For a change, I'm back at the apartment earlier than usual. The week's flown by at light speed and I'm looking forward to Friday when I'm headed back home! Or am I...Doctor's appointment has already been made on the day of my arrival so I'm cringing nervously. Haven't thought much about it, being caught up with work sure takes your mind off your well-being.
Been clearing up company issues before heading back to Malaysia. Still awaiting bankers' decision after evaluating the new manufacturing plant. Time is of the essence. Apart from that, had a wonderful dinner with clients from Beijing. Real classy ladies. Spoke excellent English, although the other was more fluent in Mandarin/Cantonese. At the end of the night, I was presented with a Mont Blanc pen! Real classy. Penning Beijing as destination for November. Been hearing so much about it, gotta see for myself.
Apart from that, I'm totally over the moon as I'm going to be an uncle. Whoa..geez, not sure if I'm ready for that but heck I'm so excited. Finally, after almost 5 years of marriage, my brother and the Mrs. are going to have a family. Mum was even more excited as she texted me the wonderful news. I guess she can't wait to be a grandmother. Bless her.

Time waits for no man
Aaah, finally some time to catch up on some blogging. Well, its been quite a fortnight. Trade show went really well, better than we'd expected actually. Managed to close our booth 3 hours before time on the final trade day. The company's first time, partners' first time, my first time! It was quite exciting and the response was great.
Many traders who came to speak to us were surprised at our age. It actually took some convincing. Nevertheless, we were happy to be out there. Our main goal was to introduce ourselves, our methods of production and also getting to know clients. Currently, all major spa companies in Thailand are already our clients, and more to come from various parts of the world. I received an e-mail inviting our company to join the trade show in Dubai and Malaysia. I see a window of opportunity to do a stopover in Penang hehehe.
I'm planning to trip back home anyways as I've discovered a lump/cyst. Would like a second opinion from doctors I frequent. Kinda nervous about it. Hopefully its nothing.
Can't believe its already Sunday, the week goes by so quickly these days. Was at the factory till late in the evening today, so there goes my much needed R&R. Tomorrow's a big day - bringing two bankers over to our new factory 2 hours away from Bangkok, to evaluate its worth for some capital injection.
Right, time for a nice shower and its off to La-La-Land.
