wow! this week is an exciting week for me. working for 2 days and cannot stand the job. my legs pain like hell thanks to the heels i wore. my left hand is pain too. on wednesday, i work at fullerton hotel. that is the first time i work there and the first day of my work. i have no experience of serving in hoel so everything is fresh for me. i did not know that i have to divide the food and serve to everyone of them. so i have the briefing by the captain and he took all of us to the different place to collect the food and even show us how to serve the food. actually my partner is jiayen, my sis friend, but later chang to a guy who do not have any experience and is also a first timer. so i told the captain and i was being transfer to serve the vip. everything is serve properly in the dish. so i need not do any cutting and dividing. but the plate is heavy and i have to carry 2 at a time. very heavy and added pressure to my hand. and then when we serve, we have to do everything in a procedure, even when we walk out of the room. the whole thing ended at 10.30pm. then we started washing all the things and when the vip left, we went to do the ballroom, arranging the chairs and tables. pulling chairs and tables to the ballroom. so i was walking here and there, running here and there like a mad cow. and everything ended at 11pm. so i manage to go home early while jiayen have to wait as she had yet to finish the ballroom with the others.

then yesterday, went to work at raffles hotel. second day working. still not enough experience. i know a friend ji qiu who work there, also from hr. she bring me in and we work together. but we were being separated for different job. but i know a guy but do not know his name. i think he's from china from the tone he spoke. he's very kind, teach me everything even the cutting of fish. he even told me what i should do. he even help me carry things. he help me carry the dirty plates away and also help me get the food and plates. he's really a helpful guy. yesterday, he told me to serve 1 table only while he serve 2. then end up 1 drink server help to serve the next table. so i have a lighter job. but i have to clear all the dirty plates and bowl as quickly as possible. and to replace the plates. at one point, while i was collecting the plates, about 10 of them, my hand suddenly gave way and my hand relaxes. the whole plates on the service tray almost drop on the floor. i quickly knee down and got hold of the plates. it was lucky that the plate did not drop and break. it was a close shave. as for the cutting of fish, the fish head just do not want to break. i manage to break the tail but not the head. i have a hard time serving the fish. it was really a tough dish to divide. but luckily i manage to divide all. that time i was perspiring, feeling so hot. so everything ended in a full stop. i finish serving all the dishes and i can relax a little. the guest were enjoying themselves, dancing and singing. i stood at the side and watch them. so yesterday, i knock off at 11.30pm and i was on my way home.

on tuesday, i went out early with hasyimah to buy skirt, but she last min tell me that she could not work at the hotel. so she quit. i was left alone. that time, i was fused with anger, leaving me behind. then we went ice-skating with levina they all. at first is meet lingyeow at dobby ghaut but end up did not meet. we missed the train, which we could take but hasyimah say not this. so we reach there around 2pm which we should meet at 1pm. so we were totally late. then we went skating. the place is really cold. i fell thrice or even 4 times. but is ok for me. but when i look at jhomel, he is so caring. he help hasyimah and levina. holding on to them when they were about to fall. holding their hands when they cross the path which do not have any barrier. he's so caring and helpful. really unlike him. so we skate for 3 hours and later went to buy something to drink/ eat. and we were on our way to home sweet home.
