我在伦敦工作的日子




On my way to work in the morning

Been very busy with my work since summer internship starts. But!!I love my life. It's definitely interesting to date especially today!Boom threats!!Heard that staffs are evacuated from the canary wharf building. Luckily I didn't move there yet! There are too much to blog but not much pictures as it is prohibited to take pictures in any building. I will try to summarise it up!

Volunteer!!

First week of the summer internship was full of trainings!Very intense I would say. We learned about what is investment banking, equities and much more. One thing I need to stress on is never underestimate microsoft excel. It is a very powerful software and it is the most widely used software within the organisation. Meet lots of people, lots of networking sessions = lots of beers and drinks. We did some community service on the first week as well which is playing with kids in the school. LOL
Having lunch by river Thames.

London Bridge!
On my way home after work. Look carefully (I suggest you enlarge the picture). Tower bridge is still functioning very well.
On my way back home!
Finally I started to work at my desk after a week of intense training. Thanks to my buddy who shows me around the office. Typical office desk, with a desktop and a phone. It is very comfortable and I love the coffee machine in the office. LOL. We have interns networking sessions (free drinks!!I am sure everyone loves it) once in two weeks, talks etc etc..activities coming up are bowling sessions and interbank touch rugby competition!I hope I can contribute well to BAML despite my size. HAHAH!!
Food hunting at Borough market with my housemate
So..whats going on during weekend?Sleep as much as I can after hanging out with interns on Friday night. Besides that, shop for glossaries, things that I like and get some nice food at borough market. Oh yea, still looking for a camera.LOL!!and of course!go for sports!

Thats more or less..hope to update soon!time to sleep!

p/s: Haven't been shooting for a long time...
