End of Spring Break, Start of Week 10
Spring Break and it's lavish/relaxing days are now at an end. I have come to realize what I love to do - Read. Not just any fiction type book, but I mean read books that are increasing my intelligence in regards to finance, business and the like. I have developed a large passion to expand my content and context and am eager to continue to learn - through technical information and also through personal relationships.
Spring break came to end with beautiful weather. I had track practice to coach on the last Thursday, relaxed and read pretty much the rest of the weekend - started my Leadership Development plan (20-40 pages!!) which is due on March 29th along with a presentation. I have knocked out 8 pages thus far to it and I can easily see it being way more than the 20 pages no doubt.
Last night: I had a track meeting with the coaches at 7pm because our practice was canceled due to rain and spoke about practices this week and the meet on Sunday.
This week = Chicago. I will be leaving for Chicago Thursday Morning at 6 AM with Beta Alpha Psi. We are going for our regional conference meeting and I just found out we aren't returning until Midnight/Monday at 12:00 AM. Therefore, I need to call and request my Sunday shift off, let the other coaches know I will not be able to make it to the meet and also have most of my leadership plan done by then : (, but it will be all worth it.
I have intramural basketball tonight at 10pm, which just stinks because class for me ends at 7:50, I will write more of my paper and get in a workout at the rec before the games begin I think, simply because I don't want to lolligag for 2 hours and waste the time. Kind of frustrated because I have been carpooling everyone in my family - the siblings for high school and even my mom because her tie-rod is destroyed - I think it may get fixed today but who knows. So the last thing I'd want to do is stay on a campus that is 20 minutes away from where I want to be. But oh well.
Leadership Last night was great. It's technically the last one where we will have a discussion. We talked about keeping power when you have a leadership role, when to give it up etc. and also about ethics and absolute ethics. There is a lot of what we talked about that touches on many points in the books that I have been reading, which just makes it all the better. I am excited and eager to finish my report and talk for a few minutes on what I am most passionate bout on the topic of leadership next Monday.
I have a stock screen report due next Tuesday, and another big paper due the follow Wednesday I believe on the 7th of April, followed by a final in Strategic Marketing on the 14th as well. I have quizzes/in-class assignments for Capital Budgeting for the last 5 weeks I would assume, until the final given during the 1st week of May. I essentially think that I will only have 1 actual "final" during that finals week. I will keep everyone posted on that.
How is everyone's semester finishing up? Getting geared up for finals? Majority of my friends are graduating in May and I can't help but feel excited for them to finish the chapter that just ended for me and for them to start on some new journey - some will be starting full time jobs in other states starting in June/July/Aug and others are starting their graduate programs in this upcoming Fall as well. I wish everyone the best of luck, please feel free to comment your thoughts and feelings below or message me! Talk to everyone soon.
