开心。紧张。自豪。
虽然近年来有尝试带领几名属下，但真正的以上司的身份把工作顺利完成，对我来说还是一个新的体验。
要学的东西多，需要教导的东西更多。
常常要思索一番，如何以最适当的方法，最恰当的态度，来对待新一代的同事。
我想，一切由一个 “静” 字开始 。

新官上任。。。
担起新任快一个月了。每次打上新的领带，就像十三年前第一天上班一样。
开心。紧张。自豪。

Pondering...
Perhaps its me watching too much of it on TV.
Maybe it's cuz I need to dress myself up without going through so much of my wardrobe.
Or could it be that I'm just being vain?
Whatever the reason, I have been contemplating it back and forth. I've surfed the sites, spoke to friends, looked myself in the mirror.
It'squite very permanent, and I'm sure many eyebrows will be raised if and when I get it done. I hear that it can get addictive too.
I wonder, is it the best way to define myself?
Decisions, decisions...

Once upon a time...
So there I was, stumped at how I'm gonna capture the attention of the small but important audience in the room.
The presentation slide was staring back at me, the words daring me to repeat them back to the floor. The fonts challenging me to a battle for the attention of the audience. It was threatening to turn into a borefest.
A friend sits me down to tell me as much during the rehearsal. I had 30 minutes before the real thing starts. It was counting down to the last 15 when it struck me.
Tell a story. One that I know well, where I know the characters inside out. One that would engage them, and tickle their funny bones at times. One that would inspire them, lift them out from the mundane dribble that was 10 minutes worth of slides before me.
I told them the story of Arsenal Football Club.
Fitting it into my presentation got much easier as the minutes went by. I was not reading from an index card, I didn't have to regurgitate boring facts. My audience were not dozing off.
Best of all. I was enjoying myself. At the end of my presentation, I got approving nods from my important guests, and rousing applause from my classmates.
Thank you Arsenal FC. You saved my ass.
To a fantastic 12 years at Arsenal, Arsene Wenger!
