Too much pressure….
Monday, October 15th, 2007 | General, School
This past week has been good, however incredibly stressful and I’m obsessing over my next paper, just too much pressure.
I was floored last Thursday, when I received my latest paper back graded from the professor and learned from the e-mail he sent to the class that, “Kelly knocked the cover off the ball on this case! She is the go-to-person if you’d like to see devising effective frameworks, connecting-the-dots analysis of the differences, and successful interpretation of the results back to answer the question.” How in the world did I manage that? I have no idea. So now the pressure is seriously on.
I don’t know if I can produce another paper of that caliber. I spent about three days on that paper versus this next one which is on Apple and the PC Industry from 1992- 2005. Nevermind I’m getting lots of requests from classmates for help, I cannot help myself on this one. I just had yesterday and today to work on this and I’m obsessed. Friday and Saturday was my other MBA class and we had to cover statistics, so yes, my brain is indeed about dead today!
SO with the consumption of 3 cups of coffee, about an entire bag of grapes stackful of saltines with peanut butter, I’m left still just staring at my proposed frameworks in which to analyze this paper and about ready to combust.
It’s a gorgeous overcast cool day, I think I need to go for a nice long walk/ jog to flush out the anxiety and expectation put upon me for this case.
I will be in such celebration when the last day of a paper is due. In fact I think I need to stalk up on my wine collection now to ensure I forget all the incredible papers, good and bad, over the last 15 months!
March.. March.. I will be done in March! My Mantra!

Knocked the cover off the ball? Way to go, slugger! 
“Too Much Pressure” (by The Selecter) is one of my favorite ska tunes.
