Yes! We didn’t have to present our project. We were 9 groups total and only 4 had to present so the odds were good to begin with. And you could tell that we weren’t the only group that had thought about the odds. One of the groups that were forced to present hadn’t even done [...]

19:27 THURSDAY

YES! My group and I have FINALLY finished our third and LAST project (company valuation) for this course. We’ve basically been living in the computer lounge at uni for the last week meaning a lot of salad take-aways for lunch. BUT, not anymore! Now that we’re done with the company valuation I finally have the [...]

21:44 MONDAY

Today during our last exercise in Finance our teacher tried to bribe us with candy. Basically if we asked him a question, ANY question regarding the exercise he would throw some candy in the air for us to catch. Hahah, loves it.
Oh and, did I mention this is my THIRD year at UNI?
XOXO

Yo blog!
Today I had double lectures in Statistics. Our original teacher is…, I don’t know where she is but she’s gone and therefore we had a substitute teacher. Okay I don’t know what is UP with the institution for Statistics and weird teachers this semester. First of all, let’s start with the actual lecture. I [...]

19:17 MONDAY

Whoops.
I didn’t go to bed until around 7AM yesterday which was a great idea at the time but turned out to be rather ingenious when I overslept & forgot our group meeting. Apparently my group was going to meet up at 12.30PM so that we could go over the presentation a couple of times before [...]

18:39 “OK WEIRDOOO”

Today I attended my first seminar in Statistics for Business & Economics and I must say it’s run by one of the weirdest university teachers I’ve ever met. I don’t really know how to describe it really. Actually I don’t think there even is a way of describing it so I’m just going to let [...]

Aula Magna, where I spent the two first hours of my morning:

You better take a good look because you won’t be witnessing this vision again.
… until late August / early September when school starts again. Heh.
One more paper that’s due June 3 and then we’re done for the semester! WEEEEEEEI!

I had 2 lectures at uni today. 1 more sensemaking than the other. Either way, we’re supposed to break this case on some russian company that offers a product called New Siberian Pelmeny. Won’t go into any details (not that I can’t, I just don’t want to) but basically this pelmeny is all ‘yum yum’ [...]

On Saturday we met up at the Student palace to continue working with our marketing plan. Here’s an extract of the process:
G: Expandera i USA? Tror du verkligen amerikanska befolkningen kan konsumera mer vodka?
M: Men det föds ju nya alkoholister varje dag!
G: Vad är det med dig och synonymer idag? ”Det var great, det [...]

01.38 QUOTE OF THE DAY

Before the almost-puke-fest at McDonald’s began, Team Green went to uni to listen to different presentations about our alternate educational futures. Seeing the different teachers at each others throats, trying to convince us why we should choose THEIR subjects for continued studies in economics was hilarious. Another thing that was hilarious was the different levels [...]

We’ve only been in school for 1 day since the easter break and we’ve already managed to get on national TV.

22.50 SUNDAY

Well.
Since bonding with the coursebook at home went directly to hell I figured going to the library and watching other students study would motivate me to bond with Hatch.
Mission… not accomplished:

Motivating setting, no?

I managed to get things done anyway.

Impressive, no?
XOXO

Today was the second and final day of our theme conferences in Organisation Theory. All of the presentations I went to were above average but some of the others had accidentally attended a presentation of which the group members neither stayed on topic nor knew what on earth they were on about. But then, it’s [...]

21:10 MONDAY

Today was my longest day in uni since I started back in fall ‘07.
And the funny thing is, we didn’t even have any lessons.
No, today between the lovely hours 7:30-16:00 we were welcoming, guideing and touring the new students.
During the first shift my brain sort of collapsed and took a break from reality – which [...]

PEANUT BUTTER EXAM TIME.

The exam hall.
So, that was my view today between 18:00 – 22:00.
As for how it went…
It went fabulous!
Almost as fabulous as Statistics.
The best part is that we’re off until Monday when our 4th term begins.
That’s 5 whole days. FIVE DAYS.
I’m not entirely sure how the rest of the week is going to [...]
