Mid-Terms, SkIESE
My 3 readers will have hopefully noticed the lack of posts on this blog of late.
Reason 1: Mid-terms.
I don't believe it was about 3 posts ago that I mentioned the end of term 1, and here I am blogging about the mid-terms already. Anyone can tell you that four papers spread over 2 days is not a good idea. At the end of the day, I was ready to punch someone in the face. Thankfully a freak accident just before the Operations Management exam on day 2 (that I will desist from mentioning as I'm unaware of the age of some of my readers - mail me about this!) had me in splits for the rest of the day.
Reason 2: SkIESE.
As has been the tradition here at IESE, some 200 of us first and second years headed to Andorra for the annual ski trip, aptly called SkIESE. Now snow or no snow, when 200 people head out to 1 place, you know you're gonna have fun. Thankfully for us, it snowed, so all the ski enthusiasts got what they were praying for.
Unfortunately, some beginners (such as yours truly) did more falling than skiing - I had no clue that there were so many ways to fall, and I'm happy to have gotten away with jelly legs, a sore back, and what looks suspiciously like a cracked thumb. Others may not have been as lucky. Needless to say, pics will follow.
