My 1st week in Cambridge, Massachusetts

Well, I am now here in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Like what I'd expected, I am here again...sad and lonely. People would tell me to try to enjoy and have fun here...but I can't really force myself. I can say I am not really a loner person...all I really care about for now is to have Randy here. Period. Tomorrow will be his interview for his L2 visa. After that, he will ask for a 2-week vacation to follow me here. The only problem is his alibi to let him go. Randy and I agreed to tell the truth to his company...that he's going here to accompany me because I'm getting sick already with the depression. Now, do you think his company will agree on that? Is that reasonable? My only justification for that is..."FAMILY FIRST". Tell me what you think.

I arrived here last April 17 11PM (EST). I checked in @ Marriott Cambridge. Because of the loneliness I'm feeling, I'm not really psyched to shoot...here are just some of the pictures I took @ my room @ Marriott Cambridge. Nothing's so spectacular though with my shots...just to give you some idea on how this place looks like.



These are some pictures of my room. My room is located @ 24th floor. There are 2 floors in Marriott where there is a high security requirement. Before you can use the elevator to go up to those 2 floors, you have to swipe your access card inside the elevator. That's high security, really...and guess what...my room is included to that, 24th and 25th floors. My room is supposed to be for 'elite members' only. Too good that my boss is considered one...since he made the reservation, I got his room type.



Well, here are some shots of the outside scene. When I came here, it was raining...the reason also for my 2-hour delayed flight @ JFK airport. See, how sad the scene looks like???

All hotels in the area are fully booked...so, the day after I checked in, I immediately transferred to Residence Inn Marriott. It was really hard for me to transfer from one hotel to another because I was carrying a big luggage and 2 laptops, and a DSLR camera...it was really a pain! So, when I checked in at Residence Inn Marriott, eventhough Marriott Cambridge is a better hotel, I immediately asked the front desk for an extended stay. (I was supposed to check out by April 20 @ Residence Inn and transfer again to Marriott Cambridge). So, here are some of the pictures of my present hotel...Residence Inn Marriott:


For this hotel, I got a suite room with 2 TVs, one for the sala, one for the bedroom...oh by the way, pardon me for the mess inside the bedroom...I'm doing the laundry while making this blog. It has complete amenities: indoor pool, gym, laundry room, microwave oven, fridge (not a personal one, a big one), stove, iron, ironing board, dishwashing machine, coffeemaker, sofa, office table, office chair, dining table, bed, etc. In short, some will consider it as a "home away from home". But not for me!!! I really miss Randy. Now, Im really praying hard that his company would allow him to go here for just 2 weeks. Lord, please help us...
