I was very excited last night when I saw previews for the Bachelor on Star World (my American tv channel). I don’t normally follow this trash-tastic show but after watching the Bachelor Pad with Christina Minix this summer I am addicted to the show. Anyways, the previews showed Brad Womack as the Bachelor at 9 pm tonight I was pumped to return to my hotel room after dinner and gchat to my fellow Bachelor followers a spoiler for this evening. As it turns out Star World isn’t showing the current season of the Bachelor but the season from 2007…such a disappointed. Someone is going to have to keep me updated on whats going on the season! There is also a really great Nescafe commercial that cracks me up. I’ve searched high and low on youtube for it but can’t find it. Maybe people in India don’t put everything on YouTube like we do in America.
Colleen you would be very impressed, I am keeping up with my running. Yesterday I ran an 8k and tomorrow morning I will do a 9k. When I first jumped on the treadmill it took me the first couple of kilometers to realize that the treadmill was in kilometers and not miles.
The first day in the office was an overall success. Getting to the office is a whole other story. Anything goes on the road here. Today, while in the cab and on the main road I saw a donkey, several hogs, people walking, people on bikes, and tractors. Someone even came up to the car and tried to sell me Lance Armstrong’s new book. I opted to pass on it. Once we finally made it the office everyone was very friendly and seemed excited that we were there. We get served a hot lunch in the office and I am undecided if I can go 6 weeks on it. The meal was rice and some sort of bean soup/mush thing. I didn’t eat too much and I felt kinda queezy afterwards. I think tomorrow I will stick to a Cliff Bar and Oatmeal.
Just to let you know all good websites are blocked at EY India, so no blogging at work!. I don’t know how I will survive at the office for 6 weeks!
As promised here are a few pictures. Below is my hotel room.

My favorite site from the room...yup that is a hog!
