To: ' ecipients:M] From: Sent: Mon 1/30/2012 PM Subject: Reporting from IHey y'all! haven't written since I decided to leave but as life has taken such twists, how could I not keep you informed? did land a job in NYC with a billionaire family, however the visa cap was filled a week before my application could go out. 'm now trying my luck in for a week: When I landed at I thought I had one back to because there were as many Arabs and Indians there as in ! A red flag right there. Nevertheless, I enthusiastically bought a ticket with express to get to I told the attendant I was very excited to go on the -thing! He gave me a weird look. After some mishaps I was in my 4 star hotel. Ifs like a submarine. OK, we really need a world- wide standard where 4 stars means the same thing everywhere. 'm trying to make communicatio ier with these British hillibillies by adjusting my own Ivy League English (I know givy League, but let's not get hung up on details) and asked in the reception for the station and wanted to laugh when they actually knew what I meant! ast time I checked +5 C didn't feel this cold. It's freaken cold here. People s rkers are rude, but that's not true! New Yorkers are helpful and extroverted. are on the other hand so not helpful! Worse than the Parisiannes! My sister told me she had no idea I was in looking for a job. I barely knew I was looking for a job here myself, but here I am. Strange men are calling me 'love' and I'm looking the wrong way crossing the street. t the end of the day, these are the facts: is as I remembered it: A cute town with inhabitants who pretend to be living in a real city like New York. Everything is miniature of New York. However, ANYTHING is better than the Middle East. II, I would really love to know what's going on in your lives, so if you have time, do drop me a line! ake care!
