The last couple of days have been strange somehow. Last friday everything was quite normal. Jacob, one of our dutch buddies celebrated his birthday on saturday and threw a party on friday at his place. After trying to be a friend for certain people at the party and help them overcome some issues, I woke up pretty early saturday morning after only a bit more than 5 hours of sleep. Still with some power left I wrote my part for our final report of a group project and went grocery shopping and all even before lunch time. Deciding that I already did enough for the day I started to relax, watch a movie and procrastinated my jogging to sunday. The evening was quite special as well as almost everyone just stayed at home - so did I and watched some more movies.
Unfortunately though on sunday it was raining. But I overcame my inner bastard and went jogging for 40minutes in the rain and it was quite fun. That's when I got soaked for the first time, but I didn't mind as it was intentional. Afterwards a friend wrote me that she's kind of bored and we agreed to go for a late coffee at around 5pm. When I drove to town it was still raining which was a bit more annoying as I got soaked for the second time, but this time with causal clothes. Anyways I still was in a good mood and it even got better when I came out at home in the evening and wanted to head to our regular happy hour at Concordia - and I saw the stars in the sky. But then after Concordia the fall begun. First of all I had some problems to open the lock of my bike. I felt it already the days before that it got worse but still, it always worked. Then today I had classes and when I wanted to leave I really couldn't open that damn lock - I had to try for almost 15minutes until it finally worked. I was late and so pissed that I didn't want to use the lock again - but of course the stores weren't open to buy a new one. So I somehow faked it at uni and put my lock around the wheel without really locking it. And I was glad and lucky that my bike was still there after classes. But then - of course it had to rain again and when I arrived home (after buying a new lock on the way) I was soaked for the third time in 24 hours! Anyways I started to study and now I feel quite good again.
Beside that nice little story I started really to think about my future. I got my last grade from St. Gallen on friday and it's getting more and more obvious that I'll be done with my studies in the end of may when I come back. So, huge question now is where to apply for a job. I'm mainly interested into consumer goods, technological stuff and highly marketing (branding, PM, online marketing) related stuff. And what annoyed me a bit some weeks ago was, that half of the companies represented at recruitment fair in St. Gallen were consultancies and banks. But as part of my process I decided to write an entry in the forum of an online community and stating that I'm looking for an entry position in marketing. Now, today I got a message from a company which is maybe interested. But the irony is: it's a strategy consulting company focusing on the sectors leasing, asset management, real estate and private banking...
