I have caught the plague aka the cold that never ends aka the sinus infection taking over my body that my doctor won't diagnose.
I am about to see dr. daphne now. I hope the end is in sight.

Another year
Today, actually right about now exactly, I turned 27.
When I was a kid I thought 27 would be a year when I was all "grown up". I would be married or getting married, have a fabulous career and life. Well, some of that is true - but it is all in the eye of the beholder. I always thought 27 was the perfect year to get married.. And lucky me its happening!
Do you ever notice that young kids (especially girls) stare at you when you walk by? They just keep looking as their mom takes their hand when they walk down the street or over the back of the seat ont he airplane. They have a mesmerized and curious look on their faces.
Well, I remember being that little girl, looking at the grown up women and wondering about them and how I would be when I was older.
I know this is kind of a somber thought, but when did I lose this curiosity? What did I want to be when I grew up and why am I not that now? Is it a ceo, a princess, a president or just simply a mother?
In my 28th year, what do I want to accomplish?

No :HBS Invite
Sadly, both Steve and I did not receive interview invites to :HBS today.
According to the hbs blog, they sent about 90% of their interview invites for round 2 today- 750 with another 50 or 100 to go out over the course of a couple months.
While I prepared myself for the letdown as a couple of colleagues had been rejected before, I still had a glimmer of hope. Oh well, there's always my other schools and always next year.

Follow up to 300k miles in 3 hours
I've applied for 4 credit cards. One I was accepted instantly 3 still waiting to hear from.
Tip: apply to cards issued by banks you already use.
I'm well on my way to getting 25k in american miles. Now for the rest...
Other thing I saw- 15 minutes a day lastminutetravel is putting up all their hotels for 1 per night. The catch - you have no idea when. Monday - friday on east coast time. Who has the time to sit in front of the computer and click on a website every 15 minutes (no autofresh). I thought I did but you have no idea if the auction completed for the day or not.
Kind of disappointing.
