On Wednesday, I will be flying to Hamilton, which is somewhere North. It's our team's 2-day trip. Itinerary: to visit several power stations.
Excited? Not really. Come on! I'll be with a bunch of old geeks whose day to day routine involves having unending conversation about economic transformation, market supply and demand, and the likes, and whose life's diversion revolves around newspapers and crossword puzzles.
I can already imagine them laughing at some highfaluting joke, which is not at all funny for me. Argh.
On top of all that, the thought of sleeping in a remote hotel with complete strangers? That's OMIGOD!
Sigh.
Nonetheless, this whole trip will surely be useful for me. This will provide me a good background of the things I'm working on. I deal with stats so it is important to fully grasp the history behind each figure. Besides that, it'll be an adventure to put my sense of independence to a test. To survive 2 days with foreign faces in a foreign place in this foreign country is my challenge. And I look forward to that.
I'll be riding an airplane again. Woohoo!
And oh, I should remember to bring a good book to read. I reckon that's the best way to consume my spare time there...
