It is not about time anymore.I did have the time to blog and did start writing posts but somehow couldnt finish them. I hated my writing 5 lines down the posts.It has been four months now and the blog is almost dead.My time management hasnt improved a bit and I am still kind of struggling to get anything done.By the way , the results did come and they were pretty average. I am happy considering that I know my potential well :)). This term is similar and different in a lot of in ways to term1. Different because, there are less numbers to crunch and there are more qualitative subjects meaning you are not lost in the class even if you havent prepared or know the topic well.Similar in the way that,though it is not as rigorous as the previous term, the amount of readings psyche you out. I am not even sure how many HBR articles i have read in this past month.There are many term papers to be written and a walk about to be done. oh , if you dont know what a walk about is, this is what Prof.Ricky Lim said about it
"In the MM and MBA we make students do a “walkabout.” This is based on the Australian aborigine custom of sending young men into the bush, to fend for themselves. In the AIM version we send students out on a mission of self-discovery. They stay away for a few weeks on projects of their choice—the professor should not interfere in this choice, nor are there pushed to do a corporate internship. Instead we ask students do something risky, very challenging, something they have not done before. The experience must be transformational. Students can build a well for a poor Filipino village, or start a reading library for a local community; one student decided to take dancing lessons, not having the experience in his entire life: he became quite a competent tango dancer! The lessons learned are not at all textbook, but in Mintzbergian fashion, the student learns from visceral experience, which makes learning sticky and permanent."
As expected I am still figuring out what to do :))
