Cambridge Mass.... Here I come!
.... ok so it's just for a visit.... I'll just be in the neighborhood. No luck with getting into HBS though. Oh well. It was expected but still crushing.
Plan B it is. Not gonna postpone my plans another year. I feel like I'm in the current state because I kept postponing what I wanted till the stars were aligned. The whole application process has reminded me that waiting for the stars to align will make the world pass you by.
So.... Plan B it is. Interviewed and ready to start an EMBA this fall. It's not the on-campus experience I craved...... but considering I wasn't willing to compromise the opportunity cost by selecting a safe full-time choice..... I will settle on a work-school hybrid for the next 2 years.
Well this is a spill on the way to 2010. I was really wishing for a couple of years at Cambridge. I felt very much at home when I was there back in October. But I guess I'll have to settle for a few days instead.
I'm not sure how many people actually read my thrills and spills.... But Congrads to those of you who got into your 1st, 2nd or 3rd choice programs.

Ahhhhh Tuck!!!! It's a sickly feeling. The last couple of afternoons have sucked. I guess this is the reason why some people don't even bother to try. Maybe why I didn't bother to try before.
What the hell can you do right?
Hmmmm..... guess the HBS decision won't be much of a surprise. Time to go run this feeling off and go full tilt on Plan B!!!!

Well.... the wait's over for one. Just wasn't good enough for Yale. Somewhat disappointing because you always think you're able. But in a way this was expected. Out of the 3 full-time programs I applied to, this seemed like the least convincing app.
Well I guess a stopover in New Haven wasn't in my stars. Another week to confirm that I won't be quitting my job this year.
