Take a deep breath.

Day 4 into the simulated management game and the results are kindda interesting with the Return on Investment at -3.64%, 0.65%, -0.97% and 5.07% over 4 periods. Looking good! We have another 2 to go before knowing if we qualify for the semi-finals. We're hopeful. :)

Today, someone dropped me a skype comment:
I saw your profile... it's rare to find people here who are both well-spoken and see the world, 'today', the way I do... you said some nice things that it seems I very, very rarely hear in Singapore... everybody's so rush-rush-rush, compete but conform... and your description of yourself sounds like a (good) rebellion against that. :)

The comment came from an american writer and IT consultant who is a complete stranger to me. What he commented, I regard as a compliment. But, I have to say - I don't think I'm well-spoken.

It's true however - I'm someone who never enjoy rushing, even when walking. The reason is simple - when you rush, you miss out the beautiful things happening around you. Life is too short to spend it in a rush. It's also not wrong to say I'm quite a non-conformist. I think everyone can be different.
