mentally exhausted

i've been so bad at updating this blog....and i can't believe it's been a month since i've been in NYC. I still have 3 more weeks here before going to HK via London and Singapore.

so as you can tell from the subject line....i'm mentally exhausted.... my training here has been pretty intense covering all kinds of complicated finance topics...we just finished interest rate derivatives, swaps, and now going over other types of equity derivatives and options...and later on we're going to cover exotic options. oh joy! it started out all fun and slow and all of a sudden, the speed of the training went from 0-60 in 2 seconds... and as a result, my brain is fried. even though i'm mentally exhausted, i'm totally enjoying the stuff that i'm learning. but i'm looking forward to finishing the training and just start working.

in other news, july has come and gone but i think i manged to do a lot of things since getting here. i've been hanging out with my cornell friends on the weekend and with my new coworkers from various global offices. they're all pretty cool people to hang out with. i think we're all excited about our move to hk and starting a brand new life there.

okay peeps...off to dinner with my coworkers... i'll try to post some pics from the last few weeks when i get a chance. ciao!
