I'm back online

I've moved to South Florida and reunited with my wife....Yeahhhhh...The move was not a lot of work since the only things that I have were clothes, books and binders. South Florida's climate is so balmy in December. We spent the Christmas together at home since we don't know anyone in the area....(We need to go out to make some new friends). New Year's Eve was the same...staying at home watching movies and TV....how boring...I know...Hopefully, the coming year will be more eventful..

Half of the semester is gone!!!

I have been on hiatus for more than a month. The reason is simple. The school is in full throttle and half of the semester has already finished. The work load is OK, not too much. But still I need to stay up in order to stay on top. The good thing is I can see the end of the tunnel. Only two months left. On the other hand, that means I need to start looking for a job in earnest. The market is a little better than last year, but it's still slow. Some fellow students who went to job fairs this month told me that the companies were recruiting more graduate candidates. That's good to hear. I hope the Florida job market is recovering at the same pace or more. I have found a couple of interesting jobs. One is a program manager with a technology services firm based in Franklin, TN. The other is a brand manager. I have already applied to the program manager job and am waiting for their reply.

I'm back online

I've been incognito on this blog for sometime cuz Julia and I were busy moving to South Florida. We are settling down. Today we've finished setting up the living room.

South Florida is hot and humid. Fortunately the coast brings breeze in the evening. It's nice to take a walk at night by the coast. When we first got here, we spent a week in the hotel because our furniture was in transit. Everyday we went to the beach. The water is blue and clear. The beaches here are much nicer than those on the other coast. You can actually dip yourself in it without freezing you ass off.

I started my internship on the 6th. The first day was already like a battle. I felt like I was dropped behind the enemy line. The fundraising campaign had been ramped up the week before I started. My first big assignment is prepare few presentations for the meeting next week. My direct report is very energetic and my co-workers are very helpful and easy-going. I wish we had few more hands to help us.
