MBA Year 1

Class/es Taken up this Semester:
  • Business Economics (ECN5020)

Why did I pursue MBA?

I pursued MBA because I think it will give me more job opportunities. In addition to that, I also would like to know more on how to run a business because someday I want to start a business of my own.

Amusing experience/s in Graduate School:

One of the amusing experience in graduate school is that I get to meet a lot of people who have different backgrounds or industry than what I have experienced. My undergraduate was BS Accountancy so my point of view and analysis would be more on costs, risks and controls. However, I get to learn a lot from my peers since I get to see different points of view of other backgrounds (i.e., economist, operations, power indutry etc. points of view). I am beggining to see the other side of things and this is one of the amusing experience so far in graduate school.

Characteristics of persons born under Scorpio:
The Scorpion is one intense little creature, with enough poison in its own tail to disable or kill a much larger opponent. But the problem with this kind of built-in biological weaponry is that it must be mastered in order to be used most effectively. You Scorpios can use your "stinger" for self-defense, using your powerful emotional awareness to render your opponent harmless. But there is a sexual component of poisonous tail also, and until Scorpio learns to control those strong urges, Scorpio may find yourself in uncomfortable situations.
Scorpio is the only sign that has three animal totems. First, there is the well-known Scorpion with its active tail. Second, as the Scorpio learns to master its passion and hold its instincts at bay, it changes into the Eagle. The Eagle has more perspective, for it flies high above the surface of circumstances, swooping down with its power only to kill prey for food. In its third form, the Scorpion becomes the always-peaceful dove. The real meaning of Scorpio is thus shown. Scorpio is about metamorphosis. Scorpios transform the painful poisons of possessive passion into a higher consciousness based on universal love.
The Scorpio motto might be "What is hidden is more interesting than what is obvious." You are the detectives of the zodiac. Your magnetic personality draws others to you. But you can also be secretive yourself, for you learn early on that when you express everything, others may be scared by the power of your feelings. You desperately want to have someone to merge with your feelings, but can become cold and withdrawn when hurt in love. You have the magic to light up the dark, but sometimes you would benefit by looking at the positive side of things rather than going into the darkness at all.

Famous People Born Under Scorpio:
Stone: Red Coral
Lucky Number: 3 and 7
Ruling Planet: Pluto
Pluto is the Lord of the Underworld. If this sounds scary, it demands a bit more explanation, for Pluto symbolizes everything that is beneath our consciousness. This isn't about the Hell where we are punished. Rather, it is the Hell that William Blake describes as a place "so beautiful that it would torment an angel to insanity." As the key planet for Scorpio, Pluto is intense and powerful, representing those things that we don't or can't understand. And it is from these hidden Plutonic spaces that magical transformations arise.
Horoscope for the Day: Keep an eye on the figures and make sure you don’t neglect anything, Scorpio. The Moon in your money sector is telling to pay careful attention to your bank account and what comes in and goes out of your wallet. With Uranus ruling the sky today your financial situation could see some ups and downs. Don’t loosen the purse strings and you should be able to weather the storm just fine.

III. Buyers' review

  • "Hey, Dell finally made something that's visually not an eyesore. I'm impressed. It's rare that I say that. It looks like Dell is starting to realize the value of aesthetics." - Dragon Fly
  • "I'm impressed the pricing starts from $499 on this laptop, granted that's a Celeron processor, but I think the point people are missing is this is a cross between budget and multimedia laptop AND most importantly it's lighter than than behemoth of an Inspiron 1520. In my book Dell has done the right thing here. The XPS M1530 cost isn't that high either, you can get it for $999 starting and if you want a performance notebook that's where to go.If you want the Inspiron 1520, as Jerry said, go for the Vostro 1500. It's exactly the same as the Inspiron 1520. The Inspiron 15256 is thin by design because they knew they'd not have to cram a heat producing graphics card in there. Thinner = harder to cool. - Andrew, NBR Admin and Reviewer
  • "Worked real well with my notebook and I run several open pages and at least 8 hours a day. I don't do games, but a lot of PhotoShop work. I really think the dedicated graphic is a lot of hype." - Jack 53, Notebook Evangelist
