I told myself that if I continue dragging this on, my blog's never gonna be done.
So, I decided to spend that one hour doing up this blog instead of watching a dvd.
Finally, I finished setting up this journal.
HELLO MY DEARS!
I had already typed a super duper long post longggg time ago but didn't post it because I had some issues with the photos. However, I realised that there's no point posting that entry so I'm gonna type a new one now.
Mmmm been in Beijing for about 1.5 months & I guess I'm starting to really settle in, starting to like this place. Initially I couldn't wait to get back to Singapore, to my comfort zone, but now I don't really wanna go back to Singapore just yet. Perhaps the thought of facing people I'm not quite ready to face yet scares me? Ahhh well.
I'm facing a problem with my Visa, might have to head back to SG to apply for a new one in July. It's not confirmed yet though, but let's hope I don't have to waste hundreds of dollars on flying back just to get a piece of paper.
Life in Beijing has been...alright. I've been receiving hotel training for the past 1.5 months at a training centre because the hotel is still undergoing some finishing touches, but I should be officially entering the hotel in the coming 2 weeks. I'll be working on the Executive Floor as a Club Lounge Agent (something like Guest Relations), and I really can't wait to officially start work.
The weather here has been erratic, but generally it's dry & cold. My knuckles look like I've been through a boxing match because the skin split & started bleeding a while back. Oh and MY COMPLEXION IS GOING DOWN THE DRAIN!! (wails) Someone sponsor me facialwashthatconcentratesonpreventingpimplesimprovesdryskin&fruitymasks can? =(((
The only local food I've tried so far are Peking Duck & Jian Bing, which seems like Prata+Egg but tastes & looks different. OHOH and I've tried fried Scorpion! It tastes like Ikan Billis without salt. Lol. I can't quite bring myself to eat rodents yet though. (shudders violently)
There are times when I really wanna scream and throw things at everyone (like when the bus is bloody packed to the MAX but people still squeezesqueezeSQUEEZE and you feel that your chest is ready to be crushed but they refuse to stop squeezing onto the bus) but at the end of the day, I'm glad I came for this attachment. Cliche as it might sound, I've already learnt so many things that I'm damn sure I wouldn't had been able to study about back in NP.
For some odd reason, this blog entry seems quite...formal/somber? Hahaha I wanted to type a light-hearted entry but oh well. I have so many thoughts on my mind, so many things to say, so many photos to show everyone; but for now, I'll just end here & hopefully blog again soon =)
Miss you all, very very much. (hugs)
P.S Happy Fifteenth, Dom the doat! =D
