Weekend arrives

Another week zoomed past w/o me realizing! Haha! TGIF! It has been the most busy wk of my life, coz I had lotsa meetings with suppliers, boss etc, and it has always been fruitful and enjoyable. I treat these as learning sessions and I am accumulating my knowledge.

Read in the papers that people are coming to Sg to set up water research, coupled with NRF's injection of funds into water and wastewater research. It has been my dream to attend international conferences and mingle with 'water ppl', feel that it will enhance my knowledge and enable me to know more ppl. But I have to take 1 step at a time, and now the 1st step is to gain more insight into the practical aspects of ww treatment, like purchasing equipment, talking to suppliers, doing business with them (bargaining of prices and build working r/s), drawing P&IDs etc. All these things, I never learnt in uni before! I was only taught the theoretical part, but never the practical part. So I m giving myself 2-3 yrs to learn, then I will do postgrad and hopefully venture either into the research/conference path or to do my own ww treatment! Haha!

To all my frens out there, who are also working, learning, striving hard: Lets all jiayou tgt! Gambate ne!!!

PS: I still love shopping, travelling and relaxing though. Frens, let meet up!!
