Me me and More Me

Well, I thought it might be time for me to catch up with the people of today and see what this blogging business is all about seeing as I've read a few, studied about them in college and that everyone I know seems to have one. I must say its a good way to let the world know what everyone is getting up to and keep in touch.

So.. this is what I look like if you havent seen me before....although the hair will probably look different or be in a different color tomorrow.

Growing up years...boring ...yawn....boring.... so I won't go into that......After my high school years, I've decided to enrol in a Swiss Hotel Management College because the years of working part time in hotel while I was at high school gave me the idea that it might be fun as a career option....I was very wrong HAHAHAHA ..... A bit too late now but I must say that I DO enjoy meeting the nice people that I come across with whether they are guests or co-workers. Not to mentioned the wild parties that we all put on ;-)

I supposed that I am relatively good with people and is probably quite good at my job after 7 years of working in the industry and perhaps I might want a change sooner or later. One can only work in hotels for so long before they drive you Koookoo in the head. Luckily that hasn't happened to me yet, thank god. The bad money in New Zealand hospo and the occasional horrible people you get to deal with doesn't help a lot as well. Why are some people so mean when they stay in hotels??? So there, if you are looking for someone that will work their ass off for you, give me a call now!!

This is where I had my first job in a hotel.....the Centra Christchurch (now Holiday Inn City Centre) ....no extra comments about this place .....errr

and the night clubbing and alcohol that went with it ..... I don;'t usually do that anymore because I don't drink.....*wink wink*...yea right! LOL

Then I went off to PIHMS, the hotel management school ..... in NEW PLYMOUTH!....still can't believed I survied there.....wait till you hear where I've been living recently. And yes I LOVED our bright blue uniform cause I look so crash hot in them! Why would I want to wear any other clothes?

and.... more of drinking and partying.....never any work done really

then I graduated college, thank Christ

and worked at the Crowne Plaza Christchurch

Millennium Queenstown

Park Royal Queenstown (now Crowne Plaza Queenstown)

Blax Espresso Bar

Portage Resort Hotel in Marlborough Sounds .... ou the Portage... now, THAT nearly drove me insane .... anyone who likes to work work work and live in total isolation.....go there. Amazing views though...I mean, c'mon look at it. Isn't it COOL?

..............and other places not worth mentioning LOL .... sorry!

But now, I'm the night manager at the new, funky and talk of the town of Hotel SO Christchurch. Pity about the job though. Who is mad enough to work overnights...grrr....

Check out the place if you are in town or have a squizz through the website http://www.hotelso.co.nz/ its pretty cool!

So there you go, just a wee bit about me and what I've been doing up until now. Pretty much work work work and more work .... sad but true

I'm dying out for my 3 week holiday to Malaysia in 19 days!!!! Can't wait. Hope you've enjoyed this and I haven't bored you to death yet. I'll make sure that the blog gets more exciting in the next few weeks.

Bye for now =)
