Making history... one application season at at time.

What a day

1 ding, 2 hours of sleep and 3 times the workload! I'm exhausted. The reality of this morning's ding dong has set in. I wonder if the R2 timing of my application impacted the competitiveness of my candidacy?

I wanted to clarify a comment in my earlier post -- some folks at work know about my MBA aspirations, but they are peer-level, trusted friends as well as my two recommenders. I think my 'cat out of the bag' comment painted a more bleak picture. Rather, I simply wasn't looking forward to swallowing my pride and letting friends know that ding #2 had arrived.

Wow, so I did NOT expect to be in quite this position at this point in the game, but I still feel great about Haas, a program that I consider an excellent fit. Thanks to everyone for your encouraging comments... I hope to have some good news to share with you all soon.

P.S. Brownoski -- I'm gonna sweep your March Madness pool ;)

Tough....and tougher..that's what this is making us...and remember, great business leaders are made of steel, arent they. you thwart advertisities, and wait for those rare opportunities, one of which hopefully will land in your kitty on Monday.

Wish you a sincere "All the best"

I had a Maya burrito today and thought of you. We still gotta do that.

Man my sleep schedule is all whacked b/c of that Wharton Chat. I really can't wait until you get into Haas so we can start celebrating..

Enjoy being #1 today because I'm a stretch-runner and break late!

Keep the faith and you will have great news soon, either with these schools or about your life otherwise, coz life is but what you make it. Fret, alright, but for some little time, and then get up, start walking again and let the world see oyur strength. Best
