[Posted at Oct'07] Have you though getting married? What about doing it as fast as do you when ordering a to-go in a fast food store. Sounds crasy huh? That's exactly how it works in Vegas. The picutre below was taken in a Hotel in Las Vegas when me and other two friends traveled on vacation.

In the way there was a tree...

So this is the First Avenue in Seattle near by the Pioneer Square. There is this tree just in the middle of the avenue. There is nothing in special with it, but I like it anyway.

The Secret Trail

 

These are some of my new friends in the USA. From the left to the right: Alessandro (BR), Frana (US), Me (BR) and Pablo (BR). We went to walk in a 'secret trail' just inside Seattle. Although short and wet, it was nice. Posted by Picasa

Finally... blogging from USA

 

There were 24 days since I arrived in USA. The 3 last weeks were cool - actually, I'd say freezing! For me, a guy that use to live in a city whom temperature never got bellow 70oF, to walk in a street under 40oF was tough task. Last week, we got 25oF (water freezes on 32oF). I saw some snow in the morning but people here says that this is uncommon.

About Microsoft. My first day was good. There is a special training that talks about benefits, rights, policies, etc. It was amazing to see a hundred of new employees in that room, mainly because this training happens every Monday and the room use to be crowded. In the second tday, I got to know the group that I'm working on.

In my floor, there five guys from Brasil (Me from Recife, Alex from Salavador, Thiago from Pelotas/Campinas, Elbio from Porto Alegre, Rafael from Sao Paulo (I guess) and Marcelo from Rio). Also, there are people from other countries (Japan, India, China, Canada, France, Spain, etc).

This photo was taken in front of my building. There are a lot of building just like this one.

That's it! Posted by Picasa
