Here

Hello friends. Thought it was time to make an appearance and let you know where I'm at. I moved down to the big NJ about a week and a half ago. Work has been very good so far, though very long. I remain excited about my program.

As expected, I don't really know anyone in the area at all. Coming from an environment where even I felt slightly overloaded socially to this absolute silence is a transition. I don't intend to become comfortable with boredom, I'm working at meeting people but as you likely imagine, haven't gotten incredibly far. Even though I'm not an intern, there are a lot of interns here, and because they're European (different system), they're almost all older or at least the same age. Please forgive me if I start speaking English with a German/Polish accent. In the meantime, I'm reading and will make posts to the sticky... (or was it gummy?) blog in time.
