2月21日 In RedmondAfter a long time yeah !!! Good Day to all of you
As I said earlier, there are dreams in our minds which we would like to see with our own eyes and own ears, while we were breathing in a small place called "Earth". And that too said, the dreams constantly changes over time, over what we do/hear & want to do.
So, now being a Microsoftie, living with a reputation, which is awesome (I can describe it for 2 hours), one dream which was in my mind is to get to "REDMOND" - the Microsoft Head Office. So, here I am - on a training inside the Microsoft Campus.
It was a very long trip from Sri Lanka though - 24hours but the 2 stopovers gave me a nag of getting some food from different regions. Singapore ofcourse I knew how it was and where that is as I was living in Singapore for a quite a while in the past. But Japan wasn't and this was my first trip to the country.
There were announcements in "janglish" and I couldn't figure out what the heck are they talking about & there were boards/route maps all in their native, which you know except the "Toilet" & "Exit" which anybody can figure it out, rest is just some experience.
In Seattle, I didn't see the runnaway, but I don't know how the pilot saw it as it was hazzy or foggy you may call it all over the place. After landing I was thinking well it's not that different from where I live (Sri Lanka), where I can get the same feeling from 3hour drive from Colombo.
Even thought I was advised that I will be taken off and removed shoes and check baggage by the Nation Boader Guard - they were the nicest people I've met after a 24hour journey. And walked away without checking or with out opening my bag cleanly while my EM (A Singaporian) was checked with all what I said.
Anyway, I am here and it's very cold - drinking StarBucks coffee and eating fatty stuff while keeping me warm in a 12x14 small room with a heater running 24hours. I will update you more on the beuty that I capture while my stay in a wonderfull place called in Down Town, Bellevue, Seattle, Washington, United States of America. |
