just wondering...

if being 天真 and 傻 a reasonable blanket excuse for every irresponsible act (if not borderline illegal) committed by a 27-year-old person?

wii fit!

just a picture of my newest toy:



will let you know if it's any good later - as we are still figuring out how to play. all instructions are in japanese so we can only guess.

is making new year resolution biblical?

i am just thinking out loud here, so please bear with me.

how should we set our goals for the new year so as to draw outselves closer to God and glorify Him? when we make our own new year resolution, it's so easy to fall into the trap of "boasting about tomorrow", as warned in james chapter 4:13-17. as there's no way to know exactly what God's leading us to in the new year, is that just plain wrong to start planning for it at the start of the year?

i still don't have an answer...

a great evening

嘩! 原來係握手位嚟架!

fantasy ceo

i know i have been slacking with blogging lately...

recently in one of my classes, we have to participate in this business simulation game called capsim. basically it's a computer-based simulation game, in which you play the ceo of a manufacturing company. during the game, you need to make strategic decisions on different aspects of the business, including r&d, marketing, finance, manufacturing, human resources and quality control. and the computer will play the roles of your competitor companies, and simulate the results for each year/round based on the decisions you made.

so essentially this is a fantasy ceo game, and your success is measured by a number of indicators - including stock price, market capitalization, roa, ros, profit, etc... basically a balanced score card approach.

so far we are already into the 8th and final round. you may think what's the big deal - it's just a homework assignment... but you have no idea how much time my classmates are willing to spend trying to do well and beat out others. as for myself, i did find it kinda fun and exciting, and i've been lucky enough to do decently well - not the best, but definitely good enough to pass the course. ha ha.

this easily is one of the most enjoyable courses in the entire program. thanks ted!
