so im over and done with stuffs to do with shatec and the feeling isnt something so great about afterall. i still miss school, the yucky environment but i do love the trainers - especially that few of them who made a difference. i miss those days i can spend time with my classmates gossiping over stuffs and shouting at one another over assignments and i love discussions and group projects. it was damn fun and nice. finally, we went back to school today (but not the whole bunch of us anymore though) to submit our 15,000 words report. i tell you this report is a killer. i had to think of so many grandfather stories to write in the report in order to fill up that 15,000 holes. and good thing, i completed it way before i expected myself even though i was complaining so much and worrying like shit whn i was doing my internship... like "how? how ah? when will i ever complete that? it impossible... just... so... impossible..."
anyway, the celebrations and dinners are done on the first week, straight right after our internship. no doubt it was all fun but it did burn a hole in my bank account. like ive always said, its demoralising by just looking at it. so to make myself feel better, the thinking will go... "its once in awhile and... this time it will be the final time before everyone goes separate ways." not exactly that but we wont be meeting up as often as we can, partly because some are having great fun back home or overseas = holidays and some are going to further their studies next year. as for me... it will be the day i will enjoy the "best" in life. oh wells, i think i should try looking forward to it and have as much fun as i can. its again friends-making session and i hate it.
met up with nab today to submit the report and did it on behalf of our two other friends who are not in town. the submission is bad cos of the encounters with the admin department which works like wood, dead woodlog, tree trunk, tree roots! anyway, it was good seeing those trainers again and catching up with them. then i went to meet up with sujatha and sulaiman for submission whereas nab went home cos she had some guests. after submission, was there chatting with the trainers again and telling them how horrible my hotel was. hahahahah, just kidding. mandarin is a very good learning ground i swear. its better than anywhere else if you are a trainee. but if you are asking why i didnt join back as full-time which is FO assistant manager, thats because im tired of the one-year and yah, perhaps after the hotel is done with all the renovation works. theres too much to handle during this period because it is rather messy, here and there. aiya almost everywhere we run like chatterbox chicken without heads!
oh yes, i wanted to meet up with pattilicious to sing but shes got no money = your cousin here is damn broke leh. thats what she told me but if she were to save up her daily suppers and snacks plus cab fares, she could have booked the entire karaoke lounge, or even book a few outlets on different days and invite all of our family along. then we were supposed to go somewhere cheap, of which i was given the task to find out but i didnt because i was thinking of saving money too after spending a few hundreds over that one week. yes good food and fun equates to planting a bomb in the wallet. the temptation just never ceases. =(
btw, i was chatting with sujatha about her report. the story's very long so i shant elaborate more. she needed help desperately cos her report, guess she couldnt finish and didnt know what to write. anyways, when i told her to try dragging the entire story and write as much about her hotel as possible which should include the cultures and such, the convo went like that:
me: su, i think you should write about your hotel's culture and service standards. this will add more words.
su: my hotel no culture. all barbaric.
for last night, i laughed so hard and whenever i think about it, i will giggle to myself. this is shit and yes this is my friend. hahahaha, now when i review the message history and run through it, i will laugh crazily to myself. the thought of it is better than watching someone falling off from the bus! oh my god...
lastly, i managed to catch up with my cousin, charmaine lee, who has been flying around happily and yah, flying aeroplanes, helicopters and kites to all her cousins here. its very tough to meet up with her and whats worst when you cant even contact her on the very day we PLANNED to go out together? its extremely terrible lor but it has a price to pay as long as she gets LV from paris or Juicy/Coach/A&F/Hollister from USA. its gotta be more than just food yes? ha ha, flying to mumbai isnt that easy yeah? remember those days we fought for our lives at marriott. just bring out the spirit we had the last time la.
okay, i shall remember to upload some photos of my friend's sendoff last monday. very sad to see so many leaving and enjoying their freedom.
breakfast as early as 745am in the morning.
the seven-star graded sendoff team. all looked sleepy though.
till then, im going to have mcdonalds breakfast later! so happy! my greatest achievement so far during my break!
