Some times I get extremely sick and tired of people who do not understanding the obvious. Anyways, I am going to make more time for my girlfriends and female friends for a while since I am over loaded with testosterone!!This weekend, Saturday I am going for a wedding and Sunday I am going to watch a movie with Anna. Anna has recently had a huge abdomen's surgery and I like to cheer her up by going to movies with her:)I want to make time for Melissa and the girls I met at GSK as well. I guess in the coming weeks. I might go and visit Purdue and probably will attend Novopharm's Christmas party. Today a girl from another department came to me and asked me if I want to go for lunch and I said yes and joined her and her friend with Shaf, my classamte at U of T. We ended up having a great conversation and realizing that she is a chemical engineer as well. We talked about U of T and talked about future. It was fun. I hope I can find the people I want to find, to ask my future career questions. Listening to people from different backgrounds and ages are always interesting to me. I never get bored of it. How long have you been working here?Oh god I think it has been 16 years!!the lady answered. So you must be pretty happy with this company that you have stayed here so long. I finally heard the sentence that I was looking for, for the past year. The sentence that freaks me out and makes me be single for the rest of my life!!Once you have a family with kids you don't really have the choice to move around and experience different companies or different fields, She said. How can I balance this?How can I convince myself that being married and having kids is not the end of my career life, specially now that I think I have found the love of my life?

Feeling Good- Michael Buble
www.amazon.com
Love the jazz in this song and love the lyrics. Enjoy:)
Birds flying high
You know how I feel
Sun in the sky
You know how I feel
Reeds driftin' on by
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life For me
And I'm feeling good
Fish in the sea
You know how I feel
River running free
You know how I feel
Blossom in the tree
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life For me
And I'm feeling good
Dragonfly out in the sun
you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when the day is done
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world For me
Stars when you shine
You know how I feel
Scent of the pine
You know how I feel
Yeah freedom is mine
And I know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life For me
And I'm feeling good

First week of work was interesting. Lots of reading but interesting. This time when I was reading SOPs and all the T&Qs, I was more into it and understood much more than last year when I was at Purdue. I liked the training program at Novopharm and I think the structure of everything in detail is fascinating. Novopharm is a big company with ~1500 people. It was bought by Teva, and became the largest pharmaceutical generic company in the world. I guess that's why there was so much thought in the production of the documentation and guidlines. Well I have seen them in Quality Control,Planning and Logistic groups. I am blessed to be part of the largest company in the world:) The first day, I found one of my classmates at U of T there and we are going for breaks together. People are friendly and apparantly I have won the QC lottary!!According to everyone in the department I have got the best supervisor and group out of the 16 supervisors in our department. Consider yourself very fortunate, my trainer said to me. I enjoyed exploring the company last week and can't wait to start working. The only thing that concerns me is the toxicity of some of those drugs. Novopharm is known for Penicillin at one of their facilities that is only dedicated for production. But our sight we have tons of different Vitamins, Antibiotics, Cancer treatment drugs as well as lots of over counter and pet drugs. Weekend was fun. My friend and I participated in College puzzle challange by Microsoft and tried to solve some puzzles:)and today hopefully is reflection and relaxing time and getting ready for tomorrow for another great adventure at Novopharm.
