This MBA Program is supposed to be very challenging. We have been warned about the workload, and we have been scared into submission. It only took a week. There is one issue with this whole theory... I'm still not scared.
Yeah, yeah, I get it, five graduate level courses compressed into 8 weeks. Hmm... this seems strikingly like my last year... But, I have tried to have an open mind and to accept that though my tolerance for work is high, this will still be difficult. We have now received all of our course outlines and what I see is very... interesting. I see an enormous workload, but with the exception of Accounting, it all appears to be easy content. This is interesting. It is also interesting that out of five courses there are only three finals.
I guess that means that if I can magically find the money I will be flying to Toronto for my Ikkyu Jo grading. I have looked at the outrageous costs of flying to Toronto for a day, but, this is quite economical when you consider that if I pass this grading my future gradings all line up with my Iaido gradings on the May Long Weekend.
Anyways. MBA workload = Manageable.
And how is Saint John? Still warmer than Calgary. Still no snow. And... still a little scary. The unfortunate reality of living in a high crime city. Its ok, the populace here is largely desensitized to it, but when you compare it to Calgary (with the exception of the NE) Saint John is a little sketch.
Redeeming features? Sunrises. Sunsets.
Calgary has beautiful movements with the sun as well, but this, this is different...
This photo was my walk home today. I would have gotten a better photo for you, but it is hard to see around the lights and wires of the city. This one is still a good representation of that spectacular band of light sneaking out from under the sky.
