I Heard It Through the Grapevine  
Incredible. After much prodding, I show some teammates my blog, and the next thing I know, a whole bunch of people in school are approaching me and saying, "Nice blog!" While I definitely appreciate the compliments, I am bit perturbed by the rapidity with which news is circulated at school. No secret is safe, it appears. I'll have to keep my friends close and my enemies even closer...Now I'm sure some readers are wondering which category they fall into. Heh heh heh. Now I can't say things like, "I think so-and-so is really attractive." Too bad. I bet that just whet your appetite too!

We had our last accounting class for the term today. It was awesome. In the beginning of the term, we had to turn in forms describing our previous accounting experience. One of the questions on the form was "What famous person do you resemble?" At the end of class, the professor showed a bunch of photos of celebrities and pointed out the look-alikes in our core. It was hilarious. We have quite a few hunks in class: Brad Pitt, Enrique Iglesias, Jean-Claude Van Damme, and Dolph Lundgren, just to name a few. However, the prof didn't have any celebrity look-alikes for the girls in our class. I'm not surprised. Most of us are Asian, and there aren't many female Asian celebrities around to choose from. (Lucy Liu, Lisa Ling, Ming-Na? Puh-leeze! I'm so much cuter!) Plus, we're all super hot, and it's well-nigh impossible to find female celebrities that can even aspire to our level of beauty. It's true.

Finals are here. Time to finish reading the strategy case on Ice-Fili, a Russian ice cream company. Just reading the case makes me crave some Fosselman's ice cream. Mmmm...Butterfat. Alas, I must study, especially since my grades on the individual assignment and class participation do not bode well for my final grade.
