Nightmare Valet Services at Capella...

Yesterday was a very important day for my family and we had a major dinner celebration at Capella on Sentosa. If you are not sure what Capella is, its a 6 star hotel on Sentosa that just opened this year. At Capella, it takes 20 to 25 minutes for a valet to locate your car and bring it up and the charges for this service...$12!! I have attended functions and dinners at other hotels before and they take less than half the time to do the same thing for far less the amount of money. We were told by many other people who have attended other events/wedding dinners there before about the same poor valet service. We had already told the hotel prior to booking the ballroom for our celebration of our concerns and to express the standard of service which is expected from the valet. However it was still as bad as it was. The only thing I can say is that they are consistent in the poor standard of service provided.

So a fair warning if you are attending an event at Capella, park your own car in the basement or be prepared for the horrific valet services.

Busy Bee...

I've been running around the past few months for several committee meetings. First of all, I'm on the committee for the Orchid Society of SouthEast Asia (OSSEA). Next I've been asked to be on the committee for next year's Singapore Orchid Show. I'm also on the Judging Committee for the upcoming World Orchid Conference (WOC) in 2011 held in Singapore. I'm glad to be apart of these exciting events which are happening on our shores and also thankful that people see the potential in me to include me in them. Hopefully I do not disappoint them and to do my best to show that their trust is not misplaced.

Cheers

Upcoming Birthday Celebrations...

Well...will be celebrating my birthday again next week. Time really flies when you are having fun! It also brings to mind things which have transpired during the past year. It brings to mind things which I have achieved and things that I should have done. I am rather happy on how things have been in my love life although there have been ups and downs but thankfully, there have been much more ups than downs...hahahaha. With that, I can safely say that I'm much more in love than I've ever been before... :-) I am also happy and thankful for good close friends which I know I can always count on and hopefully they can say the same about me. This year has also been a year of firsts too where both my dear and I have gone on overseas trips together...not once but 3 times...hahahaha! Well the celebrations are being planned by my dear dear so will see what happens. :-)

Cheers
Sean
