WOOT! It is the third week of school and everything is starting to take its shape the subjects and teachers for example Advance English in college writing by MR GUNA!!! We have been taught various ways to improve our writing skills from something as simple as what should a paragraph consist to writing a narrative paragraph on the movie City of god. For me i have pick up those skills and i am trying my best to put all this skills pick up in my day to day essays. For example i did not know at first that writing a paragraph requires sections. Sections such as topic sentence, supporting sentence, and lastly a concluding sentence. I feel all this would improve my writing by a fair bit and would help me push up my grades in some classes such as housekeeping as we have a 1000 word report that we have to hand up at the end of the term. All in all, i think mr guna have done a great job so far in imparting some of his essay writing skills on us with a bit of luck i might be just like him one day

Working life
Many people use to tell me that working life was hard, at first i did not believe it but now i do. I have been working as a waiter in raffles hotel for about 2 years now and i love the working environment as it was very relaxing and working there is enjoyable. What made me realize how tough working life really is, was when i was attached to park royal for the interpol general assembly event which happens yearly. Some people that i have met over there are really nice but some are just ignorant and full of arrogance. For example we are only student and we are being treated by some of the police officers like we are working directly under them they commanded us like we were in the police force which in my opinion should never happen. A series of events happen while i was working for iga. Ranging from getting scolded because we took extra food to even hotel staff dumping their workload on us. What really pissed me off was hotel staff dumping their work load on us. Simple staff such as bringing the guest to the money changer to change money they dump to us and where there is a fuck up we get blame. Even the police made mistakes their arrival timing were all screwed up the timing were not accurate and the airport did not call us to inform us if the delegates have touched down. From those series of event i finally realize how tough working life is.

FIRST POST
Its the start of the new term, and everything is looking great. New teachers, new subjects everything is new. I guess it would be a fresh start for me. One class that i was pretty much interested would be advance english as i love the english language i think that this language is impressive as learning new words always gets me excited for example arduous, inconsequential and many others.. i have alot of friends who are from usa and compared to them my english is nothing. Mr guna was our advance english and college writing teacher as well as our host mentor. From the moment he started talking, i liked the way he does stuff straight forward and interesting. On our first class, he made us go do a treasure hunt this got us all excited as everyone was not expecting this. He made us go around the school searching for items such as the guard house, red shirt, toilet bowl ( this was super funny) and many more. He also taught us the fundamental of writing in his later lessons, he started by teaching us how to write a paragraph simple things that actually made a huge difference in writing an essay and i think this would help me a lot in my future assignments. Hence i am looking forward to what shatec has installed for us this term.
