Good friday!!!

On Friday, our last class of term one was English, actually one can not say it was a class it was more presentation. But I was exited because we were supposed to end this term. From the beginning of term one I was thinking how I will spend my days here! First one month was difficult for me , because no friends around , did not like food in food court.With time my classmate started to open up and the food also became edible.

When I write or think my thought link sometimes travel around, so I have to afford to come back to main subject.

On that day only one topic was there. Its about Singapore is both food and shopping paradise. Proposition did well, they presented lots of video and photographs to support the topic , on other hand opposite team had only some points to say, thou the points were good. Here I want to say something about this topic , actually every one has their individual thought. I think what is the meaning of paradise, do we know about paradise. General view for us is very beautiful, no pain, no bad thing , only good thing , no hard life etc. For those who do not get a meal in a day,or do not have cloths in cold weather or any weather , for them this term is about any kind of food which can fill their stomach and any piece of cloth that cover their shame. So for Singaporean it may be the paradise because they are getting enough money to spend in out side food and shopping for cloths. As a foreigner I think twice when I go for shopping and go for a good healthy food ,surely you can eat food in food center, which I do not think very healthier.

Now I think I am becoming emotional, lets talk about that day, after finish the debate our mentor would able to gave us some tips, because we think we do not need any tips (how funny!). He forced to say that class dismiss. I felt very bad,because our term one ends this way. I was aspecting in different way. But I still love my classmate because they are full of energy, innocence and after all they are also human. People makes mistake, that is why we are human, not God! Love will make this world better one day.

Sorry Mr.Guna!

Failuer or Winner

On Thursday practical I relay did learn something.I cooked stuff chicken served with french fry, saute vegetables and garnished with black pepper cream sauce. But I failed because my chicken was over cooked, my vegetables were not cooked and the sauce was not enough with black pepper. And I can not complete my cooking in time. So I waited for next session on the after noon. Now I changed the menu, because if I would cook stuff chicken, I knew I could not complete cooking in time . So I tried to cook roasted chicken. Next time I cooked in time but my presentation was wrong and my chicken was naked.That day I knew from chef that roasted chicken should not be served naked, that mean chicken pieces should be skin on. And the sauce should be always in front of chicken.Thou I failed both the times, I feel good to learn some thing new. At the end of day I was tired doing two practical in the same day, but felt better than other day. Is is always feel better when you learn some thing new from your failure.

FORGOTTEN?

I can not stop my self to write this real story or feeling right after it happened. Before I start the story, I must tell something related. May be because of that it inspired me to see the whole situation differently.

Today is Thursday, the day started with busy schedule. In the morning we had IS. After that we had 'Fundamentals of hospitality hosting'. We got our term one assignment, where we have to go out and survey and evaluate about hospitality. We had learned how one should not be only task oriented, we should be people oriented and the warmth, care, responsibility etc. etc. should be there. After learning this subject, I stared to observe people in shops, restaurants and other places.

Today after school I went to 'Regional library of Jurong east' to find out a post dated newspaper. And I found it, had to take a photo copy of a particular page. So I asked the librarian , she guided me where the photo copy mashing was.So I went there and asked the middle aged lady sitting behind the desk. She told me in broken English that I had to pay 10 c, I said 'Ok'. Because I did not have pay card so she asked me to wait for another lady who issues pay card. I asked her whether she could accept case or not. She said lot of things but only thing I understood that she could not. I repeated my question again. Then she stand up and asked a boy who had finished photocopy. But the boy did not even stop and listen. He just said that he was in hurry. Now the lady told me that for the whole page she will charge 40c. I said 'Ok'. She did photocopy for me and and I gave her the money.You are thinking, what is the unusual thing happens that I wished to write this page. The climax has to come yet.

All the time the lady did not show me any concern or warmth or people orient. She was just job oriented.

After I had giving money I thanked her and said, ' You are so kind,God bless you'. Then I moved one step only , suddenly hard a thin voice from behind, 'Thank you'. I looked back her , I saw that she was smiling and watching me with her corner of eyes. I saw that she was smiling from her heart. I felt some thing divine, though I do not believe in GOD. May be this pure feeling is God.

Then I thought how one sentence can change the situation. May be next time the lady will be more people orient. When you show warmth, in return you will get warmth and love.

Is not a beautiful feeling? May be lots of us gone through this kind of feeling . But in busy life, we forget. It is the time to refresh our feeling.
