Precious time — sleeping

Tired last night…. came back from the IPMF2007 workshop in Taipei and crashed in bed. Didn’t even bother to eat dinner. Woke up briefly to say hi to B- and take a bio break but that’s it. Now back to the IPMF Conference for some more project management learning and PDU capturing.

Was a rough week of travel that did me in…. Seoul Korea on Tuesday, then Malaysia on Thursday. To make it happen, Wednesday was all fly-day, then Thursday meeting then fly back and arrive Taipei at 1am Friday morning.

I’m getting old….

And winter is upon is. I had to break out my leather jacket for Taipei as it’s 20 degrees Celsius and slightly wet.

Seoul

Staying at the JW Marriott in Seoul.  Nice city and a nice drive in from Seoul/Incheon airport.  Very “american-like” infrastructure.  Cold now, but a nice cold…. made me think of States.

Big day long meeting tomorrow.  Going to be a long one.

Singapore Sling

End of week 1 in a two week company training course – leadership and strategy.  Staying at the Rasa Sentosa Singapore. Not much time to look around. Full-on days from 8:30am – 6:30pm. We had a fantastic lecturer/facilitator, Bill Fischer, who happened to be a Yankee’s fan. Had fun checking the Yankee’s series during the class but upset they again failed in the 1st round of the post-season. Looks like it’s Joe Torre’s last. Great run.

Had dinner with a colleague and her husband last night and then having a quiet Saturday morning. Woke up at an obscene 6am (!!!) by my own and surfing the web and catching up on all my readings. Time for some breakfast and arrange to see my relatives here.

Then later tonight we start up with week 2 of the course focusing on hands-on leadership. No evening breaks so it’ll be pretty intensive.

So much to catch up and do though….
