These first two weeks of school have been really neat. I’m excited to start our actual classes on Monday. I’ve said it before and will likely say it many more times, but I don’t think I could have picked a better school for my MBA. I’ve been super impressed so far. Not having many out-of-homeContinue reading “The “D” Word”

Week 1 in the Books
I can’t fully describe how awesome this past week has been. Aside from a few (thankfully small) panic attacks and the normal anxiety, my first week at Cornell was pretty stellar. I’ve really enjoyed meeting the faculty and my classmates. The beauty of the campus and knowing the sheer volume of world-class research/development that goesContinue reading “Week 1 in the Books”
Day One in the Ivy League
Today was my official first day as a Cornell student! Going to an Ivy League university for graduate school as a 33 year old is considerably different than my venture to the tiny Christian Brothers University for undergrad as a measly 16 year old. Dog actually ate my shoes for the day so had toContinue reading “Day One in the Ivy League”
Sunrise on Upstate NY
The beauty of the Finger Lakes area rivals any other place we’ve been in the United States—sans maybe Telluride, Colorado. I still miss Okinawa on a regular basis. I have dreams about visiting at least once a week. One thing I liked in Oki is that I didn’t much mind driving for a while toContinue reading “Sunrise on Upstate NY”
Oki the Pup

I’ve never been super fond of other people’s pets. That is, until I met my sister’s dog,Continue reading “Oki the Pup”
Playing Adult
I mentioned in Finally a Trip to Ithaca, NY that I couldn’t wait to get back to Ithaca. That happened much quicker than I expected…my MIL came into town last week so Chris and I decided to capitalize on her being here and make a weekend trip up north. There was a house we wereContinue reading “Playing Adult”
Finally a Trip to Ithaca, NY
Took G to Ithaca for a quick trip last week. It’s even more beautiful than I imagined! I still can’t believe I’m going to Cornell! Buying a house is stressful and scary. G and I really like ice cream. I’m totally all-in on this farming thing and I think Ithaca is the perfect place toContinue reading “Finally a Trip to Ithaca, NY”
