Day 2 at Ogilvy
I couldn't really call this post "day 2 at work". I didn't really do any work today. That's okay with me. I went through some on-line tutorial things to try to learn how to use Adobe InDesign and I finished typing up the Internship Learning Contract that I had to put together with my supervisor. It just covers what I want to learn and help out with while I'm there. I talked to the guy in the cube next to me for quite a while. He showed me the stuff that he is working on. Everything is still very interesting to me so in spite of the fact that I'm not really doing anything, I haven't really gotten bored yet.
The train was unbelievably packed on the way home tonight. The conductor announced that there was another train right behind us every time we stopped, but more people kept packing on. It was hard to get off when we got to my stop. It was even harder to get any reading done. Consequently I still have quite a bit of reading to get done before Friday and tomorrow night we are going to see the musical Wicked...the story of the witches of oz... or something.
I am really enjoying suppers together, even though we're only as together as you can be when the apartments only have 2 chairs. Jian cooked Chinese tonight. Some sort of dumpling. It was actually really good.

While I'm throwing pictures on here I'll put the one I tried to take of myself at my desk yesterday. I just tried once and then decided I better not weird out my coworkers too much by photographing myself the first day on the job.

Don't worry, sooner or later I'll start putting up some good pictures. I better go get some reading done now though.

Hey, Rob.
Grandpa gave me the link to your Blog. I have really been enjoying it. I feel like I am getting to know you a bit better. I like the way you write. It's easy to read, interesting, and informative. Keep up the good work.
With love and prayers,

Rob,
I'm pleased that you're enjoying Chi-town. I think Ogilvy was a very good choice.
