Hello Monday. (night) Little late in posting this entry today, but I'm making my way through!!
I finally found my way back to the office today to process more terms and conditions, legal notes, policies, delivery info, etc. As dull it may seem, I actually didn't mind doing that today- having had experienced walking around 3 straight days to search for houseware at trade fairs, I can honestly say that I'd rather write another 10 pages of legal notes. My legs were so incredibly tired after walking the fairs that I could barely walk around at the weekend!
...I salute our company's merchandiser who had to walk for 2 additional days (Sat/Sun) at Gongzhou's- Canton fair (it's the biggest trade fair in China... trust me, I passed by it during the weekend not for walking the fair's purpose... and it's HUGE! It's like a few football stadiums put together....) He then had to travel back down south, nearer Hong Kong to attend a another trade fair at Shenzhen today (another city in China). All I can say is... my 3 straight days of walking around HK fairs is- nothing.
Whilst writing the "About Us" page for the heimaboutique website today, I thought back to the start of this blog and how I wanted to document my journey of sculpting this online business just like Julie's documentation of cooking all 500something recipes in 365 days in the movie Julie and Julia. Like Julie, I liked the idea of reaching an "impossible mission" with a tight deadline.I have to admit that even if this impossible deadline was not to be met as an end result, and that the online shop is not to be launched in time... just the documentation of my progress it's self will be a great achievement.
I don't know if any of you are familiar with blogging, but to do it everyday, and sometimes after work... it's 99% of the time the last thing you'd want to do. This time being one of them, as it's now 9.51pm, and all I want to do is sleep! Actually, I read on another blog today and there's something I totally agreed on- one of the hardest challenges of keeping a good blog is to stick-to-it and make it consistent. It takes SO MUCH WILL POWER!- a bit like going to the gym actually- you know it has positive outcomes, but the hardest part is making your way over there.
I'd like to say a big thank you once again to all my readers who keeps coming back to read my journey. Without seeing your clicks that my stat counter collects, I would have given up a long time ago! (I really do not have a lot of paitence for a lot of things)
The end note is- although blogging takes a lot of time and effort... I sure do encourage people to do it. I feel like it's a lot more meaningful than other social networking tools such as facebook and twitter.
Yay. Another post finished.
Sleep time!
Sorry, no prove reading today... apologies for spelling/ stuipd errors!
