Sat through my first management committee meeting today, and got a pretty good idea of why we get many arrows. Watching her present the slides and host the meeting would have been amusing, if it didn't mean we were getting shot.

The very first idea that ran through my head when she started was that "shit this reminds me of presentations in primary school" where even though you know your classmates and are friendly with them, more often than not you're still going to seem like you're not sure what it is exactly that you are trying to present. Which turned out to be true as she stumbled through half the questions raised and giving vague or fake answers to the other half, when glancing at mal and me proved useless (we aren't psychics, btw).

On another note, booking leave is damned hard when you've only got 9 days and you're not sure where you want to go. For the family trip Bangkok is a no-no due to turmoil, Indonesia is generally violent (besides I doubt my siblings are interested), and mostly everywhere else is too far, with my leave plan. (1 week in end november and another in december, to capture 3 weekends) Though I'll need to find kakis for dec.

Worst part is that I have to finalise this by 12 Sep, which is soon.

I Do Not want to spend my leave at home. =/
