So here's the real update...
Besides posting pix and random things... I haven't had the chance to sit down and really reflect on my experience here in Toronto so far. So here goes...
eBay
The CAFR migration has been going soooo incredibly well. Week after week, my team has not only been meeting all crucial deadlines, but we've been pushing to make various improvements in many processes to ensure not only increased productivity, but reconstructing steps in a way that minimizes a lot of the potential problems that usually get picked up much later in the timeline.
I've been working hard this past month, but who knew it'd feel soooo rewarding!. We've hit a milestone this week, and our progress report is way beyond expectations. I'm so proud to be a part of this project, and it feels so good to know that I am making a difference.
In the last month, work has become a new definition in my book -- its no longer just about doing the job and getting the paycheck.
Life
Life outside of work has been great! I've been meeting new people, hanging out and enjoying the city. Most importantly -- I think it's such an awesome experience for someone to go outside of their comfort zone. In the last month, I feel better than ever. I've been able to do a lot of self reflection and have been refocusing my life in the sense that everything I do is a step forward towards my long term personal goals. On weekdays, I don't do much besides work and work out. I joined a gym that is right downstairs from my office... so it's been really easy for me to just drop in after work. I love living on my own. I come home every night (after work and gym), cook up a little meal for myself and eat it in front of the tv, chat on a phone for a bit, work on some personal projects on my laptop, take my time to get ready for bed, and to work I go the next morning... THIS IS THE LIFE =)
Only big complaint I have is having to kill bugs on my own. I've always had someone to do it for me.. whether it was my brother, dad, mom, boyfriend, or college roommmates (thanks Emily, Wendy, and Marilyn!)... it's been really tough for me -- and it seems like there are just so many bugs in Canada summertime! I'll admit I even broke down and cried once because of it... and I've been a bit of an insomniac because of my bug-paranoia.
But besides that, I've been just dandy =) Also, I'm working on a site redesign and reconstruction, which will roll out soon! That's all for now!!

You've ever ended a sentence with the word "SIKE!"
You can sing the rap to "The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air"

You remember when it was actually worth getting up early
on a Saturday to watch cartoons.
You got super excited when it was Oregon Trail day in computer class at
school.
You remember reading "Goosebumps"
You know the profound meaning of "Wax on, wax off"
You have pondered why Smurfette was the only female smurf.
You took plastic cartoon lunch boxes to school.
you danced to "wannabe" by the Spice Girls, Females: had a new motto,
Males: got a whole lot gay-er. (so tell me what you want, what you
really really want.)...and wore the 5 in. shoes
You remember the craze then the banning of slap bracelets and slam books.
You still get the urge to say "NOT" after (almost) every sentence...Not...
Where in the world is Carmen San Diego? was both a game and a TV game show.

You ever got injured on a Slip 'n' Slide
You wore socks over leggings scrunched down
"Miss Mary Mack, Mack, Mack, all dressed in black, black, black, with
silver buttons, buttons, buttons, all down her back, back, back" SHE
ASKED HER MOTHER MOTHER MOTHER FOR FIFTY CENTS CENTS CENTS TO SEE THE

All your school supplies were "Lisa Frank"
brand.(pencils.notebooks.binders.etc.)
You remember when the new Beanie Babies were always sold out.
You used to wear those stick on earings, not only on your ears, but at
the corners of your eyes.
You remember a time before the WB.
You've gotten creeped out by "Are You Afraid of the Dark?"
You know the Macarena by heart.
"Talk to the hand" ... enough said
You thought Brain woud finally take over the world!! What happened 2 Pinky??
You always said, "Then why don't you marry it!"
You remember when everyone went slinky crazy.
You remember when razor scooters were cool.
When we were younger:
Before the MySpace frenzy.
Before the Internet & text messaging.
Before Sidekicks & iPods.
Before MIKE JONES
Before PlayStation2 or X-BOX.
Back when you put off the 5 hours of homework you had every night.
WHEN LIGHT UP SNEAKERS WERE KOOL
When you rented VHS tapes, not DVDs.
When gas was $0.95 a gallon & Caller ID was a new thing.
When we recorded stuff on VCRs & paid $3.50 for a movie.
When we called the radio station to request songs to hear off our walkmans.
When 2Pac and Biggie where alive.
When the Chicago Bulls were the best team ever.

"Trippin' (That's The Way Love Works)"
He's trippin
She's trippin
And we both be trippin and
That's the way love works out sometimes
Cause when it's on it's on
And your no longer stressin'
And life teaches a lesson
That love is still a blessin
Cause when it's all said and done
Were back at square one
And that's the way love works out sometimes
check out this toni braxton song. i like it =P
