Orientation Night Jan 2006



20th January was our orientation night for the new intake students in January... Previously, the orientation nights were only for TCHT students, but this time they made it a big one combining with the TCPJ students as well... Our batch was in charge of cooking and serving... Me(Group 4) was in F&B that night... Because the theme for that night was 'Colours' so we decided that girls servers wear red polo tee while guys servers wear pink tee! Weird huh? =)

At 4pm, we all started our mise en place, the guys move the tables out while the girls clean up the restaurants, mop the floor, set up the buffet counter... There were 4 buffet counters altogether, and luckily we were using paper plates and plastic cutleries... (Phew, no need to wash =p) The event started at 7.30pm with speeches, cake cutting ceremony (TCHT's 20th birthday) and games... Then the buffet dinner started at 8.15pm... There were a lot a lot of people... And insufficient food!!! Especially the counter i'm taking charge of! Sob sob! Err, i also don't know if the kitchen did not prepare enough? Or the students ate too much! Then we had no choice to close one counter...

By 9.15pm the dinner stopped... we cleared up everything while the students were enjoying the performances... Keith did a flairing performance... and there were also dance performance and games... We cleaned everything, then had our briefing and headed home! It was kind of rush for everything but i enjoyed working with everybody... Although all of us were too busy we didn't talk much...
