A lifeline?

whew.... today I received an interview invite from INSEAD. After the two earlier dings, at least this gave my self-belief a new lease of life. Even though it's a long way to go, and I know that nothing can be certain, this has shown me that I'm "there or thereabouts" in terms of qualifications to enter into MBA. It's also made me excited again to submit my other MBA applications.

Another recent development is I have just gotten a new Toshiba Satellite notebook computer. Compared to my old dinosaur Dell Inspiron (which used to crash daily just to piss me off), this is certainly much much better. I have a slightly bigger screen (15" v 14") but overall its the same size (but thinner). It's also lighter meaning less burden on my shoulders. The screen is super clear, it has DVD/R & also built in Wi-fi. Nothing too spectacular but for me it's like driving a Porsche compared to driving an old Nissan Cefiro. No offence intended to any Nissan owners but that's what I'm driving now and I can confidently say that it's no Porsche.

Finally.... Gong Xi, Gong Xi! for all those celebrating the Chinese New Year. May the year of the dog be a good year for all of us.

cheers.
