Pile it On!
Hello, hello
It seems to be the strategy of the Olin School of Business to pile it on. My sense of time management is going through serious analysis. I'm planning on spending 15 minutes on this post so I can get back to case study readings. It's good though, lots of interesting material. I think in other context I would be bored out of my mind reading about the history of the home appliance industry and May-Tag but in this context it's amazingly stimulating. I think this is the main reason to go to business school. To give you the context to learn what you need to do your dream job. My top 3 dreams remain to be:
1. Run the Fireplace Theater and community center with my friend Creighton Irons
- This would be a great way to keep in touch with drama which is love so much and interact with kids. Not to mention Creighton and I would have such a great time living together. We did live together so we've worked through a lot of stuff.
2. Run a chocolate factory/ work in the chocolate industry
- I've been thinking about why I want to do this, because I don't like eating chocolate. I've realized that I care about the people involved. I worked with cocoa growers in Ecuador and most of my friends like to eat and drink chocolate. It's an exciting and healthy product that I think can help the planet. So yeah, when Chris Chieco joked on my facebook page "have you saved the world yet" I kind of do want to do that through chocolate.
3. Run a summer camp a la Camp Celo
- This is another thing that I'm familiar with and heavily impacted who I was and I want to pass on those lessons.
Well my 15 minutes is drawing nigh so I'll end here with another top 5:
My top 5 favorite books
1. Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
2. Of People and Plants by Maurice Mességué
3. The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran
4. Ship of Gold in the Deep Blue Sea by Gary Kinder
5. The Bible by God
