27th morning began with classes. We have a short, 5-session Workshop on Entrepreneurial Orientation that began on Friday morning. We attempted to list what makes an entrepreneur an entrepreneur; who qualifies to be one and who doesn’t.
We then had a Finance Class, the 13th of a 15-session course. All other sections have managed to have 3 quizzes by this point in time, but we haven’t received even the slightest hint of one it!
And then since we’re so short on time, we had an OM quiz bang in the middle of our lunch break, at 1:40 p.m. A rather drained-out QT class where even the professor eventually let us off 5 minutes before time then followed.
Some sleep later, we were on the Basketball court for a match- the last of the league matches before we proceed to having the semis and then the finals for each game. We managed to win this one too!
The Operations Club, Kaizen, held a quiz at 10 p.m., the same night. It was a fairly interesting quiz, based largely on all the Operations Concepts that we’ve been learning in class.
We had a Volleyball match at 11 p.m., against section H who have pretty much the best team- the best centre is on their team as is the best lifter. We needed to win this one to have a shot at the semis. We played rather well, and did manage to win a very close match. One thing that really works for our section is the fact that the women on our team can play rather well. The format requires each team to have 4 men and 2 women; most teams end up focussing on ‘covering’ the women on their team; the other team launched at least 4 shots in the direction of the women, expecting free points. What they did not expect was for the ball to be hit back into their court and, they failed to hit it back in time, each time, without exception.
28th morning began with only 2 classes post which we headed out to eat, only getting back late in the night post which we proceeded to amble around campus- it was a Saturday night and understandably, everyone was out roaming.
Given the loads of roaming the night before, most of Sunday was spent sleeping late into the afternoon. I got a marketing assignment done post-dinner. We then proceeded to roam around.
