Lecture at University in Bangkok
Thu, May 10, 2012
It was definitely fun experience to me.
I came to be lecturer of class at Thai-Nichi Technology of Institute today.
From 9am to noon for 3 hours… it was my SHOW. Hahaha.
I was quite nervous, though.
Because of previous class - Accounting when students showed much difficulty keeping up with the subject, I was quite concerned whether they could keep up and show some kind of sign for being interested.
My worry didn't need to last as far as today's class went.
Maybe I did a good job. Hahaha.
There were lots of smiles and laughs in the class.
3 hours seemed very quick and short.
Students never lost the intension listening up today. Thank you!!!
I am quite happy with how it went.
So everything went as pretty much planned.
All slides for the class were used as well.
My past weekend for the preparation is well paid off!!!
So I came to a big lunch after class. My reward. Hahaha.
Preparation was quite everything for today's lesson learned.
That's what I conveyed to students about making good presentation.
See my point? Hehehe.

Visit to Thai-Nichi Institute of Technology
Thu, April 19, 2012
Hi folks!
Main project in Bangkok will be officially resumed from coming Monday.
Today, I visited the university in Bangkok along with coworkers.
Thai-Nichi Institute of Technology.
Fairly new university founded for educating Japanese way of businesses to Thai youngsters.
Now, our firm opens a class "Japanese Business Consulting."
This is given by Shinzo Abe - Japan's Prime Minister in the past.
Meaning that this institute is well recognized by my country???
31 students are currently enrolling in the class.
Today - 1st session is for orientation, introduction of instructors and team assignment, etc.
Thai students were seemed quite shy. More than Japanese…
I give my presentation for 15 minutes or so.
Including introduction of myself and things I found in Thailand - different from what I know of my country.
All conducted in English. Maybe (surely?) I spoke TOO FAST.
It is my next mission that I speak as slow as possible… tough to do!
Anyhow, my "Presentation / Writing" class is scheduled in 2 weeks.
Until then, I have to develop the content of the class… and create class material… on top of usual project work.
Oh boy…
Wish me luck!

Now University Instructor
Mon, April 16, 2012
What's up, folks!
Now the clock is really ticking… my time to "stay" in Tokyo is limited and actually it's around the corner.
Time for me to say good-bye to friends and family… very soon.
Day after tomorrow, I hit the road back to Bangkok once again.
This time is just like last time. Expected to stay there for 30 days and I will return to Japan in the 2nd half of next month.
Busy schedule, huh? True.
Cannot complain! Am on pay roll. This is important… keep our lives GOING!
I showed up to the office for one meeting. That was somehow not properly scheduled.
Then, I came to find out that it was re-scheduled for tomorrow. Oh boy.
Instead, I had casual meeting with different executive about totally different topic.
You know what? Guess what I found myself into…
In 2 weeks, I have to become a lecturer to Thai university students.
On what? Good question. My class is of "Presentation" or "Public Speech."
Is that my favorite or speciality? Am not quite sure about that.
Though, I am already appointed to. I have no other choice… Like Nike - JUST DO IT.
Hahaha.
Surely, I will do my best!
I can tell lots of things from my experience about giving the presentation in English… I bet that it would somewhat help students who are indeed prospects for business persons.
Only the concern is that I have to do the project and, at the same time, have to prepare the class.
Well, hope that this is well worth it.
Don't you think this is great and yet interesting opportunity?
At least I can add totally new line of totally new thing in my resume. Hahaha.

Miscellaneous Thought: Blog, Evernote, and Watch
Thu, April 12, 2012
How's it going, folks?
My vacation week is still going.
I was quite lazy once again and I didn't even go out at all. Not even single step outside the home!!!
Perfect for me.
You know, I am kind of person never mind being home alone, just watching TV or surfing the Net.
If you know me in person, I am sure that you cannot disagree. Hehehe.
I spent quite quality time by myself.
Only regret was that I didn't study Thai language much. Very little.
Anyhow, I spent quite time for organizing this website data.
I still have lots to go to reorganize the data for sure.
Though at least, I keep going… until whenever finishing it all.
Next project note organization.
From the project in Bangkok, I saved up about 70-80 pages of note.
Now time to sort them out.
I usually take notes on the note pad such as "Rhodia" (from France).
I make sure that each page I make a mark for the sequence on the top (otherwise, I may lose the track once detached?)
Then, scan them… into digital data.
After this, quite easy and convenient.
All scanned notes are sorted out in the Evernote.
Dates and name of the meeting, etc. Of course, whom I had meeting with.
Once it's done, no more hassle like bringing many notes with you.
Always instant access to the notes from iPhone, iPad, Mac or Windows.
I can keep all notes indefinitely and no limit of number of notes!
Recommended!
At night, I checked more than several websites for wrist watches.
You know, it is about my crazy hobby… watches.
I found that some brand I usually don't take a look was quite interesting.
It is ZENITH watch.
Reasonably priced… notably, beautiful see-through back (rear).
Gosh… so cool.
Compared to other brand… such as IWC, price against value was quite high.
Some Zenith models are quite reasonable, too.
Hmm, I'd better go to shop to check them out!
Of course for the purchase, I have to discuss it with MoonFlower for her consent.
Yes, I do need that. Otherwise, chaos… you know what I mean.
I like peach more than anything. (BANG!)

Biz Trip to BKK #3 Now Ends...
Wed, April 04, 2012
Finally coming to an end!!!
Now my biz trip to BKK #3 (in this year!) is done!
All scheduled work is completed!
Congrats to myself! Hahaha.
It was long 30 days for sure.
Started with Interview to the President.
Dealing with USD 700 million (revenue) company, it was very interesting to communicate such a fellow.
2 sessions with him must be memorial to my life and big milestone in my career as well.
Followed by numerous interview sessions.
All Executive Vice President of respective business divisions…
and all business unites managers and head of operations…
Long 30 days, huh? Sure thing!
I learned a lot not only about the corporate structure and business model but also-
corporate culture
management issues
Thailand's business practices, etc.
Isn't this a great learning opportunity for me? Yeah, surely it is!
I love it!
So far so good in making progress about this project, which I am quite content about.
Now 2 week "suspension."
Thailand is coming to a New Year holiday in its calendar and, as the client's favor, we have a short break.
Oh, I love this part as well. Hahaha.
Thus, today is last day for me to be in BKK on this trip.
Of course, I will be back here when resuming the work.
To be precise, I will fly back here on 17th. Work resumes on 23rd.
Friends in Japan… see y'all soonest!
Friends in Bangkok, hasta la vista!

Biggest Kick-Off Event Ever...
Mon, March 19, 2012
Not feeling quite well… don't know why.
Ate something bad???
Yesterday, ate only one meal… Japanese.
Not seafood, though.
Hmm.
Don't know what's going on.
Well, I can tell one thing for sure.
Am going to be early! Yeah, right away when get back home tonight.
Major event took place today. Project Kick-Off.
Yeah, today… with 100 people attended!
Really big meeting!!!
I was operating the PC all the time, feeling really awful.
Well, thank God! Everything went well.
Of course, I went to the Thai language school as planned.
Not missing any bit.
Though, I got B on paper test tonight.
Oh boy… better study even harder?
Wait. I should concentrate what I need to do. I should clear my head up and study Thai.
Nothing more.
I committed myself that I will master Thai for 1 year or shorter.
Remember? (asking myself)
Work is fine. This week should be lighter then one last.
However, I do not have any choice missing the work for sure.
I have to contribute as much everyday!
One more picture from past Friday.
Good night view of Bangkok:
Okay, let me go for the day!
