Day 1 all over again

So, i'm back at Google, but this time in New York City! We haven't really been around the offices too much yet, but i'm sure we will over the next few days. I landed at La Guardia around 2:30 and met up with some other FUSErs before heading to the Google offices. I thought we were taking a shuttle, but turns out Will decided to order a white stretch limo? No big deal, I guess. It is his birthday after all! Turns out taking a limo was less expensive per person than taking an airport shuttle.. hmm.. i guess new york is a strange place.

We got to Google's offices around 4 today and got introduced to the team who organized FUSE and then did an icebreaker (though i'm still not anywhere close to learning everyone's name). We got to tour the office and saw some cool things like the game room and a jungle themed room. They also have lots of Legos lying around that you can play with too, so I don't think we'll be bored during breaks!

And now hanging out with some CSSI friends before getting some sleep before tomorrow!

Over an out,

fourth and fifth week... again.

So, its the end of fifth week... the last time I updated my blog last quarter. Perhaps I'm picking up right where I left off then, huh. haha =P

These past few weeks have been extremely hectic, and I finally take my last midterm on Monday (though it was delayed from today after our two snow days!)

Basically, I woke up Wednesday morning to this:

And those people thought they were going somewhere... haha. there are still cars that have been reburied by the snow plows, and the roads are mostly passable... But some real pictures of the storm: Just flip through these. There were a couple of these showing cars completely snowed in and sitting on Lakeshore Drive. Pretty ridiculous...

My snowdays were unfortunately rather homework-filled, though I did get to go out to the Interclass snowball fight they had on the quad. It was pretty awesome. We have somewhere around 2 feet of snow, but the drifts are much deeper. I was up to my hips in some of them! I love snow though, even enough to get buried in it like sand....

Other than that my days have consisted of Hum paper, CS stuff, Math studying, and Spanish. woohoooo. Hopefully it'll let up slightly once I get my midterms out of the way, but something makes me doubt that slightly...

Even though my homework has been endless, i have still been knitting (of course). I just finished a headband to sell for the Commuknity Valentine's Day Fundraiser, oh boy. I think I really like this cabling pattern... 0=)

I'm heading back to Kentucky at the end of February too.. can't wait!

over and out,

Oh hey there.

I'm going to start blogging again.

Startinggggg... tomorrow. Probably. I'm almost finished with midterms, but even after two snow days, I still have work to do! I am surviving the winter though!

over and out,
