Am finally back from Phuket where we had a sales conference last week. This year, we could've done with a little more planning, dedicated a little more time and had a little less conversations.

• Day 1 - had a minor hitch when I went to my room and discovered that my luggage wasn't there! Imagine coming back after a melting afternoon buying stuff and bargaining with the vendors in Patong. You are tired, you smell funky and you need a shower...then, no clothes...went a little mad but thankfully, the management sorted it out
• Day 2 - we worked in the conference room till about 4am to ready the slides for presentation the next day...everyone was so exhausted. Where was the boss? Drinking and schmoozing, of course! Evil that I was...I made sure I guilt tripped the woman...mwahaha
• Day 3 - Presentations and outdoor sports...Dong did a fantastic job of running the games and yelling until she was almost hoarse...At night, I got testy with one of the Korean bfs who insisted on taking photos during set-up. That of course, made sure that I never got into their pictures again...Thank god.
• Day 4 - while slogging over my newsletter in the business centre, I saw the crew from America's Next Top Model check in. Jay is taller off-screen and Nigel...well, he's definately hotter in person...sizzle!

Anything that absolutely capped off the short trip? Well, yea, I got a great kick watching the boss get dunked inthe sea by two of the biggest-sized directors on the management team... mwahahahahaha!!!

The food was fantastic outside the hotel...tom yum, fresh seafood and yummy, yummy dessert. We got great massages and I got the first foot massage & pedicure in my life, Dong's fan club is still going strong - it's weird how they keep taking photos of her, it seemed funny at first but it creeped me out a little...Overall, the trip was exhausting but fun...now if I really had my way, then we'd be talking about FUN...heh. Oh well.
