Some notes on the past week:

  • The person I sat next to at the new employee orientation, a guy named Jordan, turned out to be from Waterloo, from CS, was in my Distributed Systems class last term, and neither of us remembered seeing the other before at all
  • Been working until 8-9pm or so most nights, and getting to work at 9am
  • Seattle is very, very hilly around downtown. Owning a stick-shift car is going to suck
  • The culture at work is still very relaxed; I'm overdressing now and then, but I can't bring myself to stop
  • I am loving the grocery shopping experience at Whole Foods. The US simply doesn't have grocery stores with the kind of massive selection and quality of Zehrs / Loblaws, but Whole Foods makes up for it with an excess of enviro-organic-hippie-ness.
  • But, frozen juice cans cost ~$2.50 USD everywhere here. What's with that?
  • I'm borrowing a wifi signal to post this; there are many downtown. I'm being very careful not to use much bandwidth, though.

To do very soon:

  • Buy a car
  • Find an apartment
  • Get a cellphone
  • Decorate my office; my officemate and I have agreed on getting a LoveSac
