2 months in England


Worked in the Wembley football stadium,England,London photo:Lan

I know should have write something about my trip in UK,due to my laziness and sometime out-of-mindness,I failed.

Time past fast,most people(mostly some Malaysian friends I have met here)say "In UK"u really feel the time gone quickily because u just work,finish work sleep and start work again in the morning..u don't have a life coz been bothering of making more money.
I want to save money,but I don't want to kill my lifestyle ...but really, at the beginning,apart of visiting some SERVAS host made my trip a seem bit "extraordinary",the rest of my time during the 2 months here,I work,I visit some places,and then,I work.

First week-arrive London,visit locals SERVAS,explore the heart city of London.(coz its so big,I only choosed to visit some places of interest ,another words,famous tourist attraction.)
London,indeed a city worthy to visit.

Second week-I'v registered with an job agency which playing a role of sending people to work at diffirent function.I was luckily enough to work at the famous Wembley stadium during the football event in England for the summer.At the same time,got introduced to work at a chinese restaurant for couple of nights a week while still looking for "better jobs"

Third week-Got a job working at a little cafe nearby the place i lived while remained the chinese restaurant part time work.However,"lost" the agency job as a result of not turning up at the upcoming event.

Forth week-working at the same cafe for another 3 weeks later and resign for some reasons.

And then...found the job from the UK popular jobs-search website "Gumtree" to work in the flower show and golf field..Another great chances to see Britain as working in high profile's summer event.Again,these kind of jobs is actually arranged by job agency which speacilize on providing flexible worker or catering staff to those events.

Working for the catering agencies are indeed a good option to explore UK and meet lots of lots of locals and travellers.

Will keep up working on life and my blog.

My friends and colleagues here in England find difficult to pronouce my name.Sometime just make it easy I don't mind they calling me Lani or Lantany.When I was in Singapore,my friends called me as Lana.
I had so many English name since I was young.But now I just like to back to use the original one.
"Lan" is my chinese name,in chinese character it mean the "orchid flower".(Elegant and beautiful ^ ^)
When you find my name is hardly to pronouce or not that easy to remember,then just
call me Local Area..("Local Area Network").
Some sort of amusing.
