So because what I think I would like to do isn't one of the big recruiting jobs my search is going to be me searching. why i couldn't have done that while i had a nice paying job I am not sure.
yesterday Bill and I tried this restaurant in west town. Dinner was yummy but dessert was phenomenal. I had a concord grape tart made with local grapes and served with corn ice cream (odd sounding but very yummy). Today we are going to try a new BBQ place. Bill has a club meeting for a club he is considering joining. They do consulting projects for not for profits that cant afford a consultant. It gives him experience plus volunteer work and provides the NP with help they need from a smart group. The full time program doesn't have this club, but we do have a club called Net Impact that I will be joining. they help team students up with local NPs to do board work. they also help students interested in pursuing NP work after school.
yesterday I attended the club fair to see what other groups I might want to join while on campus. There are so many student orgs, but many are either cultural or professional. So many just don't apply to me. I think I will join their Women in Business group. I hope I can get involved in this group as I always wanted to get involved in WIP when I was working full time. then there are the social clubs: wine, epicurean, yoga, every sport imaginable. Unfortunately, most of these clubs cost 100-150 dollars for the two years. I just can't decide on what might be worth while.
on top of clubs and job searching, eventually I will actually have classes and that will be followed by lots of homework. There is a grade non-disclosure policy at school, but I still want to do well, as do most of my classmates. Booth curves its classes to a 3.3, which basically means for every A there is a C and for some B+ there is a B-.
Anyway that is what has been on my mind the last few days. if a brain could hyperventilate, mine has gotten close this past week. I am a worrier and this information overload has me on high alert. I hope that once I get into the swing of things I will be back to my normal self. And if I am not I expect you guys to call me out on it. Thanks in advance!
