Principles of Corporate Finance

I will join to a class of corporate finance from December. I look for it. Because I never learn it until now.

I bought a class book that it's the Principles of Corporate Finance at Amazon. Of course, it was translated Japanese. But I bought another one in English. I want to learning it in English.

Gifts from Thai friend

Sawadee kap. Sabaidee mai kap?

Last week, Thai engineer came to Japan for a business. When I go to Thailand, He takes me out for a dinner every time.

He passed me gifts. It's a glass ship, fragrant candle and candle stand. It made me very happy.

His schedule was quite tight, so I couldn't go out dinner this time.

My Last Lesson in English

Henry who is my English teacher will go back United States next month. So yesterday was my last lesson. I studied English about two years.

I think that I will keep to learning English in the future.

Thank to Henry and Anna!!

English

In the classroom discussions, I said that exit strategy of start-up ventures have continued to rise since Sarbanes-Oxley Act. I knew about it on the web. But I didn't have the fact. Usually, we must have a fact with comments at the classroom discussions.

My classmate helped me, he searched the fact from NVCA. Yes, this website is in English.

About 70% information and 80% communication use English on the web.

I think anew English of need.

This loan is my 5th loan.

WEB2.0 Election

Barack Obama knows well enough web2.0 that he join Facebook, it's a famous story.
He was supported a lot by Facebook users.

I felt that understanding web2.0 requires not only business but also politics.

Time Management

I guess that time management is very important.

I go to work and school. My school is on the web. So moving time is nothing.
But it needs to study a lot of time.

Almost all classmate have a job and maybe they are very busy for work. But they join with a good discussion everyday on the web. Why do they join it everyday?

At first I think that they have a lot of knowledge and experience, because they are older than me.
But I was wrong. If there is good knowledge, they say high level things. We search and think new things, we do the same things.
I noticed that the different is time management.

My friend wedding

I went to wedding. I met him at high school. He'd been always smartly dressed. So, this wedding was very nice atmosphere restaurant.

When we were students, I went to trip with him and other friend to Las Vegas, Hawaii and whatnot.
