关于这张照片

最近这几天闲在,一时兴起换了张msn的照片,谁知……

很长时间没有联系的一位高中男同学,突然给我发了条信息,提的意见最尖刻,具体的话语我也就不方便发表,反正是直逼我的心理防线。

第二个便是HF,她没有直奔主题,只是先问我有没有看到一条很热门的人大新闻,当我打开她给我的网址时,还是感到很震惊,觉得自己实在是很in

然后是我姐姐,她的看法最诡异,说什么从这张照片看上去我的身体比例严重失调。

太过分了!!!

严重抗议!!!

那一世

很多人都记得这首诗的出处,送给恋爱中的人。

 

那一月,我轻转遍所有经筒, 不为超度,只为触摸你的指纹;

那一年,我磕长头拥抱尘埃, 不为朝佛,只为贴着你的温暖;

那一世,我细翻遍十万大山, 不为修来世,只为路中能与你相遇。

有意思的三封信

昨天晚上十点多钟,收到班长Sanjeev的信,关于昨天的考试:)

(以下三封信均为班级群发)

Dear Friends,

Most of us were not happy with the exam today, I hope I can speak for all  of us as that what I gathered after speaking to most of you.
Hence as
senator of the class it is my formal duty to speak for the class.

Some of the things we were not happy about were the time, exam
structure, no feedback before the exam from our presentation. So I would
appreciate if you could highlight what you were not happy about the exam,
I would write a mail to Kircheoff about it. Please also include what you
would like Kircheoff to consider like lenient grading etc, so I have
something to argue upon.

I would like to thank all of you once again for your patience and support
and would like to make our MBA experience a memorable one together.

Thanks
Sanjeev

 

十几分钟以后,收到了另外一个同学KenSanjeev的回信

 

Hi Sanjeev,

Did you mean the Marketing Exam?

My two cents.  I agree that it would have been nice to get feedback on
the presentation before the exam which would have let us know if we were
doing things absolutely wrong.  Other than that I thought the questions
were fair and they gave us a lot of help to know what to study (i.e.
last years exam and even what 5 topics our questions would be related
to).  I've taken a lot of courses in the past where students got
absolutely no guidance whatsoever going into exams.

I probably didn't do as well as I would have liked, but that was because
I didn't study enough.  I can't blame that on the curriculum or class
structure.

-Ken

 

今天早上Thomas的第三封信

 

Hi everybody,

first of all, thank you Sanjeev for writing the mail!

I agree with you Ken that the questions were fair regarding the content of
the course. No surprises, everything is in the folder we were given or
discussed in class.

Nevertheless, I do not agree in terms of preparation for the exam. It was
poor as well as misleading. To make it short:

poor, because neither Prof. Kirchgeorg nor his assistant were able to set
 a reliable scope (6 topics were given, not all of the questions in the
exam were related, no sample calculations were made in class. It is more
than fine to include all the analytical parts. Still, in terms of good
preparation, it would have been nice to point out that the exam will NOT
be all about definitions, but more about application of theory (which I
prefer anyways)).

No feedback to presentation. Obviously it would have helped.
 
misleading, because the sample exam we were given was not only differently
structured, but way shorter than ours. Again, it is fine to change both
parameters, but it just does not mean we were well prepared.

To sum up, I do not think the content of the exam was too difficult. It
was the way we were given information about the scope of it, and that is
not a question of studying more.
On the contrary, the more definitions and theoretical background you have
learned, the more you think it is important to put it in order to assess
and answer the questions correctly.

It would have been better to have had the tutorial shortly before the exam
 as well as concise information about the scope (5 questions means more
depth, but we had at least 20 questions in 120 minutes, which means
scratch the surface...).

Thank you Sanjeev for considering these points when talking to Prof.
Kirchgeorg.

