Quarter of my MBA: done!

Success of converting friends into mustache-toting Movember supporters: absolute!

Bacon chocolate: a must!

I’m not going to sit here and pretend that I had oh-so-many opportunities to party during my last half of the first semester.  It’s just not true.  The second half has been filled with graduate club elections (Co-President of OUTsource and VP of Women in Business Leadership Conference 2011… just to toot my own horn ), finishing up MBA+ projects including presenting at Adobe headquarters on Monday, marketing projects, recruiting, and somehow finding enough time to study for finals.

But in between the hectic was supremely fun. We raised money for prostate cancer awareness during Movember by selling fake mustaches. Tempura ice cream at Crave (on Guadalupe and 21st) is the perfect pre-final meal. There was the inevitable making of bacon chocolate (not pictured below for your protection), and lots of late night dinners including the deliciousness that is potato soup @ IHOP. As you can read, food in Austin is clearly not a scarcity, and after four days of straight finals, we had some mandatory partying at Abel’s on the Lake and later at Donn’s Depot.  All in all, it’s been a crazy, yummy, friend-making, friend-bonding, fiendishly busy and wild semester. I can’t wait to do it again in January.

Now, I wish everyone an amazing holiday and new year. I’m going to park my behind at a beach somewhere and grab some well-deserved rest.  Cheers!~

What do you do when you need a study break? Mustaches + camera.

How many minutes does it take for MBA students to eat Tempura ice cream? 5 students… about a minute and a half.
