Excited!!!!

[SONG] Shayne Ward - Stand By Me

Getting so excited!

I have a meeting with the General Manager of Raffles Hotel and the Director of Human Resource on Wednesday.

I hope to seal a full time position after my attachment with them. I think the GM and Director want to see me to follow up on my plans and to see how the training at the hotel is going. I hope it's nothing bad lol!

I've been thinking about what to say, how to express my sincerity and how to show that i'm serious about a future career with Raffles Hotel.

If all goes well, i hope to seal a deal with them asap.

My plans are as follows:

either take up a full time position in..

1) Catering Sales as a Wedding coordinator
2) Take up the Management Trainee Program
3) Sign a Full-time position in Front Office

Either path seems to have good prospects, however, catering sales and the management trainee positions are the ones that catch my eye.

My case is special cuz i'm not singaporean and as a canadian citizen, i need to earn at least S$1 800 per month to stay and work in singapore. That's why i've been so stressed, cuz it's just so hard to find a job that starts with a pay of that caliber.

During my full-time position, i plan to study part time @ APMI taking up my bachelor of arts in psychology with double majors in psychology and marketing management. The course outline and modules seem very interesting.

I hope all goes well!!

Wish me luck folks!

peace!

what a week!

the past 4 days have been wonderful. Got to relax, eat like hell, watch loads of movies and most importantly I got to spend it with nove. It was just great. I wonder when we would be able to spend such times again....

I haven't been so happy in a long time. It's been difficult to find someone to share each moment with but i'm lucky that i found someone! THX AMY, we both owe you big time =)

-

anyhoo...

We went to watch Vantage Point today (too lazy to post the poster up)

it was a bit weird.

It kept rewinding the scenes from each character. It made me a bit dizzy and by the end i was able to follow what each character was going to say.

Overall the story line wasn't THAT bad but it definitely could be much better. lol sounds a bit contradicting but ya...whatever! If your planning on watching it or anything just be mentally prepared alright?

-

On to a more serious note....

I just completed my future development proposal for my dad. It details my career path, future plans and furthering education details.

I'm quite contended with it and i hope he takes the time to read it as i have put quite a bit of effort into it. It totals 10 pages so ya..just imagine. I will be giving a copy to my HR manager tmr to show my sincerity to start a career with them, let's hope it works!

If i get what i want, i'm sure i'll be able to fulfill the plans in the proposal. I just need a chance and an opportunity!!!!

GOD HELP ME PLEASE!!

...i'm gonna go watch Hitman now..peace!

Excited

I had a great discussion with the Director of Catering Sales on thursday.

It seems there is a position available as a wedding coordinator. We discusses my future career path, interests and passion.

She was impressed and shocked when she heard how serious i was cuz i'm always so 'happy go-lucky' She also mentioned that i may be the right candidate to fill the position. I was quite happy with the outcome of our talk.

I'm having a meeting with HR on monday, so wish me luck. The Director said to refer her straight if there are any questions from HR, this made me very excited as she seems quite serious about me filling the position. I'll definitely bring up this issue with the manager and i hope that they will give me an opportunity to show my abilities.

all i need is a chance!!

I'm out..gonna watch TV with nove...peace!

Contended

[Song] Chris Brown - With You - Got Mad Love For This Song!!

The year 2008 is still in it's early beginning but i am happy to say that it has started off on a great foot!

With the transition from Banquet to Catering Sales things have started to brighten up. I kind of miss banquet though, cuz i get to have a free work out and be the IC (in-charge) of certain functions. However, Catering Sales is much more relaxing and i get to go on site inspections, sales calls, answer sales questions and much more other responsibilities - things that i look forward to do.

Banquet has taught me a lot of different setups and whatnots for catering sales, so when i get a call, i can not only visualize what the room would look like but i get to give suggestions and input on certain events. The kind of empowerment that the Director of Catering Sales gives me is far more then i expected and i'm loving every minute of it!

-

on to other things..

I'm very happy right now. Not because of catering sales but more to my personal life.

i don't wanna start publicizing but let's just say that i'm super happy and very glad to have met someone.

Wanna know more, then we'll talk in person okay? lol!

-

Some pictures to share!



I and Noverita @ Esplanade!



Bored in Banquet lol!



Left over Dry Ice from a wedding!

-

I'm gonna start up on my proposal for Raffles Hotel and well the rest of my life =)


so take care!

peace y'all!

Lyrics (Chris Brown - With You)

I need you boo
I gotta see you boo
And there's hearts all over the world tonight
Said there's hearts all over the world tonight
I need you boo
I gotta see you boo
And there's hearts all over the world tonight
Said there's hearts all over the world tonight

Hey lil mama, ooh you're a stunner
Hot little figure, yes you a winner, and
I'm so glad to be yours
You're a class of your own and
Ooh little cutie, when you talk to me
I swear the whole world stops
You're my sweetheart and
I'm so glad that you're mine
You are one of a kind, and
You mean to me what I mean to you
And together baby there is nothing we won't do

'Cause if I got you
I don't need money
I don't need cars
Girl you're my heart

And oh, I'm into you and
Girl no one else would do
With every kiss and every hug
You make me fall in love
And now I know I can't be the only one
I bet there's hearts all over the world tonight
With the love of their life who feel
What I feel when I'm with you, with you, with you, with you, with you... girl
With you, with you, with you, with you, with you... Oh girl

I don't want nobody else
Without you there's noone left, and
You're like Jordans on Saturday
I gotta have you and I cannot wait now
Hey lil shorty, say you care for me
You know I care for you
You know that I will be true
You know that I won't lie
You know that I will try
Be your everything
[ With You lyrics found on http://www.completealbumlyrics.com ]

'Cause if I got you
I don't need money
I don't need cars
Girl you're my heart

Oh, I'm into you and
Girl no one else would do
With every kiss and every hug
You make me fall in love
And now I know I can't be the only one
I bet there's hearts all over the world tonight
With the love of their life who feel
What I feel when I'm with you, with you, with you, with you, with you... ohhh
With you, with you, with you, with you, with you... Yeah

And I will never try
To deny that you are my whole life
'Cause if you ever let me go
I would die so I won't run
I don't need another woman
I just need you or nothing
'Cause if I got that
Then I'll be straight
Baby you're the best part of my day

I need you boo
I gotta see you boo
And there's hearts all over the world tonight
Said there's hearts all over the world tonight
They need their boo
They gotta see their boo
Said there's hearts all over the world tonight
Hearts all over the world tonight

And oh, I'm into you and
Girl no one else would do
With every kiss and every hug
You make me fall in love
And now I know I can't be the only one
I bet there's hearts all over the world tonight
With the love of their life who feel
What I feel when I'm with you, with you, with you, with you, with you... ohhh(girl)
With you, with you, with you, with you, with you... ohhh
With you, with you, with you, with you, with you...
With you, with you, with you, with you, with you...
Baby yeah

tiring 2 weeks

oh man..it's been a long 2 weeks.

Since last sunday, the 17th of feb, i've been out drinking every other day.

My cash flow has hit rock bottom and my alcohol intake is sucking the life out of me. I've been so tired with the lack of sleep and early shifts the next morning that i can't seem to stay awake.

I hope i get my cash soon time cuz i'm seriously gonna have no money to eat soon. On top of that, i'm in debt about 250 bucks..god dammit! And to think, i just got paid on tuesday lol! dammit, it's time to slow down and be a good boy...at least for the month of march haha!

Hence, i'm just ending this post off and saying goodnight to all =) peace!
