Work started

I started working in my new workplace from yesterday. It is a research job but now, I am not doing much. The entire day yesterday, I just went through lots of documents to catch up on what is going on at the centre and today, I began working on a paper that I need to present in a week or so. The office is very close by, so I can technically walk to office but for now, Arvind is taking me by bike (scooter). He drops me off at office around 9am, I work for several hours and come home for lunch and leave around 6pm. A pretty peaceful life. The funny thing is that there is a Japanese guy who is interning at our research centre! His term is only a month so he will be leaving around the middle of July, but it was a pleasant surprise :) There are a few more foreigners working although I've only talked to one another person. I took a picture of my office but it is a bit dark so I will take the picture again during day time and upload it as soon as I take it.

Maki, so glad to see you've settled down in India. Me too, sort of, in Jülich. This is a very quiet research town, and I live by myself in a large flat on the tenth floor, which gives me full view of the city. Miss ya!

Hi Maki! I can't believe that you are this far away. But it looks exotic and you look really happy. Ithaca is... the same, you know. I kind of want to escape this place asap now :) It's hard to concentrate in summer. Good to know this blog so that I can catch up with you through this. I'm looking forward to meeting you again in Ithaca. Until then, enjoy your new life!
