Why I am not yet asleep, I don't know. But what I do know is that today the BU School of Management had a moment in the spotlight, as we co-hosted the Third Annual International Tech Strategy Business Case Competition with Ericsson. It was like the United Nations, yo. Indians from Boston, an American from Stockholm, an Italian from Hong Kong, and a Chinese person from Mexico.

I love that the Ericsson CEO calls us "one of the premier business schools in the world." Hmm, let us ponder that for a moment. I'd rather we be called "the premier business school in the world that FUSES THE ART, SCIENCE, AND TECHNOLOGY OF BUSINESS."

My friend Helen and I volunteered during the semi-finals and made it onto the blog and are now famous.

Look at those two girls in the back trying to pretend like we get it. Some of the thoughts that were possibly going through our heads:

"There are way too many pie charts on this slide."
"Why isn't this stopwatch going any faster?"
"I need more coffee."
"Vodafone is so last season."

And to think....I spent the day volunteering and got none of the same glory as you gals. Quite the blog fame! Now if only the winning team had shared their prize with all of us who made it possible.... Hope you got some sleep!
