Non-Noogler Update

I am a week away from being a three month-old Googler, and currently I call myself the "non-noogler" (but not yet a googler). Things that I have done so far:

  • 151 unique drinks in Googleplex found and drank
    Tower of Drinks
  • Have jogged, cycled and driven from home to Google
  • Felt like I can change the world with my work after seeing the launch of my team's product
  • Have zealously promoted Google products to friends until wife now rolls her eyes whenever I mention 1-800-Goog-411 but forget to mention yelp
  • Commented that I "only" had halibut for lunch - ya'know, nothing special
  • Changed to using ion3 as my windows manager
  • Met Dr Vivian Balakrishnan, Minister for Community Development, Youth and Sports, and Second Minister for Information, Communications and the Arts
  • Got to know about 10 Singaporean googlers, including Meng
  • Attended numerous meditation classes/sessions at Google
  • Missed two company trips. One to Hawaii, and another to Disney Land
  • Loving it here
