Perhaps an update about my life in Boston is due (thanks, Maddy, hehe!)-
Firstly, I have a yellow car that is almost too cute for me to handle. You know a car is a lady's car when it even has a built-in flower vase by the side of the steering wheel. I succumbed and bought a Gerbera, which now keeps me company cheerfully on the road. Manly ideas on how to fill that vase: cigars, a swanky fountain pen, maybe an Iron Man figurine ...
I'll enjoy the car while I have it--seeing that I'll never be able to afford one in Singapore :P
Secondly, my one-bedroom apartment is quite lovely, though it was a pain pain pain to move in (if Armando wasn't with me, it would have been a PAIN PAIN PAIN PAIPAPPNANANNNNN), and though the living room is yet unfurnished (except for a corner). Below: bedroom with closet door open to show my mess (and spot the Evelyn); only corner of living room that is currently furnished; my attempt at a purple-accented bathroom; and a snapshot of one wall of my kitchen that doesn't really show what my kitchen actually looks like.
Thirdly, work is going extraordinarily well. My second week has just ended, meaning that I'm working my way up that treacherous Steep Learning Curve and will hopefully begin contributing more significantly soon. The colleagues are young and fun and very friendly. We have Happy Hour on Fridays (company-sponsored beer and munchies)--holy crap. Work hours are impossibly long, but there is so much to do that they aren't even enough. This is the type of job for the bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.
Fourthly, I have to go for a yoga class NOW, bringing this post to a very abrupt end.
