I truly enjoyed this past week without work though it didn't feel like I had much time sitting idle and did nothing. I used this time to network with some of Haas current student and my future classmates. Some current students from Indonesia were kind enough to have dinner with me and shared their Haas experience, it's very very insightful and I learned so much about what classes to take, to waive, to bid, which professor to avoid, what to do before internship recruiting started, what clubs to join etc etc etc. Throughout the night, I couldn't stop admiring how knowledgeable and passionate these people are.

I also went to happy hour with my future classmates who worked/lived in Silicon Valley. Meeting my future classmates sort of relieved my worry a bit about not being able to fit into to the b-school social life. Nevertheless, my worry still linger which I hope will subside once I meet my cohorts. I don't want to be a social queen. Having a healthy and tight-knit relationship with a few people is better than knowing all people superficially. We shall see...

Meanwhile, I was also busy packing and moving my stuffs to storage, I still haven't found an apartment but I have met a potential roomie with whom I will hunt down an apartment and hopefully thing will settle before I leave next week. Other than that, my days were filled with lunch/dinner with friends and running errands...Next week will be fun, I am looking forward to Days at Haas.
