wee here to update again :)
so ytd work at ritz again.. was some dunno wat annual dinner.. got alot foreigners (think most of them r turkish) o n theres quite alot of vips there too (like wat my manager john said: all de events in ritz carlton r for vips.. not vips.. go outside.. or sth along dat line la)
anw john was briefing us in de ballroom.. den he was talking abt balancing ur silver tray with 2 hands.. so he said "god gave u 2 hands for a reason".. den jus as he was saying that.. de projector was flashing some video for de muslims to break their fasting later on.. n guess wat? de words there r "god is great".. damn funny la.. me n hongwei was laughing non-stop..
so ya it was a halal buffet dinner.. no alcohol was served as well so was quite slack.. only nid to clear de glass n plates.. but de guests toda sibei kiasu la.. they brought tupperwares to da bao de food home.. n its nt 1 or 2.. u can c guests carrying many many plastic bags filled with tupperwares of food when they left.. -.-
event finished damn early.. so after clearing up still nid to help carry tables chairs n extensions to ballroom for later's event.. according to them its dunno wat ferrari de.. so ya i go shower n makan 1st.. later work at 5pm..

jus a quick post.. past few days no mood blog..
k so putting de sad stuff aside.. shall recap on this week..
firstly mon.. went for work depressed at 1st.. slightly cheered up later on.. worked on 2nd floor for dat day.. nt really considered slack but easier compared to ballroom.. n de manager gave us abt half hr more money ^_^
den tue.. went back sch 1st.. den went meet aizat n mannan.. still quite depressed though.. mannan asked us bring laptops go queensway library with de intention of dotaing at 1st.. but various factors like no seats.. no plugs n cant connect to internet etc caused us to waste our time in de library watching mannan's dota replay instead -.- after dat jus anyhow walked around de nearby ntuc while de 2 of them played around with de f1 figures.. emo-ed all de way home after dat..
wed n thur rotted at home since no work.. den today overslpt abit.. almost late.. lucky got father to fetch me halfway to work.. today was supposed to set up outdoor event place for f1.. theres 5 of us.. helped load things into truck.. den 3 of them went off with truck.. left 2 of us keep an eye on de remaining stuff.. this went on for 4 hrs or so.. thus my morning was very boring n slack.. (9-2 including lunch) after dat went with de last truck of things to set up.. finished at around 4 or so.. den managers came to inspect.. so slacked around for half hr.. after dat walked back to ritz carlton.. manager ask us slack for half hr.. go makan den sign out.. so in total 9-2 n 4-5.30 was slacking.. (do ur math) yes 6.5 hrs of slacking.. means i only actually worked for 2 hrs today.. somemore this was considered outdoor catering.. so additional of $10 given.. $_$ haiz if only everyday at work was so slack.. :p

ok here to update again..
ytd worked at ritz carlton.. got a wedding going on.. its some bigshot wedding la.. we nid stickers to enter de ballroom.. police were there.. n got alot vips present too.. lucky i only start work from 5.30.. de whole ballroom's decoration was fantastic.. meaning nid alot of work to put them up (confirmed by hongwei.. whom started work early)
shall nt say much abt de event.. de food looks n smells gd.. too bad cant eat.. den was quite busy.. nid clear n serve 4 tables.. n i tio alot of wtf scoldings.. for eg i was standing close to de pillar.. den this manager called simon (i doubt he will read my blog.. even if he reads i dun care) came along n scold me ask me dun lean whn i didnt.. sibei wtf la.. alot other examples i lazy state.. in total he whole night like picking on me can le.. o ya hongwei kena de vip table.. de parents' table even.. sibei suai la dat guy.. so ya after event ended cleared de ballroom.. quite abit of saigang la.. carry tables n chairs etc.. but luckily go off work at 12.. den dun nid to help set up place for nxt event..
today.. woked up quite late.. den lazed around at home for awhile b4 going to khatib area for paintball.. its at bottle tree park.. got slightly lost with my terrible sense of direction.. so was around half hr late.. met my cousin there n got a slight briefing..
de game objective is to shoot down a cone at de opponent's territory.. den grab a styrofoam brick n a flag in our territory n bring them back to our base.. ofc we will b shooting at each other at de same time as well.. whoever's shot will drop de brick/flag he is holding n need to go back to our base b4 "respawning" out again.. so its quite similar to counterstrike in a sense ba.. o ya theres actually a centre line which we cant cross over.. so theres no rough play..
lets c.. played a total of 3 rounds.. won all 3 cuz my team got my cousin + another guy (i dunno his name) de 2 of them r quite experienced alr.. whereas almost all de rest of us r 1st timers.. for all 3 rounds my cousin asked me to stay down behind as backup while he chiong in front secure de flag n brick.. found it quite hard to aim.. ofc theres no sniping scope.. n i need to aim high to make de bullet fly all de way to de other side.. it was drizzling too.. so our mask fogged up after some time.. making it even more difficult to aim -.-
only tio 1 shot on my right arm n another indirect shot at my left waist there.. reason will b cuz i was playing hum all de way.. didnt really dare to charge in front.. shot down 2 guys though.. :p
in total paintball was fun! asked my cousin to jio me along if theres a game nxt time.. but cant play this often.. $50 pax sibei ex la..
