It seems like yesterday....

Man... Finally 11 months of working... 3 places i've jumped... Not bad heh!!!! Some say bad, Some says it's good. Sometimes i regret why i took up this particular line... Maybe it's all about passion which i had since standard 4? 

I remember the time when i was in primary school, where teachers used to ask what would like to be when you grow up... Most of them was like.. Lawyer!!!! Doctor!!! Pilot!!!! Teacher!!! Some even told SINGER!!!!!!... Came to my turn where i stood up and the question was being asked and i replied a Hotelier!!!.. Most of them looked at me and LOL! and i remember one macha shouted.. "macha that fellar wanna be a cook lah!!!" and the whole class LOL louder as i stood at the end of the class without any feelings... Just looking down at my Pencil box... The teacher knew i was a lil shy and she actually backed me up by saying... "Class!!! Don't ever underestimate Hotel line!!!"  I was like WTF???? Then she explained about the career that i was about to choose which was totally unique answer from the students that she has taught before and with her curiosity feeling, she asked me more... about how did i get the interest of being in a hotel line... 

So i stood boldly and said that I'm fed up with people telling they wanna be lawyers... Doctors... and etc... besides... My dad is a lawyer and my uncle all are lawyers.. I want to do something different from others... Something which has not been dreamt by a kid.. My class teacher was like.. "wow!" Amazing Kallen! and she asked me which department that i would join and i said to be a chef but not so sure on which cuisine to emphasize on. She then asked who is your role model.. I calmly replied " who else but one and only "Chef Wan" .  Few moments later my teacher asked me to sit down and she explain more about Hotel line as the future industry thing...MAN I had a Proud face!!!!!

13 yrs passed by... and today being a hotelier never makes me bored... One reason... You got the Passion... You will do it no matter hat ever it takes... Sometimes i work 16 hours... and also worked without off days but still i've never given up... In 2009, i still remember those words that hurt me the worst.. The words that pierced through my heart.. and today i'm pushing myself off the limits to prove that bitach a point!!! After all, i've got nothing to lose...
