The last week
This is it. My final 7 days in Florida. Exactly a week from today, I start a new phase in my life. A new city. New friends and new experiences. I'm really excited. The last three and a half years in Florida have been awesome but I think I'm definitely ready to move on.
I had all these plans for a crazy last weekend in Florida. Don't know if that's gonna happen anymore. Have been down with the flu (?) the last couple of days and haven't been able to get out of bed. Sucks.
The preparation for the move has been coming along fine. Finally found a roommate. In fact I found quite a few people who were interested in sharing the apartment. The prospective roommates included a couple of really cute girls too! Unfortunately I had already said yes to this guy so I couldn't live out the fantasy of every straight guy: hot female roommate! Don't judge me.
Although I'm not entirely sure why the idea of a female roommate holds such a fascination for us guys. It's not like we'll be standing in the living room baking pizza and suddenly some chik-boom-chik-boom music will start in the background, like you've seen in every porn flick ever made......you know what I'm talking about, and we'll start doing it right there. So what's the deal? I dunno. It's a guy thing I guess.
Anyway, all that is completely irrelavent since contrary to what all my friends recommended I did not ditch my roommate and said no to the two girls.
Also sent out my request for a 'change of status' to the international office at Duke. I'm cutting it a little close since I've put down my last date at work as the 19th and the INS needs to get my documents before that. Hopefully it'll turn out fine. (A small plug for my school. The kind of assistance I have recieved from the folks in the international office and in fact all the departments at Duke/Fuqua has been absolutely amazing. )
In other Fuqua news, I received my Health Sector Management "bootcamp" course pack today. When the UPS guy came in with that big ass packet, I thought the health care program had probably sent me a bag full of gifts and maybe some reading material. I was expecting...I dunno...a shirt? a bag? a mug? HA! Was I mistaken! They sent me a 5 inch thick pile of sheets to read. Double sided. Before the 5th. And this is apart from the Accounting and Math CDs that I am supposed to go through. WTF! Whatever happened to the "enjoy your summer, don't worry about B school at all right now" advice that everyone and their aunt seemed to be giving me! Ok fine. No one said B school was going to be easy.

Guys are into the idea of living with girls because they are hoping to come home to either naked vacuming or cooking in a bikini. Oh and who can forget that cute girls usually bring their cute friends over ;)
Happy readings!
USPS it is! Did you get insurance or anything?
hey thanks
