Vaniah's MBA Diaries

On Saturday 1st October 2005, I started an MBA course at the Said Business School, University of Oxford. I'm still wondering how it all happened that I ended up here but I guess that we must all play the hand that we are dealt. So that I don't forget, this blog is intended to document my business school adventure.

Location: London, United Kingdom

I was born on the sunny tropical isle of Jamaica, and as soon as I could organise it, I moved to colder climes. Crazy huh? After finishing a stint in the city know for its dreaming Spires and knocking around Sweden for a while, I've finaly decided what my next adventure should be. My lovely (Swedish) fiance and I shall be travelling around the world after our wedding in August. Going full circle that is...

The beginning

Everything must have a beginning.

This is it. The decision has finally been made and I can now allow myself to feel excited about once again quitting my job and embarking on a new adventure. This time in the world of business and learning.

Yep.

I'm going back to University. Specifically, I'm going to attend Said Business School at Oxford University to do my Masters in Business Administration (MBA).



Strange. Growing up, I never thought of myself as someone who would end up in business... I always thought I would do something great - travel the world or invent something that would revolutionise the world or become a missionary in some far corner of the globe. Instead, I'm going back to school to figure out how businesses in this world are run with the view to one day becomming an integral part of a big wheel somewhere. Funny that.

Hmmm... I wonder where this adventure will take me. This is the beginning... Let's follow this path and see where it leads...
