PMP Course = SCB+PNS

Today is my 1st lesson of PMP class. Only 10 ppl attend the class today. I didn't expect that most of the classmates look so serious, the horrible thing is ............ i found some of them looks like my clients !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! a classmate is working at SCB .... amazing that he looks like Simon @ SCB ....... an idea prompt fr my mind, all IT guys working at SCB are looking the same. They share the common 'interface' .... even the look, the way they talk ....facial expression ........ is very similar. My goodness ! think twice, it is understandable since working at such a dull environment, everybody will change to the 'default interface'.

Don't talk about how old of my classmates ( i guess most of them over 35 or 40) .... I do enjoy the class as teacher shared many real cases and working experience with us. He is IT background and lucky me ... all of the classmates are working related with IT projects in project management role. We share common language and both of us could share many working experiences in managing projects. We spent half a day to work on case studies. In the case studies session, we formed 2 groups to presend the work of case study. In the 3rd case study, I was appointed to comment another group's work, finally, both of us chatting together on how to define scope in project planning stage. That's a dynamic learning model, i love it much. But .. I slept for 15 mins during the time talking the Organization chart ....... ZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzz. After took a look of my classmates' style, I am wondering .... do I have the quality to be a PM? since they look very dull and serious ....... and very 'clam' .... I am the one who looks so different among them. I am too energetic and active, which doesn't fit a PM style. Being a PM, should give others an image that you are stable and clam to handle all issues. That's not my style as I am spontaneous sometimes. :P Anyway, our classmates loved to share their ideas on every subject. It is really good to attend a class like that, coz' I can learn something besides PMBOK.

Tonight after lesson, I watched 'the Pianist' at home. I can't explain how I feel while watching it again. The part which I feel so deep is Adrien Brody could finally touch and play the piano after suffering a lot .... how he feels ........... the music he played by piano, delivery how hard he survive, how hard he fight for the life..... all the past horrible experiences came out in his mind ..........life seems meaningless but keeping surive, the sadness thing is he couldn't touch the Piano even it was in front of him! Something he loves the most in his life (coz it is dangerous to make any noise when he is hidding). Once you can touch it again .......... the feeling is hard to descripe. This screen recalls my memory of playing Cello. How I feel while playing Cello, it is because I lost someone I love the most in my life, pretending the Cello like 'you', 'you' would talk with me when I 'touched' you. 'You' sounded sorrow but I didn't mind. It was similar as what I felt at that moment ........ Movie could dig out the forgotten part in my life. I remember that one of my 'lostlove' told me, he loved the poster of that movie. I still remember that I tried hard to get this poster but it was out of stock all the time. Anyway ..........funny to recall part of my memories. Sweet and sorrow .......... mixing together. Goodnight. All my past 'loves'.
