First Day of Class

This is my last first day of class ever. Kind of sad but happy at the same time. I had an awesome break, although I didn't get half of what i needed to get done.

And I got a new bike so i can ride the triathlon better. I'm really excited about it! Here it is:

Random thought

So after being stuck up late at night working on a project i began to read blogs. And I read a friend's blog about someone who passed away who they knew who was on drugs. It made me think that life is really funny (probably not the right word) in some ways. We never know what someone is hiding. No matter how well we think I know someone, I'm always amazed by the new things i learn about them. It is so interesting how you can never really know someone. These are the things I think about when I have spent all day working on homework...

A request

So I have a ton of work to do on my DECS and Integration project. Of course that means that everything else is getting done instead. I updated the wedding webpage, and worked on other random things today. And then of course I am updating my blog right now. I went to Barnes and Nobles and got some new books to read over break. I decided i needed classics so I got A Prayer for Owen Meany, Count of Monte Cristo, and Les Miserables. I also looked at my music collection and realized I am getting sick of my songs. So I have two requests:
1) Let me know what songs/albums you think (old or new) my music collection must have.
2) Let me know if you think of any great books I should read over break.

How quickly time flies

I can't believe I haven't updated in a month! So crazy how quickly time flies. I haven't really been up to too much lately. It is now finals time, and so weird to think I am almost 85% done with my MBA. I think I will have mixed feelings when I leave. I will be excited to be done with school, the classes are beginning to wear me down. And it will be nice to be back in Minnesota with everyone. But I will also miss my friends here. In the past few months I have really began to learn who my friends are here and I feel like I am hitting my stride, of course right as I get ready to leave. But i can't lie, it will be nice to not do a long distance relationship anymore. So weird to think how many things will change in the next six months!
Right now I am trying hard to get things done before i go to Minneapolis. I am totally done with one class, taking a final in another tomorrow (I am a little apprehensive about it), and then i have a project due for a third one. But we also have our big integration project and I am trying to get it done before i leave Evanston on Tuesday for Michigan.
I'm excited to go to Michigan and do all the fun wedding planning stuff. I get to pick out the cake, flowers, and all the fun details. My mom also brought back the sari for me to wear at the rehearsal dinner and the invites from india, and I'm really excited to see them. I think we are going to send out our invites really early so that we can try to plan events and such for out of town guests. I'm also really excited for all my friends to meet each other!
On other exciting news, we booked our tickets for our honeymoon! We are going to Italy, and I really can't wait. I'm going to also plan the wedding over break. There are so many things going on for me to be excited about, especially my trip to MInneapolis where i get to make turkey dinner, hang out with everyone and maybe stop by the store where i bought my dress to see the sample again since i am beginning to forget what it looks like!
