Look How Far I Come

Last week was pretty busy/hectic week for me because I have too many projects, paper and presentation all cramp up in one week. Sigh, I guess that is college. I had a Marketing presentation which took forever to be finish. I realized that having a group of 5 people is too big to collaborate and understand. We had to research about United Kingdom country study. And, I had the most challenging portion of the project, finding information on Logistics. I found out that I am pretty bad as research or maybe I did not put a lot of effort into it. But, I just could not find anything. So, whatever I just put in whatever that I could find that is relevant. For our presentation, we had to cramp our 100 pages of project into a 15 minute presentation. One of our group members had 20 pages of slides and to her...."everything relates to logistics". It took her so much of persuasion to ask her to reduce her slides. During our presentation, we were rated really well among our classmates. Thank goodness.
And then, on Friday I stayed up until 5am compiling and finishing up our paper. Some irresponsible guy did not complete his given assignment and we had to take up his slack. Very frustrating, frustrating indeed. This is latest time I ever stayed awake for a group project. Hopefully, for the effort that we put in, we can achieve a good grade. I slept at 530am and had to wake up at 730am to go for an earlier class. I had to change to an earlier class because my other Marketing class wanted to visit the distribution network of Cintas Corporation. It was really cool looking at how things go around in the network.
Lastly, on Saturday we celebrated Chris Yim and Eric Ng 21st birthday party. It was a surprise party for them but I guess they did not act surprised at all. At the party, there was jello shots (my favorite), SoCo, home-made Amaretto sour, and other variety of drinks. To sum it all up, it was good ending to week as I could take away all those tension during the week.
