Bro Wedding and Raya week.

Many ppl said that my blog is totally WORDINGS .. yeah i agree too. Everything I spit out here is instant from my thought, I never bother to add any pictures. Phew, last week was my so called mid term break. 1 week, definitely not enough ! Kinda busy week for me, As i need to do my report, friend's farewell, bbq, bro's wedding and so on ... until now, I just done what required in my report. I need to add on a lot of things. Since I am aiming A for this report.


Talk about my brother's wedding. This is the first time I become 'HENG DAI' or so called brother. Early in the morning have to go to the bride's house to literally TAKE her away. Sung love song, played a few game and have to give ANGPAO to the sister before they let us take that bride. Meanwhile in the evening, suddenly appointed become event coordinator. Have to take care of all the wine, liquer, and beer during the wedding dinner. As well as assisting the DJ in the disc. Overall during the dinner I didnt have the time to eat much. Have to entertain the guests.. Heheh,managed to grab a few glasses of chivas on the rock. A bit drunk during the end of the dinner. But overall, fun also being a HENG DAI.


Earlier on this week, had a bbq during morning. Even i'm suprised when firstly heard, but its okay since it is at waterfall area. Gone there just to give face, but ended up with faces that I dont really wanna see hahahaha. Not that familiar with them during secondary school also. But luckily few of my braders are there so I am not bored to dead LOL. Meanwhile, my friend Kwai Ling had gone of to Reading last weekend. Managed to meet up with her at least for one last time for a year or two.


Went to sing K also last week, with fellow braders fai, aaron, william and suprising ah cai. This time he no FFK me already. hahahaha ..luckily i do quite a lot of my report and now i do not need to worry actually. Just touching up the remaining ones and ... YAY i'm done with it !!!

20 years old ... a new begining?

To think that I'm 20 this year.. means this is the last year for me being a teenager. There's lot of pro and cons. Back to college last tuesday, talked with Ms. Merry, one of my favourite lecturer. Agree with what she said, it's never too late to study. She also told me about some of the seniors who are abroad and have stable income.

Inspired by what she told me. Think that I really go abroad to work for a year or two. I just need to find the right time to talk with my brother to see. Because in HK, their living cost ia higher. Think that if I manage to save up. I will get quite a lot too. And I do have advantages in terms of language. Yes, I DO impress guests from HK during my internship. So why dont give it a try?

Hmmm... My birthday for this year, 20. Felt okay with it, I'm not an attention grabber. I do not hope for any big big things or anything special from my parent actually. But i felt lucky enough to have my classmates and few of my close friends. Got an album from my classmates, although dont know who are the few who gave me. But still, I'm glad.

Last but not least, I must remind myself for my oath for this semester.

6 Days left and ... promise for my semester 7

It's already 6 days left and .. omg, it was around 130 days when firstly here in Sabah ... but what a blink of eye .. for this 2 days .. i will be working night as i'm attached with mr.johny lee who is a night manager for front office .. what he basically do is printing reports, market segment for the next day .... a darn lot of paperwork but what i can do basically is just ... watching him haahhaa ...

Perhaps it's good for me because i can do less work as i do not have any mood to work at all, 6 days more and I'll back to Sunway for the better good. Thanks god that I had saved up my offdays earlier during my training in bellman and operator section. To be more precisely I only have 3 more working days hwere in Nexus Resort. Owh yeah, this Sunday i'll head to Gaya Street Sunday market. Sapu some things for my friends and family and not to forget my lovely niece Gloria who is currently 7 years old.

I think i will buy some gift here for my brother's official wedding as well. Since he don't like any alcoholic drinks and I bet my sense of fashion is totally different from him as well.


AND


I think i want to make some promise here so that I can see it in the future and I WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN


- Pay more attention in study
- I want to make my semester 7 the best moment of my life in DIPLOMA IN HOSPITALITY AND TOURISM MANAGEMENT
- Time to find some chick, I guess ..
- Be more proactive toward my surrounding
- Be patient and do not buy anything related to MODEL FIGURE for this semester
- Appreciate more about my family
- Time to enrich myself with more knowledge regarding to cooking, bartendering
- I PROMISE TO PREPARE THE REUNION DINNER FOR 2010 CHINESE NEW YEAR
- Exercise more as I've lost weight during my internship.
- I WANT TO GIVE OUT MY EVERYTHING FOR THE EXAM OF SEM 7. I AM AIMING FOR STRAIGHT As

How a very strong headed young man turned into 'just another normal person' during working? but I AM DIFFERENT

Long time never update this pathetic blog already .. guess in Front Office department there's no any hidden place for me to online .. managed to online only during my offday at Sunday .. come think of it, it's been 20 days since my last off. Since i've decided to save my offday so I can have my off later on.

