current life

already 2 months training in the hotel, what I get besides experience is...friendship.

got more people to hang out with now besides Jin. (wont feel gay anymore)
past 4 weeks, I played badminton once a week with them. 2 to 3 hours a day. my badminton skill is improving now. finally. twisted/ pulled muscle few times though, followed by carrying heavy luggage.


for the past 1 and half month, I see more prostitutes in my life than before. both near my work place and where I stays. now kind of use to it already, wont over react anymore. grown up? lol

OT twice due to heavy check out and heavy check in then once colleague MC.

First got a called by DM at 11pm when I was about to sleep. asked me start working at 5am cause heavy check out. I suppose to work at 7am. woke up at 4, took taxi to hotel. claim it back from hotel.

Second time, heavy check in. working midnight shift. but been asked to start working 2 hours earlier. so, 9pm to 7am.

Third time, I suppose to work from 11am to 7pm. Slept at 2am, got morning call from DM at 6.20am. ask to take over operator and be in hotel as fast as possible. woke up, shower and fast walk to MRT station. fast walk to hotel after that and reach hotel by 0705. (power sial)

reach there DM say, you can go home already. one staff already stand in for operator. but too late, so I just work in between operator, reservation and concierge. I work till 7pm that day. 4 hours sleep, 12 hours work.

the latest will be I work at the wrong shift, suppose to be 3-11 B shift but instead, I went to work at 11am. ended up volunteer to OT 4 hours and finish working at 11pm. 12 hours again!!!


finally, got my code for the system and started to do check in, check out. feel more complete being in the front office department. now, I can assist guest's request immediately even when I am in the concierge counter.

started to face some tough guests, but will do my best to be as professional as possible.

now, I got more duties, more responsibilities, more stress, more challenging....but I am READY!!!

but my report still hanging there, wish I could just do my internship and graduate without needing to do report and project.

got these photos at one night after finish working while on my way to MRT station. its full moon!!! and no, its not the sun, just street light. so galaxy lookalike.

Dead By Sunrise

when you are in this blog. the song you are listening, does the voice seems familiar to you?

yes, it is the shouting in Crawling. it is the voice of Chester Bennington.

Mike Shinoda got his Fort Minor.

Chester have his Dead By Sunrise together with Ryan Shuck and Amir Derakh since 2005.

the album Out of Ashes suppose to be released on 2006, but Chester put his priorities in Linkin Park's Minutes to Midnight.

but now, it is ready featuring the single "Crawl Back In"



the songs you are listening to is my favorite, Give Me Your Name.

enjoy!

rock on Chester!!!

new friends

after gone through my internship for 1 month, I have met many new friends from the hotel. majority of them are from Malaysia, so is easier to get along with them.

on one off day, I followed Nicole and Fiona to Merlion Park. I've been there before during day time, but it was my first "night" to see Singapore night view due to previous curfew.

the famous bling bling liu lian, Esplanade

after 1 "night out", few weeks later is one of my Duty Manager, Sharon's Deepavali open house. Not many turn up due to shift work, only few of us meet up at hotel and go to her place by bus. Raining heavily when we were in the bus nad took us nearly 1 hour to reach the interchange.

by the time we reach her place, we were all wet and hungry. (I never eat anything for whole day. been sleeping half of the day due to night shift)

we reach there close to 8pm, we departed from hotel at 5.30pm. in between we missed 2 busses at interchange. John reach earlier than us with his motorbike after finishing his work at 7pm
