My First Day of Official Job

18.July.2011

I already worked at Marriott for 10 days, though it was under Keystone Agency. Anyway, today is my eleventh working day and my first day of work for official job, which means I'll get paid for working today. I still don't have a contract for some reason. I haven't completed gathering my requirements, either. I am just way too lazy to get it done.

Today, I was assigned at The Hub by my coordinator but my captain asked me to serve at Grand Ballroom. I think the number of guests plays around 500 to 700 pax. Anyway, I was only assigned to two tables. I'm quite thankful that my tables aren't as full as the others. I have a couple of elders to guide, and I also need to assist the tables around me, as well as the guests at the buffet tables. I received a lot of thank you's today so I am quite happy. We poured water to the water goblets late or the guests just came in a bit too early so it was a mess with the water. We get it done anyway, so it's fine. I went to work by 15:00 and should be finished by 23:00 which is a fact that I don't really like. If I were to come in by 17:00, I will be signed out by 1:00 which is good because I will definitely get tip. It was a wedding by the way, so we'll definitely get a good amount. But unfortunately, I didn't participated in the closing tasks, so that's how it is.

By the way, the wedding reception is just so wonderful. It reminds me of Peter Pan Movie, where Wendy and Peter dances in mid-air with tiny fairies surrounding them. I'd like to have a wedding like that, as well. I'll make sure that It'll be more fairytale-like. I love the cake too although it was way too high for me. I'd like mine to be just a few layers. Well, they are rich so they can afford it. :)

Dreaming of the Past

16.July.2011

I want to run from the shadows of my past
It's a past that belongs to the two of us
A past overflowing with happiness
And once in a while comes a gust of sadness.

The time we spent is slowly disappearing
And being with you feels like a dream flowing
I used to cherish every second with you
Now, it's like a surreal dream that can't be true.

I remember no more the "me" around you
It was like she disappeared out of the blue
She's just a mere part of me longing for you
And, for the best, locked herself from all the sooth.

Who are you by the way? I know you no more
I do not remember the "you" from before
Your voice, your smile, how you become mad at me
I have forgotten all of you...all of it.

What have become of us now? I don't know too
Remembering is unneeded, we are through
We decided to take two separate ways
And parting is not a simple game we play.

It's what we choose: to be apart hereafter
It's for the best and will not make us suffer
So now, the past will only appear in dreams
For dreams don't come true, and pasts can't be redeemed.
