Learning Team(work)
by Hella ~ March 21st, 2005After spending many hours (7+) yesterday preparing for today’s classes, I knew it would be a long day, particularly since I didn’t get to bed until after 3am and I got up around 7am. But today is finally over, capped off by two marathon 3 hour sessions. The first of which started at 3pm with [...]
Fork Restaurant
by Hella ~ March 16th, 2005Just a quick review of last night’s dinner at Fork. It was a birthday dinner and about 14-16 people were at the table at any given time. The staff was very accomodating for such a large (and loud!) party. We all had a great time and it was enhanced by the delicious food (well, two [...]
Ahead but Behind
by Hella ~ March 16th, 2005I’ve taken a really optimistic and proactive approach to Q4. I want to be on top of all of my work and so far, I’ve done ok. Well, except for getting to class on time. It seems that on the first day of Marketing Strategy (as a result of running a little random computer program) [...]
Great DGSAC Meeting
by Hella ~ March 15th, 2005This afternoon’s DGSAC meeting was my favorite of the year. We had a very interesting presentation from the project team followed by an engaging discussion about the learning environment here at Wharton. Before today’s meeting, I’d been polling fellow students on possible inputs for today’s discussion and many were covered by my classmates on the [...]
Gripes About Faculty
by Hella ~ March 15th, 2005Ok, I’m fed up with this crap. I still have not received my grade for BPUB 621. News Flash: Quarter 3 is over. What I’m really annoyed with is that I haven’t even gotten my MIDTERM back from Feb 9. I blame no one but the professor who should have the decency to get these [...]

Q4 Eve
by Hella ~ March 13th, 2005We’re on the eve of the last quarter of the first year and I must say that I’m ready to get this over with. I did not enjoy the last quarter’s core classes at all (though Managerial Accouting was taught quite well). For this quarter, I’m picking up an additional two courses for a total [...]
Ariana Restaurant
by Hella ~ March 11th, 2005Today for lunch I journeyed down to Old City to see what new places I could find. I’d seen several Middle Eastern restaurants along Chestnut so I ventured that way after walking along Market to 2nd. Right past a Belgian place called Eulogy (which looks good as well) is a very authentic and small place [...]
Funny Yields?
by Hella ~ March 9th, 2005Something interesting was pointed out to me about the whole ApplyYourself thing.
So most of the time, people will apply to similar sets of schools. With MIT now joining HBS in their decision to flat out deny admission to anyone who peeked, will these “unethical” few end up at a school not affected by this situation [...]
Walking for Breton Crepes
by Hella ~ March 6th, 2005When I finally got around to getting out this morning, the weather was rather yucky. There was a light wet snow coming down. But that didn’t stop me from heading out down Rue Sherbrooke towards a new neighborhood I hadn’t yet seen in Montreal. After reviewing several picks on montrealfood.com, I found a little place [...]