Thomas

 

呵呵,有些无聊,大家全当练习英文了

今天

今天下午市场营销结课考试,回到家什么也不想做,上网,聊天,好像每次考完试,人都像被抽干了一样。

周末在准备考试。考试前发给每个人一个空白本子,把答案写在上面,大家顿时恐慌不已。果然题目很变态,一个很大的案例分析,市场、STPSWOT4P,密密麻麻的写了十几页,到最后根本不知道写的什么。

然后德语考试,考得还不错,安慰了一下。

下午放学特意去亚超买了生抽和老抽,但是回到家又提不起精神做饭。如果没有学业的压力,享受一个人在厨房忙碌。

现在外面风很大,才一天,树都光秃秃的了。不知为什么,膝盖疼得让本来就糟糕的心情更是像沉入谷底。

最近一直在为钱的事情发愁,想不通银行的转帐是怎么回事。我不是凡事都能气定神和的人,每次收到账单都会让我不知所措。希望这种提心吊胆的日子能赶快消失。

我是一个很真实的人,真实的不免有些落俗。比如我有时,经常会八卦。这一点倒是和Vivian(当年复旦的高材生)意趣相投,我们俩有一次兴奋的聊上一天一晚。但是今天Vivian的爆料还是让我很震惊,不敢相信。班上一个岁数很小的男生和另一个比他大很多的女生,两个人大玩爱情游戏时被Vivian撞倒,然后Vivian尴尬的走掉了。Vivian已婚三年,尚且不能接受,更何况我呢?(不过最后一句话好像没什么逻辑,大家别介意阿)

之所以会纪录上面这件事,可能还是觉得给我的冲击很大。

我和丹丹两个单身女生住在一起,我是爱情幻想者,她是爱情绝望者,不过觉得最近自己在向她靠拢。

写到这里,洗洗睡觉~~

10月20日

很长时间没有写博客了,最近很忙,今天放学回家开始回信,断断续续写了几个钟头,总算把欠的帐都还清了。

因为这三个月开设九门课程,每个星期都有考试。这两天市场营销做iPod案例分析,两三点钟才能回家。今天看见Joyce,关心她为什么昨天没有上课来。她解释说,小组讨论一直到天亮,实在没有精力来上课了。

下个星期考试结束,计划着一次出游。很想去布拉格,可能因为签证的原因要推迟。关于旅游我没有很大期待,只是为了放松一下,因为实在是太累了。

写到这里,886

想念YW

搬家了,开始想念YW和他的太太。

因为出国仓促,一直没有找到住处,临行前给莱比锡学生会写了封求助信,没想到真收到YW热情洋溢的回信,他答应到飞机场接我,并给我安排住处。

坐飞机狂吐了一路,见到YW时已是凌晨,他和太太如约到机场接我,第一次踏入异国他乡的土地,第一个看到的祖国亲人。

我暂住在YW的家,他和太太把小卧室收拾干净借我住,初来乍到很多事情都是YW在忙前跑后,学校注册,办保险,银行开户,买月票。附近的大小超市他也带我走了个遍,向我介绍哪个店什么东西便宜。

很多很细小的事情都能体会到YW兄长般的关心,离开了便开始想念。

关于讨论

很早就想写写我们的讨论心得,一直拖拖沓沓懒得动笔,今天回到家已是深夜,打开电脑,胡言乱语一番。

来到莱比锡不多不少整一个月了,最有感触地莫过于小组讨论,一个星期有三四个晚上都要进行讨论,所谓的案例分析。因为班上绝大多数同学都是门外汉,没有相关的学术背景。而案例涉及方方面面,市场、投资、国际战略、企业财务,尽管有些同学在公司工作多年,但是只能做到熟悉一个或几个要点。所以大家在讨论之前,往往要集中起来统一学习一番,然后开始切入正题。

讨论小一般五个人一组,由教授在课程开始时划分,保证每个人有机会每次和不同的同学进行交流。小组内通常有两个德国人,其他的则是来自不同的国家,这也就产生了我们讨论低效率的原因。来自不同国家的同学拥有不同的文化背景,对问题的看法、解决问题的思路会相差千里,很难达到统一。对于这个问题我询问过台湾的交流学生,她告诉我自己的经历,每次案例讨论不过三四个小时,而我们却要花费数倍的时间。原因在于,他们班上的同学全部来自台湾本地,很容易达成一致意见。而中国人一般比较容易被人说服,比较容易听取和采纳他人的意见。而西方人比较固执自己的观点,每个人说上几条,就多出一堆要讨论的东西。

不过讨论尽管耽误时间,但是能够学到很多在国内课堂上学不到的东西,总的来说很有收获。
