For the past 10 days, I was in Singapore, being so called Marina Bay Sands ambassador. What is my job scope? To promote free Sands membership. It was fun but tiring. Standing and walking around from 10 am till 10 pm. Cannot lean, cannot sit, cannot hunch, cannot this, cannot that. Too strict for me to be happy about. Well, to look on the bright side, I got the opportunity to talk to people from different parts of the world. Trying to utilize my Japanese but it was a total failure as I only utter a few words, forgetting many phrases but I understood what the Japanese were saying. I made use of my Mandarin and Cantonese to speak with patrons from Hong Kong and China. And believe or not, Bahasa Melayu is useful as it is almost similar to the Indonesian.
Another interesting discovery is that, most people I met there thought I was Filipino, Indonesian, Eurasian or simply "what are you?". Even Filipino themselves thought I was one of them and tried to speak to me in their own language. Not just once but many times. It's fun to keep people wondering about my race :)
To those who don't know, this is Marina Bay Sands Hotel. Their signature attraction is the Sands SkyPark, the Casino, the celebrity chef restaurants and the Shoppes.
Inside MBS. At Tower 2.
Singapore is a clean, organise and beautiful city.
With Sophia, she look gorgeous in the red Cheongsam. I wore the same one on my last two days but I portray that kind of effect. Sadly. hehe
And going home on an executive coach. There was less than 10 persons in the bus.
Boy, I am glad to be home. I didn't have access to Internet when I was in Singapore. It made my life so miserable there. Awesome experience though.
Cheers.
