My spanking new baby :)
(Bought : 8 January 2011)
Have always wanted to get my own camera for quite some time now, but the need for it was "expedited" due to the upcoming business trip to the States and the desperate need for a camera as mom would be needing the family-owned camera.
Definitely contemplated to get a semi-pro camera, like the Canon Powershot S95 or G12 as it would only cost a couple of hundreds more (like +500-1000) but as this year is foreseen to be a year with a lot of spending, I decided to just stick with the most economical and less time-consuming option - a point and shoot camera. I hope she proves to be a worthy investment and companion on this trip. Got to thank Tina and Josh for accompanying me to Low Yat and giving much insightful opinions.
On a side note...
It was 4 months ago when we planned for the technical conferences and exhibitions. And now, 4 months is up, and i'll be leaving this weekend. How fast time flies indeed. It is definitely going to be an intimidating yet interesting trip, as I'd be travelling with the Managing Director (my boss) and 2 Directors. Though we're all colleagues, yet the ranks do intimidate. I just hope i live up to the expectations the bosses have of me and return from the trip with loads of good ideas and inspirations that would help generate returns for the company in some way. I know i've been really fortunate to be given this opportunity and priviledge that no others have, and I hope it reminds me to be thankful of this blessing God has poured out for me.
There's loads to prepare and pack and the pressure of everything is just overwhelming.
Reminders to self:
- Be humble!
- Make the best of the opportunity!
- Make life count!
- Take great photos! And lots of them!
- Step out of the box and comfort zone!
- Be courageous!
- Be sociable!
- Don't whine and complain!
- Get phone card to call home! and call home every night!
And....
- Don't flirt! ;)
Ahhhh, the anxiety is building up! Better get back to work ...
