So what's new in September?

Hello everybody!

Kash here speaking. It's been a while since I actually posted anything with content, so let's go through a quick update of what's going on in Montreal.
1- beautiful weather in August and September! Who would have thought? Certainly not me. I'm sweating my ass off and loving every smelly moment. (ahum) Well, let's just say that winters are long and cold and I'm definitely enjoying the brief respite from the cold.

2- school's in again! Actually, between the end of the summer session and the beginning of orientation and craziness that this fall was, I had very little time for a breather. I didn't even get to see my peeps since Marcel was working hard on his thesis and Bourgui on his black belt. At least they both are doing amazing things and I got to sit around and sleep in for a week-end (Waking up at 10 AM? Woohooo!)

3- I'm doing lots of cases in my classes. As in reading quite a few pages, analyzing them and trying to get a reasonable story and recommendations out of it. It's a very intense process and I think this is what makes the MBA worthwhile. I'm also taking an entrepreneurship class and I think I could be a good one. All I need at this point is a good opportunity on which I am qualified to act (i.e. probably something to do w/ computers) :) If not, I think I can be a strong management type guy that will actually understand the techies and might even share a few common things with them

Yeah, the MBA also teaches you to do lists. How pathetic that I can't find a better way to express myself :)
Nono would probably make all of this sound exciting and mysterious.

Oh, how could I forget? The wedding date has being narrowed down to the 18th of July in the Casino du Liban in Jounieh, Lebanon. We're waiting to see on developments in Lebanon's stability before confirming anything, but if you're reading this blog, there's a good change (100% I'd say) that you'll be gettting an invite around X-mas time, so plan your summers around this if you want to come!

As I already said, I unfortunately won't be able to provide lodging for anyone, but we an arrange for cheap accomodation nearby, especially if many people think they'll show.

All of this is still a little premature at the moment since Lebanon is not very calm and reassuring right now, but I still hope that things will be good by the summer.

That's it for my brief update, see you next month at the latest!
Love,
Karim

Well it's good to see you wrote something a bit more informative than your last post!
I see you have quite a lot to do, what a busy man you are. All this work, projects, responsibilities, it's just something screeming for a burnout! Luckily for you I have the solution to save you from madness: just leave all this tirering stuff behind for a while and come visit us?
What do you think? ;)

Oh yeah, I'd have made that shit sound fucking exciting and goddamn mysterious, with motherfucking poetry and birds and shit like that. 'Cuz I'm a fucking poet and shit. T'sh'yeah.

(Teehee ! Mommy if you read me, this was just a joke, and I don't really talk like that...)
(By the way, I don't know who reads this, so feel free to erase this before your relatives think about uninviting me to the wedding, 'k thanks)

Bouddha: I wish I had time to come to Ferney, and the $$$, and in that order. I'm busy and I'm loving it. Looks like I'm slowly turning into a workaholic, although I still have a knack for wasting time.

No: It's true, you're a fucking poet. By the way, I doubt anyone except for you peeps actually read this so feel free to go wild w/ the comments! :) After all, the internet is a private place where no one else reads your stuff, right? (ahum)

They're stockpiling on food in the event that you go there again. :)
