NEW YORK UNIVERSITY ABU DHABI My boss has already made the official announcement that when "high maintenace" is looked up in Webster's dictionary there's a picture of me! My boss thinks I'm so bossy that it's actually him working for me, not the other way around! Spending time with these 17 year olds who are potential New York University Abu Dhabi students have been so inspiring! I love my job and I now know what we are working for. NYU Abu Dhabi is 100% by the Sheikh. The NYU president has on numerous occasions called the funding of NYU Abu Dhabi "the Sheikh's concubine money". Needless to say, our communication manager has his hands full... The kids who came for Candidates Weekend, we're stalking them on Facebook to see what they thought of NYU Abu Dhabi... New York University from New York brought their own camera crew and medical staff when they came to Abu Dhabi. When New Yorkers go on field trips they don't mess around! I introduced myself to the President of New York University as the COO's little office troll. He loved it and gave me a big hug! I thought I would leave him surprised, but he left me surprised. A colleague told me I look like Barbie! It was the biggest compliment I've received in a long time! Since we're freaken New York University Abu Dhabi and funded with the Sheikh's concubine money, we got tickets for the whole office to Beyonce! She's performing the first night of the Formula 1 race. A four day event. Beyonce was great! It was a 4-hr ordeal to get out to Yas Island where the Formula 1 is held, though. Hope you all arc well! EFTA_R1_0 1506348 EFTA02434627
