Best Cake Ever

[burbuja0512]

Hi Burbuja,

Off topic, but in your signature, did you get your MBA from COSC too? My mind is not as good at remembering things these days! I think I am on circuits overload.

Thinking about an MBA in the very near future. Glad you have all your ducks in a row and I hope you find a wonderful house for you and the hubby. I used my i-phone to video the houses and then when I came back it helped me remember the homes in case I wasn't sure I wanted to make an offer. Another thing that helps is getting the listing with a floor plan. If that's not available, then have your hubby stretch out his arms as a "measure" if you are not sure all your furniture will fit. Texting pictures back home to people with an approximate measurement will help down the road when you are trying to figure out what furniture to take and which to sell/donate.

I am off tomorrow and I can't wait to make that cake!

YUM!

Thanks,
T

Hi! My MBA is a bit different than the traditional one, and it's not a quick program - it's a full 24 months with literally no breaks other than Christmas and Spring Break. It's a dual-language (half of the courses are in Spanish) Global MBA with a focus in emerging markets. It's a joint program between two Jesuit universities, Regis in Denver and ITESO in Guadalajara, Mexico: Online Global MBA in Emerging Markets Degree Program ? Regis University CPS

One of the reasons I really like this degree is that it shows international acumen and proves my Spanish fluency while still marking off the the "has an MBA" check box. If I were to do a different MBA, I would do either one of two things: 1) Find the quickest, cheapest MBA just to get it done or 2) Find a specialty MBA that can set you apart from the crowd or highlight a specific area of interest. In my case, it's really helped me shift my career from primarily N. America-focused to international. (My title now is VP of Global sales and my new job starting March 5 is Head of Global sales for a prominent medical organization) So, yes, my MBA did help, but of course having lived out of the country early in my career and my Spanish and Portuguese were equally as important, so it's really only one piece of the picture, albeit an important one.
