the best

is yet to come .. indeed :)

okay a lil trackback..

last week, i attended a compulsary course that my division had 'selected' on my behalf. it was kinda a forced one but i obeyed nonetheless.

some background of the course..i gotta know about this course wayyyy back when i was in IT0S (it outsourcing project) with p3tr0nas. in service delivery line, it is... well, sought after because it discusses of the whole (IT) service lifecycle, from planning to designing to transitioning and last but not least to operationing.

as you can tell, the planning bit is where the ceo, cfo and senior management or consultants crack their heads thinking about the company's direction and vision, objectives etc etc.. and work on the action plans, roadmaps... they are paid huge big paychecks and naturally those salary decrease as they go down the stages..

where am i in the whole stages? hheheh with regards to current my project, we're in the 3rd phase: transition and hopefully if all goes well, operation in sept '08. yeah yeah that hints my salary too kan? so in a way, i can relate to the course, theoretically and practically.. and my current client addresses its division and function in parallel to the concept too.. so those make it a bit easier for me to comprehend the whole concept.

it is a 3 days course including exam duration..interesting course i might add because after theory classes, we're divided into different functional groups and played 'wall street' game. we need to apply what we learnt, while everybody adhering specific rules and have different objectives to achieve. it's really fun! needless to say paling kaya is the supplier, so if you have extra moolah, jadilah supplier..ie bukak bisness sendiri hahaha evening of the 3rd day, we had to sit for an hour exam, answering 40Qs.. i was really worried, i haven't sit for any exam for the longest time.. the last exam that i took was Nov3ll CNA. i admit that my rusty brain needs extra work, so i had to stay up late and revised. i would not bother to study kalau tak, but since there are penalties kalau fail... mak oiiiii... terpaksa lah sacrifice my beauty sleep kan? we finished the whole chapter in time before the guys went for jumaat prayers.

at last, the exam time.. i gave my best.. sampai pening2 pikir nak tembak apa... hahahha few Q yang i tak confident.. but deep down i hope to pass.. malas nak fork out my own money and pay back to the company... passed the

and today while having meehoon soto for lunch around 2.26pm, ekin and alfred called me to know my result.. hahahah nasib dah habis makan.. i sipped down remaining teh tarik and hurried back to the office.. alhamdulillah.... i exam.. :)

this calls for a lil' celebration (excuse excuse) :p
