Lately, I've been wandering around town. Somehow, I ended up at one of the universities at Academic City in Dubai. As I walked up the stairs, I stared out of the window and looked around. Lo and behold! All I could see was sand, sand, sand, everywhere I turned! It reminded me so much of my alma mater, that I resolved, if I ever wanted to pursue my Masters, I will definitely do it in the UK. 

What was I doing there? Well, I shared with the students on my experience of simulation, how addictive it is. Being students, they have the innate ability to be cynical. They raised their eyebrows, smiled the Johnny Depp way and said, "Yeah, Jean. We think it's addictive too." 

Expecting this response, I created a special video about my favourite job - dynamic simulation! Just to entice them into loving simulation, which encompassed 99% of my life for the past 3 years. 

The soundtrack is from Chopin's Fantasie Impromptu No.4 in C-Sharp Op.66. Conducting simulation is just like this song. We need to have high imagination, trust our gut, be alert and observant. Above all, we need to be calm and level-headed. 

This, is a tribute to all my mentors who taught me that the way to excel in something, is through asking and enjoying the process, each and every step of it. Thank you to all who made it possible!  Enjoy!
