Dancin' on socks

What is the best way to relax after a full day of Finance exam in the morning and Operations and Technology Management (OTM) in the afternoon? Salsa and Sangria party!! The party was a blast, with lots of Sangria (not a particular fan I must admit) and Salsa (BIG fan, I *love* dancing). I was still in post-exam shock though when I got dressed and I wore the wrong shoes, with too much friction on the dance floor. Bad, bad Suzy. You need to slip and slide, not be glued to the floor. So I took the shoes off and spent the rest of night on my socks. And having a blast. Yes, there are distinct advantages of being at a global b-school: plenty of handsome Latino guys (and a few American/French cuties) around to dance with :-)

Now that the Finance is out of the way (hopefully for good), it's time to focus on the job search again. I've had an very informative chat with a friend who works in Marketing who explained everything there is to know about marketing: what to read, who to know and how to talk the talk. This week there'll be the How to Get an Internship in Media panel (similar to the Marketing one I imagine) and Eric Nicoli, chairman of the EMI group will come and speak. All of which of course I'll keep you guys updated about.

Now I'm off to enjoy the rest of my lazy Sunday, reading the Sunday papers (bliss), reading my way through a pile the size of a small mountain of FT's and Wall Street Journal's that have accumulated over the last weeks, go over all the Marketing reading material my friend gave me and trying to catch some glimpses of the Winter Games (go Dutch speedskaters!).

[Edit 1: Nico Macdonald, who was one of the panelists at last week's Design or Die! event, has posted an elaborate set of notes on the event here.]
