I Got My Swim Trunks, And My Flippy Floppies
You might know this line from the now infamous video starring T-Pain and cast members from Saturday Night Live.
However, this is my reality.
Many of you have been avid readers of this blog, and I appreciate that. I had initially started this blog to document my travels (many of you remember my 7 continents, 5 years, 1 message mission). This space then evolved to a house for my Notion to Motion project, where I talked about building a business based on passion.
48 episodes later, we are up and running and have come to the end of that chapter in the journey.
So where have I been? What have I been up to?
Well, some of you know that I took some time off of work, put the businesses on hold, and went back to business school. I am currently attending INSEAD. A <insert amazing adjectives here> business school with two campuses – one in France and the other in Singapore.
The curriculum is broken up into 5 periods, 2 of which I have already completed on the campus in France, and now I am beginning my 3rd period in Singapore.
While the weather is nice, the beaches amazing, and the travel plentiful — the task at hand is still quite intense.
Learn from some of the best and brightest minds in business along side some of the most intelligent people I have met.
So yes, I do have my swim trunks, my flippy floppies, and now, I also have a different learning perspective.
These changes are exciting, but some things don’t change. You know how we sign off here at globalcitizenexperiment. Globalcitizen…. OUT!

do not let your education get in the way of spending quality time on this beach.

LOL – funny. How about i take my educational material ON this beach? Yet another perspective could be that I could learn something while ON this beach?

Wow, what an incredible view! I am soooooo jealous! (Sitting here in my winter coat, gloves, scarf, and uggs…) If they had burritos and carne asada fries nearby I would be on the next flight there!

See, what’s interesting about this story is that this is the time when I expect you to invite me over there. You know, I have hookups in the Singapore business community, right? I actually think I see my friend’s rowboat docked to the left there.

@Eric – You are def welcome to come over here. Hookups in the Singapore business community? If I had a dollar for every time I heard that… I would have like… 2 dollars by now.
