*What I've been up to*

So as usual,
I've just been busying with my school work/assignments.
Attending Student Coucil meetings.
Making posters for theme days, events, and etc.
*That's my job as a Publicity Officer.. =)*

I've just finished watching Season 1 of "Desparate Housewifes".
I am now almost halfway through Season 2,
while still continueing to watch "We Got Married".
Just finished episode 50.
*What can I say, I love my dramas...hahaha*

Other that those boring details,
I attended some other activities.

On the 07-09-09,
There was a swimming competition between Sun-U and Monash,
and I went to volunteer for about 6hrs of community service.
Najwa and Tram joined too.
After the competition me & Tram headed to her place for a swim!

Today, 11-09-09,
I went to this event called the "Job Shadow Day".

It is an event which allows selected students to follow a mentor,
mostly head manager of a department,
to experience a 3hrs+ of the field & job
of a certain industry/department of the Sunway Group.
About 90 to 100 students applied for it,
and I happen to be one of the lucky 40+ that got selected.

So today,
all the selected students gathered in the Sunway Club
before separating to different departments.
I got to experience the Banquet department
in the Sunway Resort Hotel & Spa!
Once again,
I was lucky to get the department that I wanted.
Besides me, there is another girl,
which was in the same group as me.

My mentor was a Banquet Manager.
He showed us lots of really cool, grand, and simply fabulous places in the resort!
I fell in LOVE with the resort!
It was like a dreamplace!

First, we saw another part of the hotel which most of us,
visitors and customers have never seen.
It was like the hotel's staff's offices which are like connected to the hotel,
yet never seen by non-staffs.

Then he showed us the different floors of special conference rooms, event rooms, and etc!

I also had a great opportunity to join them for their daily meetings which consists of discussions of the things that has happened, is happening, and is going to happen.
Basically like things yesterday, today, and tommorrow.

After that,
the mentor was so generous to allow us to help ourselves
to a 5-star tea break!
I had English tea with cream & Aussie honey,
this chicken on a stick thing,
a potato round thingy,
a crispy seafood roll,
and lastly the awesome, mouth-watering
Chocolate Crème Brûlée!!!
that just melts in your mouth!
*Droools*

While eating,
he also told us how he gets opportunities
to meet Prime Ministers, celebrities, and VIPs!

After our wonderful tea,
we walked around to see more rooms and the grand ballroom!!!
it was amaZAzing!
He also brought us to the M.O.S!
*Ministry of Sound, Euphoria*
I learned that it's a smoke-free club,
with a vibrating dance floor,
special separate rooms and VIP rooms!!!
How cool can it get?!?

After that our time was up,
so everyone from all the departments went back to the Sunway Club for lunch,
then each groups had a little presentation on what we have seen, learned, and experienced.

Then, lastly everyone took a group picture and went on our own ways.

It is an experience I would always remember!
After today,
I felt like I want to be a part of the hospitality industry.
=D
