Sweets not served at sushi bar. We moved on to Ana Intercontinental Hotel lounge for coffee.
I thought that I was full... though, still able to finish this piece.

T-bird Reunion
Very interesting day.

Lunch? Went with Toshi.

Dinner with Aki and Koji.

What is all about? The answer is T-bird connection.
All those, friends of mine, are T-birds. Yes, all graduated from Thunderbird School of Global Management.
Yes, I studied (mainly had fun?) with them.

Now all back in Japan... in Tokyo, precisely.

We are in different industries... and interesting network. Privilege from MBA for sure. Happy

Over dinner, had too much food along with drinks. Talk was indeed endless!!!
Next time, we go to T-bird's First Friday (alumni reunion) and golf-outing! Happy

Wow, Fixed November Schedule
Previously mentioned of my vacation and 2 week business trip over US (total 3 weeks)... further plan is now clarified.

How?

Simply my client stated. I will follow (Do I have choice?)

Thus, my November is 80% fixed.

How?

From 6th for 2 weeks, I will be in Singapore.

Once again!

This time, I should be more prepared? I know the place now. Happy
Maybe better shopping plan? (BANG)

Missed Possible Favorite TV Program
Totally forgot. I was supposed to check new TV program starting tonight at 1am. Yes, I was awake then. Actually working home.
Hmmm, totally forgot. My fault.

"Cutie Honey"

Saw the movie... now TV program series with new actress.
Over three weeks from Saturday, won't be home... missing all good programs. (DARN IT!)

What shall I do?

Maybe ask friends to tape the program?

Anyway, working too hard... because I worked a lot and made myself forget about what I want in my personal life.
Seemingly, I lost important track in my life.

Already October? Count Down Starts...
Hi, folks. Didn't go to work. It merely became working home. Since I had to do some work with numbers... it was perfect to do so and I was quite productive.
Worked late, though. Didn't finish the work until 9pm or so.
Thus, difference from the normal life? Commute. Didn't have to commute and "wasted" time on train. Hahaha.

Count down is now in progress. My departure for US is on 6th. Yeah, in 5 days!!! Happy
It is important to have such break...particularly if you work at this kind of position / job... which get you lots of pressure!

6th Departure
7th San Francisco
8th San Diego
9th Waynesville, NC (AGAIN!)
15th San Francisco
16th San Jose
27th Return

Oh, from 15h fro 2 weeks... it's job... not holidays anymore then. Hehehe.

I may drive down to Atlanta to see friends... not sure yet. Will see how the weather is like.
Packing? Not even started yet. When doing so? Must be Friday night! Happy

By the way, even though tonight's appointment got cancelled... rest of the week is fully booked!
If you want to see me in person, please get the number! (BANG)
