for the last 2 days, been pretty good, but the timing was a bit wrong you see. i did mention in my prev prev entry that im working in the morning shift. have to reach the hotel by 6am, the cab will fetch me at 5.10am. i have to wake up like 4.30am, which the maids are still enjoying their sleep and dreaming of being screwed by the owner. anyways, i managed to survive, with the help of my mum. i rely on her since young, my alarm clock i can say. cos even the fire alarm cant wake me up. really. =)
just to keep you updated on my mornings. first day which was monday. feeling really refreshed, but i dont know why am i feeling that way. got into cab and reached hotel. work work and work. going in and out of the laundry, almost every part of the hotel. oh btw, something corked up that morning. some small arguments over small matters happened early in the morning.
after work, i wanted to get to marina mandarin for the cheesecake. fortunately, i called before i go to enquire on the cakes cos the hotel was already closed down. erm, closed as in undergoing those hotels multi-million dollar refurbishment kinda thing. but anyway, yeah i didnt get anything then. so decided to go to raffles hotel. which was quite dumb.
oh yes, next time when you are going to raffles hotel, dont ever believe that freakin' direction sign at the elevator. i followed the direction it pointed to, and walked passed swissotel, then the peacock alley, then raffles the plaza, then raffles city esprit, then crossed the road, then to raffles hotel. it was really retarded. cos i only realised that you can actually cut through raffles city to raffles. so, yah, i didnt know at first.
went quite a number of rounds, round raffles hotel. kinda lost my way cos i didnt know that raffles hotel was that huge. old, haggard, classic, messy, confusing. i went rounds and rounds to get to the main lobby. god damn, there are 2 entrances to the hotel, one at north bridge, the other at beach road. i ended up at the north bridge one and assumed thats the main one. so turned and turned, hoping to see the lobby appearing infront of me. but it didnt, it was louis vuitton. dammit.
walked, and took about 20mins i guess to reach the lobby. hung around the THOS Raffles. then got my stuff at the concierge and went to raffles hotel gift shop. got myself a bookmark golf tee and a postcard. really nice. and i went off, using the short cut through raffles city. sigh.
okay, enough for monday. more to come for todays. here you go!
morning shift. took the hotel-booked cab, and i saw something shining whenever it passes the street lamps. so took a look, and saw a nametag. it was a nametag from conrad, picked up and decided to return it after work since its so near. reached ritz..
was drizzling after work. walked to conrad to return that nametag. then i saw this really nice afternoon tea at oscars. anyway, i went off after that.
no cheesecakes from marina mandarin, went to panpac to get it. rich cheesecake and topped with a gigantic strawberry. btw, i felt damn guilty after something happened there. sigh. i really thank the person for helping, but ended up scolded by the manager i think. sigh.
home sweet home... =)
ive got something to talk about. but dont wish to continue cos this entry is really long. so, alright. laters.
have a good day ahead!
