Workwise, March is the financial year-end : all bills and work-in-progress needs to be billed; clients are also keen on closing deals; further, there were preparation and invitation with the 1 week China Roadshow in the last week of March, all added up the stress with the urgent works on my desk.
Yet, I'm thankful for the month of March as it's also the month of The HK 35th Arts Festival. This year, I booked 4 events : The Great Mass, The Opera - La Boheme, The HK drama - And there is you, The Soweto Gospel Choir. I enjoyed these evenings after work at the Cutlural Centre or APA with different performances by various international performers from Germany, Italy, South Africa. After these shows, I am most impressed with these artists who strive to lead their lives for their interests or dreams in music, drama and dance.
My last week of March was spent in Beijing and Shanghai. The 1 week China Roadshow was smooth and successful by the prayers lifted by many. Flights delays weren't as serious though there were a couple, and already got new business enquiries before I returned to HK. Both Beijing and Shanghai have changed alot, and I mean ALOT, since my last visit 1-2 years ago. Although the roads are pretty much the same, numerous new buildings or construction sights have filled both sides of the roads.
