Updates

I doubt that anybody is still using this blog. I thought this was a very good idea to stay in touch, but I guess we have left it idle for quite a long time that it has lost its purpose. On this Friday afternoon, right before the weekend of 4th of July, when there are not very many people around, I decided to write on this blog with a hope to rejuvenate this blog.

I want to keep this message short but I want to give you (whoever is interested) updates from my life. To achieve this, I decided to itemize important things from my life in the past 2+ years:

May 2008: Finished school and started looking for a job in Phoenix area as Jen got a job as an assistant professor at ASU Polytechnic Campus.
August 2008: Jen started working at Poly
September 2008: Still looking for a job, in the meantime started working as a private tutor at Chyten.
February 2009: Decided to start a Post Bac program to become a math high school teacher which is supposed to take 1.5 years. I wanted to keep myself busy and have an alternate plan for employment, given the economy...
September 2009: After 3-5 interviews for 3 different positions at American Express, fraud risk management group finally managed to find a way to get an openning for an external hiring, and offered it to me. I accepted the offer and started working as a Fraud Risk Manager.
November 2009: Jen and I sold the town home Jen bought in 1999 and bought a single family home, in Tempe.
May 2010: Jen and I found out that we are expecting a baby. If everything goes as expected, the baby is due December, 25th.

And at the time I am writing these, Ghana misses a last second penalty shot... World cup is so fun and exciting...
