Too innocent
So while I am waiting for my ipod to regain some life i thoguht I would post a entry. Been 2-3 days since i wrote and in the mean while i have had my first ever hedge fund meeting. I just listened and made notes. Good to know there are some nice people in the industry not all assholes and arogant bastards. One of the guys was a former Morgan Stanley person and when I introduced myself he went ohh I have worked with another Irum before. had a bit of a chit chat on if the name is common or not etc. I made extensive notes as I had no idea what i woudl be writing in the proposal later on. In the mean while I made the follwing observations while trying to graspe all the was happening during the meeting
- 2/3 people were wearign funny ties, one with dogs and anotehr one with a wierd distrating flowery pattern
- 3/3 guys were married as they were all wearing rings
- 1/3 guys had very funny cuflinks. ducks. yellow with red beaks
Also been working on my table soccoer skills, i still suck though, perfroamnce has gone down from 4 goals in the first game to 3 goals in the second. we still won though. I am just crap at defense.
After badgering my mentor for a week he finally gave me a tour of the place so i met everyone. N0 more awkward smiles inthe elevator now caus i know pretty much who is who. There was a haring party today after work at the office. I didnt ofcourse try it but went along just for a drink.It was pretty nice. Also had an intern lunch/lecture during the week it was pretty interestign. this professor dude from TU delft came to give an informal lecture on antartica. It was more related to geology but it was interesting caus he went through all the pictures of his 'holiday' trip to Antarctica and gave some pretty cool information abotu the region and the journey itself. If you are ever stranded in antarctica look for a red cabin. apparently they have set them up everywhere as first aid survival cabins so if you get lost you can take shelter there and wire an sos. Good geography lesson. The guy was funny so he didnt bore at all. he kept talking and talking and a one hour lunch turned into 2 hours.
Right now i just got back from a night of Villager/Mafia and a bit of karoke. It was a lott of fun apparently I 'look too innocent to be maffia' All four times i was the villager, I woudl ahve loved to be the mafia and see how good i will be then. well we made the game more interesting by intoducing a doctor and two lovers. its all too much to explain so i wont bother. Biking back home on a borrowed bike was refreshing and now i feel perfectly awake. Well i am goona give sleeping a try.
Hmm i cant play anything off the ipod while its recharging... thats stupid.
