It has been very busy lately. I am working harder than before. But I am having fun with that so no complains. I attended my very first cadaver lab on Friday. It wasn't as gross as I expected it to be. I think I did learn a lot.
So far Florida has been really really warm. I miss the cooler weather. I guess soon, I will be one of those who complain about the cold weather when it is 50 degrees outside.
I got my things from the movers last week sometime. After all the delay, they manged to lose a few things. One of lost boxes contained one of my wedding dresses. I really really hope they find it. One good thing that happened this week was that my living room carpet got replaced. No more stinky rooms, they have the new carpet smell now.
Yesterday, I played badminton. After what seems like eternity. It felt good but I missed playing with my friends. The people here play four times a week, Monday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. They have four courts and no board or anything. There aren't that many people to need one. I wanted to go back today but I still have a couple of boxes to unpack. So I will get back to that.
One last update, I am hooked onto 'Lost' now. My friends talked about it all the time and I had no clue what they were talking about. I started watching it when I started packing. I am onto Season four now. It has been a big help during the whole packing/unpacking process :-)

The first one !
This blog is Sabrina's idea and I thought I should try it.Well, here it goes!
I still miss Colorado, no surprises there. I miss my friends, badminton, my dance classes, the mountains. I miss being there.
Enough whining ! Coming to Florida details, I survived my first week here ! 'Survive' is too strong a verb maybe. I got a lot accomplished (according to me at least) with Sumeet's help. We found an apartment and moved in, managed to get through my first week at work, found a badminton club. The fun part was when Sumeet was here. We explored the place a little bit. And Sumeet got to go to the beach last Friday. We walked around and had a pretty good meal at a Turkish place.
Sumeet enjoying some turkish tea...
We tried out a Trinidadian place for lunch, the food was great. It was greatly influenced by Indian food, so we had curry and roti. It wasn't as spicy as Indian food but extremely flavorful. And the roti's were huge. We ordered three and we could barely finish one. Another place worth mentioning is a persian place where we had dinner. The food was awesome, we had a chicken cooked in walnut and pomegranate sauce. Yummy!
I ordered a yogurt drink, thinking that it will be like lassi. It was, but it was carbonated. I am not sure if I like that.
On Sunday, we went to a safari, Sumeet wanted to see giraffes. So we went. It was fun, the place was split into seven areas, representing different environments from different continents. There was quite a variety from the grasslands in South America to Gir Forest in India. Sumeet was most excited to see the lions and the giraffes, of course.
