Friday is a meeting day
Yesterday was quite a day...
Have a meeting from 9am to 11am about Card-Not-Present fraud. That meeting was simply too early and too taxing. There are many details plus it's too early in the morning! Somemore I seen almost all slides during fraud discussion with the product team. All of the interns almost fell asleep lah... but nonetheless I think it's useful.
Then there was a meeting with Asia Pacific Regional Director. That was keeping me on the toes the whole day because this meeting is like no joke. Lucky it's also with all the interns, so at least it's not so bad. Turns out that that was a very fruitful session. He was incredibly funny, cheerful and willing to share his experience and stories. He talked about himself, his daughter AND his daughter's boyfriend etc... and he said that since the girls are almost same age as his daughter, he kinda treat us like his daughter. Aw... so nice of him! He also try to make sure that we are having a fruitful time during our internship and wanted us to learn as much as we can here. He is really nice, and I really like him. To think that he is willing to talk to us interns (who I think is at the bottommost of the corporate leader, the way I see it.) and want to get to know us. Sure, it is beneficial for him and the company but he being a regional director... I never expect that he has no airs. Too bad I never brought a camera that day...
With that meeting in the afternoon, I practically have no time to do any work. Not that I mind because I don't have a lot of work anyway. But poor Tabby because she has a lot of work and she is going to have to do them all next week...
Watched Narnia yesterday. It was not too bad but I agreed with jul. It looks a little like LOTR. I remembered the first installment is more fantasy like so there is no comparison to be made but this time humans are involved so the comparison starts. Well, there are really incredibly funny parts of the show (KEEP SMILING!!) and I think the guy acting Prince Caspian is HOT! Haha.. And I thought that the kids in the show did grow up a little esp Lucy who is the youngest...
Oh well, nothing much to update actually. Just want to talk about stuff only. Back to soccer... Euro started about half hr ago!
Cheerios!
