What's up with Margots taking Lee as their middle name?

Okay, let's all admit - we've done the inevitable at some point - Googled ourselves. I will also admit that I have Googled potential boyfriends, old boyfriends, people I am creeped out by, people I like, etc. etc. It's an easy quick check. Well - in my Googling "Margot Lee" I have discovered the inordinately large number of Margots with Lee as their middle name! What imposters! They ought to just choose it for a surname, cause everyone knows Margot Lee just sounds...right.

Onwards and upwards - it's been a very crazy couple of weeks what with school and all. For the MBA Blog searchers out there, here's a neat list of things I've done:

- Auditioned for Follies, the Ross variety show in the spring, which included reading lines and singing "Hail to the Victors" a la Tony Bennett
- Took the writing exam for the second time using the B.S. "persuasive adaptiveness tool" - basically succumbing to the "Man"
- Wrote a paper about a dysfunctional team and even drew some cool diagrams about it
- Created a final presentation and presented to "investors" who will allocate their "money" based on the presentation
- Played a gig with P-Hat at Scorekeepers (that was tonight)
- Learned a new song to play with P-Hat
- Saved 30% off of $100 at CVS courtesy of a friend giving back a favor
- Made Thanksgiving for 10, moved the meal twice
- Almost finished eating the turkey
- Played a fierce game of Monopoly that came to a stalemate
- Finished the last assignments for the most difficult class ever: FIN637 (real options, options & futures, valuation, and sustainability, all rolled into one)
- Considered getting a kitten over winter break

Those first four items were in the last two days. Needless to say, it's been hectic.

Tomorrow morning I am flying to San Fran with boyfriend Ari to chill out on McKinsey's dime for a nice lil' offeree weekend. We're staying at the Omni, which looks decent, and taking some cooking classes on Saturday. Also will try to explore the city a bit and pretend like we don't have tons of work to do. Best of luck to ya'll doing your finals!
