coincidence?

I wonder if it is coincidence or what, but they are a few ppl in the hotel which reminds me of my dear friends. There is this one guy who reminds me of Long Xiang, he looks like Long Xiang, talks like Long Xiang well maybe a bit softer and looks like a girl too just like Long Xiang hahahaha and he tells me that alot of people tells him that he looks like a girl. By the way this is also the same guy which the people in the hotel thinks is my brother coz they think we look alike -.- too bad i didn't take a picture of him today coz my phone no battery.... and today was his last day. Everytime they see me, they will ask, where is your twin sista? who is bigger you or him? -.- sien...

Then there was this other guy who reminds me of Huey Teck. But he is the older, fairer version of Huey Teck. A very quiet guy and speaks only chinese. hahahaha he behaves like Huey Teck too! i mean from that one day that i met him la. Very quiet, deep in thought and only smiles..sometimes... i dunno whats happening to me, maybe i miss my friends too much.

And then, alot of people say i look like someone they know. 3 people has already said i look like someone else and asked if i have a sister or something -.- i suppose this world's population is getting too much that faces has to be repeated hahahahaha oh and another chef thought i was the sister of this other trainee too (different from the one i mentioned above) *and this time i took his picture ;)* but i still dun think i look like him. they kept teasing us like " eh you dengan dia adik-beradik kah? muka macam sama saje?" then they roared out laughing a hearty laugh. haih...its his last day too, one by one the trainees all leaving, one by one familiar faces are gone....its gonna feel strange and weird from now on..got to depend on myself from now on!

Day 1

First day of work wasn't exactly exciting, it was scary actually. First day already they throw me at Daily Treats, equipped with nothing at all and decided to let me fend for myself. I suppose its the same in every hotel, but i would really appreciate it if they would give me a basic guild line on what to do. Like maybe just teach me how to make juices, and i will gladly stay there you know? but no... Anyway i made a lot of mistakes, on the pancake and waffle thing, guest were not very happy *yikes* kept fumbling up orders coz i kept asking the seniors how to do this and that =( and finally it was closing time, i was like *yippee!!* and we kept everything back in the store. But it doesn't end there, Kitchen department is a series of challenges. BOH, here they call it heart of the house (HOH) walao...i was so lost, seniors were so busy they had no time to instruct us around, but not only that, they didn't instruct us to do anything yet they get angry when we stand there and do nothing. not that we didn't ask for work, we did, we just got scolded >.< come on, what happen to buddy system? but anyway, things got better after lunch, kitchen is fun, if you know what to do. I dun mind the chef scolding all the time, coz i know he doesn't mean it. All i dun like is being lost, not knowing anything yet they expect you to know everything. I dun mind busy, i just hate idling there with nothing to do. If what seniors meant by "hell" is busy, i really dun mind. As long as i know what to do and i'm not lost with ppl constantly pushing me around. But one thing, i think my performance was great, for someone who came in first day with nothing, gained alot by the and of the day. Made loads of different types of sandwiches, but omg...the madness and the lost feeling is going to come back soon since the menu is 2 days cycle....oh boy~
