Update! lol

Finally can update my blog.. ARGH RAN OUT OF TITLES TO PUT! lol

Tuesday had this ballroom event by this TCC. No, not The Coffee Connoisseur, but Turkish Cultural Centre. lol   Anyways, it was a totally halal buffet, a first for me. Had quite a number of staff under me, some of which are new, i think 3 out of 6 of us are new... lol  During the briefing, the manager was saying "Last time I had so many new comers also no spillage that night, so I don't want ANY spillage at all tonight. You all have to use tray as it is a VIP event, but new comers put at most 2 glasses on your tray. If 2 glasses cannot, put one glass. And if you can spill with one glass of drink, I really got nothing to say." *raises up other hand* "God gave you 2 hands for something. Hold the glass la!" At that precise moment, purely out of coincidence, the AV personnel on the 2nd level is testing the muslim prayers video for them to break fast, but since it was a testing, there's no sound. BUT, there are SUBTITLES. And it says "God is Great"

Sorry if I had offended in anyway, but it was seriously hilarious at that point, all of us burst out laughing, even some malays amongst us also laughed.. xD

The buffet dinner was rather slack, cox there's no alcoholic drinks available for obvious reasons. So we just had soft drinks to ask, and to do clearing up.

Was told I had to do OT. Kena forced kind cox not enough seniors, so ask those senior but not so senior staff like me... -.-" Latest time of booking out OT for me: 3am. It was setting up of the next day's event, didn't know what it was at first, but know that it is super high class as table cloth, chair cover are all black. With a red cloth on each table. Later I knew why, the company involved is Ferrari, which main colour is red.  Its a product launch, and the AV personnel making the um, supports for the lights etc, took a long time as it was quite complicated. Usually only one lenght of the ballroom is used. This time its a huge square. 

Then the car involved was arriving, so we had to roll out the carpet, literally, for it to ride slowly into the ballroom without any mud or whatsoever. In the end, the carpet provided by the contractor are not wide enough and the tyres still kena the grass patch. But it was cool though, to see a expensive car driven slowly, looking at its interior etc.. But Ferrari is BAD, in reasons more than one.

Anyways, the set up outside and inside the ballroom used alot of boards and wood stuff, and lots of glue were involved. It was so strong at one point of time that everywhere in the 1st floor had glue smell. The workers just cut a silt on one huge can of glue, and just pour out the glue on the wood. I wonder how they tahan... Glue leh... D:

Reached home at 4am in a taxi.. Bathed then slept. [thats why I didn't update yesterday...] Woke up at like 8+am and prepared for work.......

Wednesday worked at 11am was super tired and while walking at Marina Square towards Ritz, walked and slept at the same time.. [Is it sleepwalk? xp] And knocked into a guy the moment I opened my eyes, brain was not working + inertia and rammed into the guy.. Apologised profusely and quickly went out of sight.. Reached and went to the multi purpose room on the 3rd floor to prepare for some lunch and forum thing by a travel magazine. It is a western set lunch, without the soup. So theres only appetiser, main course and dessert.  RCMS de GM is one of the guests, but whom didn't turn up for reasons unknown to me, but who cares? lol

The presentation and statistics presented were rather related to the tourism stuff I had learnt, so also listened to some of the presentation while keeping a lookout for needs of any guest...

Was quite happy and relaxed working for some reasons... :D

Anyways, when everything ended and then 8/10 staff had to be called down to the ballroom as there were last minute changes to the setting in the ballroom.. Sad.. Very troublesome... But I'm not one of the 8, lol..

Cleared the room slowly as there only 2 of us, a captain and a houseman. Then cleared extensions, one of the extensions, cox I didn't grip properly, dropped and smashed on my right foot. Worse, it bounced and smashed it again as if in a encore.

Very painful, but no visible swelling or blood clotting till now, which is like 12 hours already..

Either way, rubbed it for awhile before continue to clear the other extensions, then tables, then some chairs.. Afterwhich, we put some new settings like some slim tables etc for the next event at the rooms and soon it was 5pm. Changed into another uniform, which is also black, for the Ferrari event at the ballroom.. Since I perspired while doing those manual work, this uniform, which is like not so absorbent, immediately stuck on my skin. Feel even stickier...

Went to canteen and saw many TR03 peeps, Lilin and Marcus. They had came back from OC and slacking in canteen to get some rest as they had knocked off already. I asked Marcus "How did it feel to do set up on the rooftop at noon?" xp    Cox last night I heard some of the seniors saying they next day had to do set up in singapore flyer de rooftop at noon... sad...

Marcus gave me a very tired face.

Then he said he kena posted to TR03 as he missed the 1st timeslot.. I wonder got who will come to TR01.... D:

Asked Lilin more about our chalet etc.. 6pm then I went to ballroom.. Inside, was all glam etc.. 

Went into the briefing halfway through.. Then did alot of stuffs like preparing set up for our side station etc..

Event started and guests seated. My group has 3 guys, which one is new, plus 4 gals which 3 are new... D: Luckily later one more gal was added to our group who had qute substantial experience working.. So was rather relieved... lol... Its a western set again.. There were like appetiser, soup, fish, sorbet and main. Dessert buffet style...

Was pickup and clearing all the time.. In out wait in out wait in out.... time flies...xD

Soon midnight reached and went home! Finally have one rest day... but have to buy shoes etc.. -.-

But at least its a day gained.. :)
