Woke at 7.00am, didn’t really feel the band vibrate but the snooze did kick in later when I’m already up. Energy level lower than usual, couldn’t get the heart rate up and abs routine couldn’t remember clearly. Today need to consistently take more break, no mess up here. Bfast now at 7.51.am.

Got to work by 8.45. Met chun yew (choo) in the lift, took the initiative and greeted him. Tried to get some social time but he was busy but he still tried to chat me up in the hallway. Should be a good guy.

Replied wee boon emails and habis email. Going to test out the vpn right after this journal got updated. Had a chat on ice cream with kai yin. Try the pistachio sometimes.

Ee bing greeted me, good start, signs of extrovert I hope. Go and hear her story sometime. Remember to set date for Thursday.

Had a really good talk with Angela. First time introduced my personal mission statement. That I don’t want to be remembered as a sap guy. And her phrase that I most remembered was, you can change your life anytime.

It’s 12.19pm now. List of things I have mastered. The YouTube ariba channel is a better way to start.

Learned the story of ariba. It helps buyers and sellers to discover, connect and collaborate.

Left office at 12.30pm. Ate at the ginza mall some western food called Brew House. I wanted to order a burger but they ran out so I changed to pizza. Huge and tasty, I have another half left for tea break so it’s all good.

Tried to pitch the agung epic speech idea again but response is lacking. So it could be my delivery or just the audience don’t care about epic speech, it’s not their thing. But it’s OK, I’m a speech guy, people is my business.

Back by 2pm. Got an email by Edwin. Replied thanks, it’s 5pm now. At least 2 and half hour spent studying and preparing sap ariba sales pitch.

What did you learn?

A starting sales pitch for sap ariba with a focus on discover, connect and collaborate.

A problem statement. A company that needs to reduce spend, reduce supplier risk and all without extra budget or manpower.

Finally got my mail and other access setup. Checked my tickets around 3 mm and 1sd tickets. Confirmed that only the 1 mm ticket concerns me, only do stuff directly assigned by Edwin.

It’s 7.22 now, spoke to Alice and ee bing regarding the tickets. Tomorrow I will work on it first thing. Plan your effort. Raise it to abap if you need to.

Then carry out ur plan to communicate closely with Edwin.

Go to ticket, scroll all the way down to task, create new task. Search by key name grp td sap abap. Priority high or moderate.

Remember to update the Google sheet Alice shared. Also ask ursula if possible I get a chair change as it is creaking quite loudly.

Introduced to zul, tall guy quite fit, no glasses, a bit of goatee. In emobility team.

Left office at 8pm. Becareful next time when cross the huge junction. Home at 8.30pm. Abs workout as usual bath and eat. Update journal now it’s 9.35pm. Energy level low. Sleep sharp 12pm tonight no excuses.
