offer of acceptance. I really wish I had the money to attend Columbia, but $100,000+  on my undergrad education just seemed ridiculous. So in the first week of June, my wife and I, packed our house into a 17' Uhaul and a 6' trailer and headed north to Davis, CA.

Also in June, my wife and I spent three weeks traveling through Thailand and Cambodia in Southeast Asia. It was a well deserved reward for making the shift back into school life. We had an incredible time.

I decided to enroll in two summer session classes and they started last week (August 3rd). I am taking 'Women and Development' and 'History of France since 1815', both count towards my major in International Relations. The summer term classes are only five weeks, so it's going to be a quick ride.

So here I am, back at it, working my way towards MBA'dom. Crazy to think that this time next year I will be writing essays yet again for school entrance.

So welcome back me...

Okay, so it looks like it was a combination of me, Phpmyadmin, and Movable Type that were to blame for lasts night screw up. Hopefully, everything should be working again. If you notice any issues please email them to me at info@harvardorbust.com. Thanks.
