Great spring break, back to class

Well, my spring break was wonderful- relaxing and busy. On the organization front- I kept things relatively neat over the break. There was only 1 time where things got out of control in the hotel room, but I quickly took care of it.

The big news of the week is that Kelly my coaching partner got a job offer!!!!!!

Congrats to Kelly, I know she worked hard and had to present in front of a group of tough interviewers in order to get the offer.

This week has been frenetic working on school projects especially my EPE business plan. This is a perfect example of an opportunity gained by letting someone explain what I originally thought was a bad idea:

When we started, one of my group members had an idea that I thought was pretty bad. Rather than express my dislike of his idea, I let it develop. We did our initial pitch of the business and it went really well. The people that we met with really liked the idea. So reserving my negative opinion actually paid off. Moving forward we may actually try to start the business that we are creating for the school project.

Overall, it has been an exciting two weeks.
