An unexpectedly busy week

This week we had the practice of management presentation and in a few minutes are going to have the marketing presentation. This has made this week extremely busy, unexpectedly. And the fact that we had to review our CV for the Mannheim CV book added to the strain.

It has also been quite cold during the night and, for the first time, we had beautiful frosty mornings.

Yesterday we had also the A. D. Little management consulting firm visiting, which was interesting. It is important to compare company styles to see with which corporate culture you identified yourself more. Management consulting really seems interesting, but there will not be a way of getting around the 60 hours week, it seems.

And, to finish off, I arrived late for the Jan Garbarek Group concert yesterday. This wasn't really a problem and the concert was magnificent! I didn't know Jan's work before, only his fame, which is good enough to ensure that I wouldn't miss this concert. The hall was pretty full, (almost) everybody pretty respectful (I wanted to shout to a pair of female undergrads: "Be pretty and shut up!"), the lighting wonderful and the music phenomenal. The band is exceptional, and I especially enjoyed the piano player, who filled the room with his sound in a way I had never heard before and the drummer, who was really impressive. I had to think of my friend Mathias Rempel, now in Munich.

and now is time to dash to the market analysis class
