FINALLY!!! the presentation!! haha! Sooo excited! and I was awaken by Daxiang at like

4am with his call from the US… haha… about the competition! haha! man!

 

Officially woke up at 615am to prepare to go to Fudan with all my stuff! Web cam, video

cam, laptops, everything! haha! man! Lucky Gary is with me! haha! Well, I am glad

that our consulting professor is there for us! haha! that certainly helped alot in terms of

morale! Also have to thank Fang Yuan for coming! Thank you sooo much! Love u all! =)

 

After that was SHEN meeting… Well, I guess i am too tired or sleepy… good food but not

much appetite… it’s at Shangrila’s Gui Hua Lou… we had buffett there! 

 

All along, I thought I was a pretty ok team player… until now… maybe I need to redefine

what does team player means.. haha! feels like I am in themiddle of 2 teams, between

BizBuzz07 (Which I am so darn proud to be part of with the other colleges) and SHEN.

 

Doesn’t feels too good when someone who essentially did nothing just pass some law to

the organisers without even asking for their opinions nor checking the SOPs if other similar

organisations are doing the same… But well, I guess u cant be happy with everything.

ok! When we woke up early in the morning, its really nice to

see words of encouragement from leen and michelle! haa!

 

But we quickly made our way out of the house to Fudan for site testing!

Also, I quickly went to get a Logitech Webcam and Mic for 470 RMB!

don’t want to let the quality of the competition be a limiting factor

to our winning!

 

We had a long day… went back to home to continue our work at about

9pm… worked all the way till 2am!!! before I took a rest to prepare for the

competition tomorrow!!! Cant wait to win!!! haha!

 

I would like to especially mention this: I am soo so grateful for having

such a competent and understanding team! I really thank everyone of

them: Alice, Hu Ying, Yilun and Gary!!!! Not only had they taken up alot

of initiative in deciding the best ways to display the content of the slides,

I also appreciate their understanding and help with the logistics for the

event! (like helping me tp put up biz buzz posters!)

 

For example, they helped to search for some information while I was out

bargaining with food caterers for a good price on the food for tomorrow!

I am also glade that they trusted that I am not taking my own sweet time

to do all the logistics and technical setup for the event!

 

It is with their understanding and teamwork that allowed be both a participant

and an organiser of the competition for Shanghai side at the same time!

 

 

haha! Less than 48 hours and I am still in office!!! haha!

completed my work in office, and also a meeting with AVAYA.

Hmmm Cisco and AVAYA… (and some other vendors)… which is

better? haha! Also helped Boss and the COO prepare slides

for Boos’ presentation to the board on Monday in Singapore!

 

MEt up with my FANTASTIC team at Zhongshan park station!

we are prepared to camp over at my house to do up the competition

contents! wow! its pretty interesting! our discussions on where to head

what to do, how to do it!

 

Also! I got to realized that these fudan friends of mine are prepared

to not sleep! haha! but in the end we still took a rest at about 3-4am!

woke up early next day to prepare to go to the venue fro more pratice!

 

I love my team! they are sooo enthusiastic!!! special thanks to WEileen and

Michelle for writing words of encouragement! haha! (^_^)

Today is crazy… I slept at almost 2am, after a WebEx conference

with our BizBuzz counterparts… Then its 7AM and I am busy preparing the

Bizbuzz07 materials with Gary before we head off to class in Fudan!

 

Also gotta thank Angela for helping me with printing in her office in Fudan!

saved a little bit of $. haha…

 

After class, our team met to discuss more on the business plan! EXCITING!

We are individually preparing more information before we spring into brainstorming

Thursday (tomorrow) night! =)

 

Even at work, I spent most of my time mentally preparing for the Competition despite

having a presentation to work on for Boss! haha! man! I have difficulty concentrating!

 

Taking this opportunity to thank Jane for allowing to lend the company web cam! haha!

Nice!

 

Went to the Gym and had a run! 7.6Km. To prepare for the Terry Fox run this Sun! haha!

And then its preparing the business case!!! haha! 72 Hour!

Today is a pretty hetic day. Not only to coordinate for Boss’ presentation

slides for the board meeting in Singapore, but also to coordinate BizBuzz07

this coming weekend.

 

This competition is a business case competition held across the globe in the

different NUS Overseas College (including Stanford, Wharton, Fudan, KTH).

 

We are intending to do it real time together with the counterparts across the

globe. However, pulling myself back to reality, I am still stuck finding a venue

that can host us at 1am… for free… haha! thats the challenge!

 

I even approached WebEx in Shanghai, as we are using their interface.

Well, since Fudan cant accomodate us due to the timing, I guess I will next

approach our companies, then worse case will be in a internet cafe… =)

 

Well I think my team is strong and we are set to win! hehe! I think I will leverage

as much from the diversity of the team from both Fudan and NUS to the best

of our advantage and also to harness the different skillsets we have to make

it happen! We shall WIN!
