My biz trip to HCM — May 13, 2007

work

Today, I fly to HCMC for a three day conference.

This is the first time I buy cheap ticket from Pacific Airline (just 1 million VND for return ticket) for my flight to save money for my organization. Oh, I am a good staff

Tommorow, it will be the first day of the conference. I will have something to do here. Best wishes to my mother in Mother’s day. I love you, mummy. I just had dinner and got an SMS from CMDT reminding me about Mother’s day. Thank you my CMDT. First night in SG was so sad, I am blocked in the Hotel because of the rain. My friends are busy and I do not want to go out tonight. Just stay online in the hotel and sending SMS.

This is the first time, I came inside the REX Hotel. It is very nice as a royal palace.

I only went around and took pictures. Some peoples thought I am a pressman.

work

I have been waiting for long for my office equipments since we got Grants from Ford Foundation already. I used to work with a old PC which I often called “old madame airplane with a young and handsome pilot”.

I got a new office and feel comfortable with that. Everything seem to be very good. New table, new PC, new laptop, new digital camera, new printer, new fax and my new namecard. Everything is brand new. I love the smell these new stuffs.

10 a.m March 16, 2007 before coming to the meeting with Mr. Frank DeGiovanni from Ford Foundation in Newyork

I got an email from Laura, SEEP Network about the future partnership with my organization. In the meeting with FF, we have also a good perspective on the continuing support of FF to MFWG and the future of MFWG. I am happy and busy too these days with my first time joining with M&D Staffs to prepare the Proposal to Citigroup Foundation. Finally, we finished it in meantime (10days for all required documents). I hope that everything will be good.

Since I have got new equipments, I know I have to work hard to make my boss, my donors sastisfied. Good luck to me and my work.
