Since I Took Office…
This morning, I read a science-themed question-and-answer session that Barack Obama and Mitt Romney took part in. It covered such issues as: Energy, Food, The Environment, Health, Space, and so on; fourteen questions that covered the range of subjects...

A Blog Post Concerning The Details Of My Week

Look What Happens When You Cross A Donkey And A Zebra
Have you heard of disc golf? (Rhetorical.) Let me tell you about disc golf. It’s a craze that is sweeping the nation. Wait, well, it’s sweeping GE Energy in Schenectady in America. I feel a little naughty talking about it though, as it is...

Song 2
This is a midweek blog, because magic is real and these things can happen. First things first – that Olympic Opening Ceremony! It made me proud to be British. What a glorious display. I can’t believe Her Majesty jumped out of a helicopter...

Challenging weaknesses & 'executing aggressively!' (Military style)
And before I know it, the penultimate week of my internship is about to end. The past week has not only been a reminder of my purpose in New York but also an encouragement to infuse all I can and more into my remaining time left. I look back and think...

This is my "before" face...
... We'll see how an American diet affects its jawline. Hello to all my faithful new blog-fans. It’s been a fortnight now since I started my placement (I know - late starter), and it’s a ten week-er, so there will be plenty material coming...

Keeping the Scottish Pride Wherever We May Be.
To date back to a previous blog of mine ('Honeymoon Period in a City of Culture'), I mentioned meeting a fellow Scot by chance in the NY office here. And so after a few chats and a coffee session, hearing how she ended up working in New York from...

So it has been two weeks since I wrote a blog, but I was determined to see London/England and have plenty more stories to share and what a busy two weeks it has been. In work the tempo has rapidly increased and all the Giles interns are starting to feel...

Week 3 - Quack Quack!!
So this blog is a little overdue. Apologies for that but it's been a hectic 10 days since my last one. In that time I've explored more of Boston, ventured to New York as well as keeping up with the 9-5. Life as a Bostonian is getting more and...

The one where we sat around not doing anything
My last post didn’t really say much about what we were up to here in Boston outside of work and I wouldn’t want anyone getting the impression that I wasn’t making full and proper use of my time out here so here is an update about what...

Honeymoon Period? So before I know it, week 3 is over in approximately 0.5 hours (just finished some work for the week, I'm not slacking I promise!). And the so-called 'honeymoon' period that I'm sure many Scholars have experienced by...
