I feel like I need to take a moment to reflect on the last 3 weeks.
First of all, that fancy shmancy office you see in the pic....well that's all mine! It needs some artwork and also a plant but at least I have a door that I can shut it whenever my little heart feels like it. Most of the time I close it when I want to make important phone calls, or want to work without interruptions. But do you want to know my favorite use of the privacy door so far? .... DANCE PARTIES! Yeah that's right. I close the door, turn on Pandora, and rock out to some classic dance hits to get me through those long afternoons.
Aside from the casual dance sesh, I've been working my pretty little ass off at work. Some of its mindless monkey work, but most of it is actually really interesting. I'm working 10-11 hour days but I'm also making excellent contacts and learning the ins and outs of the Bank. I'm actually quite content with my decision to give the IDB another chance because it is proving to be a great experience thus far. I'm happy I decided to stay in DC for another 6 month trial period. My heart is still set on returning to Asia, but for now, this is probably what I need right now. A good job, a new beginning, and a much more positive attitude.
