having faith

training in an overseas country is always a logistical challenge. we're so used to the kind of facilities we have back home. it's always an exercise of faith when you're overseas, and when things don't seem to be the way you want it to be from the onset. It's an exercise of faith and patience. Faith that they will get it right, as you've provided the info early, and patience- especially when things get chaotic, to allow things to unfold naturally, and order to restore itself. it's easy to lose your cool and be totally Singaporean, and rush the process. it's not worth it i think, better go with the flow, and be cool as a cucumber, rather than be the ugly Singaporean. yes- we are task driven and want results, but we should be reasonable not to appear too demanding, and risk stepping on other nationalities toes. When in Rome, do as the romans...
