So much has changed in Florence since I was there 6 years ago. Here are a few: This is te lobby of my old apt. It never looked so nice! My old school is now a beautiful hotel. The school was so run down and rickety that we kept our jackets on in class because the heat [...]

Bowling: The Universal Sport
Posted on February 5, 2011 by AshleyT
One of my classmates put together a bowling night at a local bowling alley and we had a great time. We went to Palace Superbowl in Elephant & Castle. Since we made reservation beforehand and were a big group they gave us a special rate of £7.50 for 3 games. It was half casino half [...]

Posted on January 11, 2011 by AshleyT

A Week Late…
Posted on December 8, 2010 by AshleyT
Yes this did happen in Central London last week. But it was gone by the afternoon. It’s actually really funny when it snows here because the city goes crazy. They have no idea how to handle it. Every tube had major delays, buses had minor delays and some shops were closed. One of my classes [...]

First Group Project – COMPLETED
Posted on December 1, 2010 by AshleyT
In my buyer behavior class we decided to investigate how Research In Motion repositioned the Blackberry from a business phone to a social smartphone.
