November 11

Well unfortunately my dear friend Ashley had to leave early today to pick up her mom from John Wayne Airport, and since we carpool that meant that I had to leave as well.  I do apologize for having to leave 20 minutes early.  Anywho...today we started chapter 9 and to be honest I've had so many final projects and midterms these past two weeks that I have been burnt out and really didn't feel much like learning.  Luckily, a lot of what we learned about today I already learned in my Management 316 class that I am currently taking...so it was almost like a review...parts of it anyway.  In my Management class we just finished learning all about the structure of management and decision making so I enjoyed the fact that I wasn't going to have to learn a lot of new information.  I am also currently the group leader for a project that has 8 people in the group and we basically had to form a corporation ...so this subject was interesting since it applies to what I am currently doing and I was able to think about what we are learning and relate it to what I am doing in my other class.  I did find the whole idea of dashboards slightly boring and rather confusing...probably found them confusing since the topic didn't interest me...owell, I can't expect everything to be super exciting.  Well...I believe we left sometime around learning about OLAP...so I decided to be a good student and go over it and I think you have really good notes and slides on it so it all seems to make sense for the most part.  I know you told us if we had to leave early to stand up and be like "we're done were not taking it anymore"...or something along those lines...but when we were actually leaving we were to scared to do that.  Anyway thats all for now :)
