Hello everybody,
Almost a week has past since my last post and almost a week until our placements are over. Busy week as ever here in Boston.
Since I left you, we went to the "best" restaurant in Boston, Mistral, which really did not disappoint. The food was amazing and what only can be described as grated chips are a new favorite. After which we went to what is arguably the best "condo" in Boston. Iain kindly asked us round for a party, which entailed listening to Berklee music students play the piano and teach me a lesson on guitar, really fun night.
The next day we headed for the unofficial tour of Hahvahd (Boston don't pronounce R's-must be hard for a pirate). The tour was run by students, so we were filled in on the gossip like naked running and the past students (Matt Damon+Bill Gates=Dropouts, Al Gore+Tommy-Lee Jones= Room-Mates). That night we headed to the Middle East, long flight but worth it as the Jazz band where amazing!
On Sunday, we headed to Ipswich beach and played some volleyball with the locals, I am a ringer whatever that means? We also went to the Prudential building on Tuesday, second tallest in Boston with 52 floors. The view over the city was great with the Bob Marley building a particular favorite (not the real name but if you see the building it will make sense!)
As for work, I am still working on my project. I have my presentation next Thursday so that should be good. I should hopefully know Acquisition tools of by heart by then. I am waiting on some very busy people to get information back to me, until then I am working on my presentation skills which always helps. I also have handbooks that are helping me learn all the inner workings on such a big company, who knew that its difficult to run a major company.
Tonight we head to Harvard for photos (no camera on the tour) and hopefully to a gig afterwords (One of the guys at the party with his Blue grass band).