Oh hell yes .. 12 bloody days left and

IM BACK TO SUNWAY FOR THE GREATER GOOD

But what came into my mind is .. how a young man with a very strong determination turns into 'just like someone else' ? Well, during the first few weeks when i started my internship .. what comes into my mind is .. I'm in a hospiality industry where GUEST/CUSTOMER comes first and by hook by crook you have to act like a professional.

But what I've observed here in this 4 months .. i felt very sad for this resort, i mean WHERE is the professionalism and the standard for a 5-star hotel? Not I'm insulting but in fact it is the truth, if i'm one of the guest here for sure i'll complain like there's no tomorrow already.

Yeah, people in the higher level of management manage to talk/serve the customer with courtesy but some in the lower management really makes me sad. I've encountered someone new in the department where i'm in and believe it or not? there's no 'magic' word such as please, thank you , may i ? used by him. How the heck he managed to pass the interview? Is my hotel really lack of people until they just simple take any person to use? or he's a lucky one who passed the interview? Communication between internal staff also one of the worst thing i've see.. a guest who called for a luggage down service waited for almodt half an hour until he pissed off and carry his luggage for check-out himself. I really felt sorry for the guest.

Yeah and among the colleagues, they're just asking trainees to clean their unfinished shits ... why do i say how a person with a strong determination turns into 'just another normal person' ? There's no justice at all in this organisation. Imagine rm20 tips divided into 3 where 2 person takes rm 4 and the balance take by the leader? What the eff is this? Not to mention that a person being money minded or greedy, but WHERE is the justice? Everyone needs motivation in the sense of money or psychology.

I've gone through all these shits and i really think that? Why the heck i need to work with my life when i do not get the appreciation and motivation and SALARY? But again, after i think carefully ...

I AM DIFFERENT FROM OTHER PEOPLE

I show professionalism to each and every guest i encountered, and I offer help as much as I do. I believe that working with hospitality line we need to show courtesy no matter what situation we're in. And I'm different from 'just another normal person' !!! Therefore, I will complete this internship with my best skills. But what makes me feel good when i'm working is I hear words of appreciation from guest and this is the motivation for me when i'm down with all these pathetic emotion.

I am not saying all the person in my organisation but some of them I do really appreciate working with them and I am seriously respect them for their professionalism.

ugh .. omg 35 blardy days left

Hmm .. 35 days left. well, today is the left one of my boss left Nexus Karambunai ... after hell lotsa shits and politics in Fnb department ... Well, working here really makes my mind think wider and .. there's damn lot of unfair things in hotel.

Sometimes I thinked, being a boss and yet given F words for hours everyday. Kesian see my boss being F-ed by Restaurants manager. And the working hour is like .. 7am to 11pm everyday? with freaking lot of paperwork such as evaluation, staffing, monthly promotion, profit and lost account and other more ...

Now, they are talking beside me and I' writing this post. This is one of the thing that I won't forget in Nexus Karambunai. And ... I'm here to remind my self not to being arrogant when I'm in the higher level of management no matter which industry I'm in.

It's late and I'm gonna follow my boss back

42 days left .. I guess my mind is blurring me again

42 days left, but I can't wait to go back to sunway ... seriously, counting each days pass is a pain ... what is your feeling when every morning u woke up u doesn't have the mood to go to work? Next week is my last week in room service department ... which i don't really have problem with and there's approx 1 month 1 week more in front office department.

Seeing each one complete their internship is also a pain in the arse. During my first 1 1/2 month in Nexus, me and Kah Fai accompany Hans and Errol leavin Nexus, and tomorrow is John's last day in Nexus .. I've been seriously affected by their leaving, thus I can't concentrate with my job for a period of time.

I'm not acting tough but .. I DO really miss things in Sunway and back in my hometown, Bentong. I miss my bed, my gangs, the lifestyle there, the food there and my parent. After I graduated from my high school, my parents became more to my 'friend' where I can talk casually and sometimes share my feeling with them although they are nagging me sometimes.

I've lived outside Bentong after my high school BUT this is the first time I never see my friends and family members for such a long time.
