Mid-term week

Wow, what a week. I've never had a week like this since I came to Wentworth. So many things and obligations, and all in one week. I am usually good in time management, but this time I wasn't the one managing my time. In previous semesters professors would schedule mid-terms and projects over three weeks (before mid-term week, during mid-term week, and after). However, this time, they put everything into this week, plus many other things fell into this week, too.

Here is a short overview of my schedule during mid-term week:

Friday, October 12 - Desk Attendant duty, 9:00pm-12:00am

Saturday, October 13 - Boston Area College Housing Association (BACHA) conference, 7:45am-3:00pm; worked on an important case study that was due Thursday, October 18, 3:30pm-3:00am; Resident Assistant duty, 9:00pm-3:00am

Sunday, October 14 - Wentworth Open House day, 8:00am-2:00pm; studied for my first mid-term exam in Finite Math, 3:00pm-8:00pm; Desk Attendant duty, 8:00pm-11:30pm

Monday, October 15 - Finite Math midterm and classes, 9:00am-4:00pm; studying for a mid-term in Project Management, 5:00pm-12:00am

Tuesday, October 16 - Classes, 8:00am-2:00pm; studying for a mid-term in Project Management, 3:00pm-6:00pm; co-op info session with Cisco company, 6:00pm-8:00pm; Resident Assistant duty, 8:00pm-12:00am

Wednesday, October 17 - Project Management midterm and classes, 9:00am-4:00pm; first interview with Cisco, 4:00pm-5:00pm; program for my residents, 6:00pm-11:00pm; Desk Attendant duty, 11:30pm-3:00am

Thursday, October 18 - Project Management project submission, 10:00am-12:00pm; studying for a midterm in Ethics, 1:00pm-5:00pm and 8:00pm-12:00am; second interview with Cisco, 5:30pm-7:00pm

Friday, October 19 - Ethics mid-term and classes, 9:00am- 4:00pm; write a blog for WIT, 5:00pm-6:00pm, Desk Attendant duty, 9:00pm-12:00am

As you can see, it was crazy. However, the outcomes of the week were more than good. Finite Math, Project Management, and Ethics mid-terms were all "A"s, Project Management case study was also an "A", two interviews with Cisco were great, program for residents was a complete success, and duty nights were quiet and without problems.

Midterms weren't completely over, since I had one more this week, but I decided to treat myself and join 12 of my friends and spend a weekend (October 20 & 21) in Cape Cod. It was just what I needed: sun, beach, fireplace, Red Sox game in a pub, and dear friends. I recharged my batteries and attacked the following week (this week). There are still things to accomplish, but more about it next week :).
