7天6夜 日本樱花之Hanami花见时刻!

与你相见的那一刻是多么的可贵。真希望时间就停止在这一刻,多么美丽的一刻~
一颗颗樱花茂盛的樱花树布满了我的眼帘!
没错!这就是樱花树啦 ~\(≧▽≦)/~ 

今天我来到了日本家喻户晓のUeno Park赏樱。
这也是我和朋友们最期待的一天^^
Hanami 花见时刻!

Hanami就是日语中的“花见”,一般就是赏樱花的意思。
每逢这时,日本人大多会聚集家里人,同事或者是朋友,一起去樱花树下赏樱花、
聊聊天什么的。
根据日本樱花季の传统习俗,每家公司都会派年龄最小的员工一早6-7点就去霸位,
然后通常party都中午才开始。
为了融入日本人的习俗我们一早就出发到Ueno Park“霸位”。
很好笑的是,到了目的地,找到了位子落脚后才发现我们忘了带mat!!
Arghhhh~~~~没有mat怎样噢?难道要坐地上?
当然不可以咯~日本可是很有规律的
最后,我们向当地人借用位子。
很幸运的也因为这样我们认识了2位日本人还一起赏樱呢~

我们的食物和饮料都是来自Ueno Park的小档口。
建议您从7eleven/商场购买便当,食物和饮料。因为档口卖的价钱都很贵!

想说,这烧烤式玉蜀黍不是搞笑的好吃~ Oiishiiiii
有机会去日本的朋友一定要试!

樱花Asahi也是在Ueno Park里面的档口买的~
价钱美到~~~
500yen一罐, 大概 RM15.50
一定要拍拍拍,拍个够本值回票价才行呀( ⊙ o ⊙ )!
能够坐在樱花树下和朋友们一同赏樱,吃吃,喝喝,聊聊天,拍拍照真的很享受!


生平第一次步入樱花树丛中仰望着樱花的风采。
花瓣纷纷飘逸在蓝蓝的天空下,犹如下起了樱花雨。
那一瞬间,我才发现人生是多么的美好,能活在当下是多么的珍贵!
人间还是有希望滴... =D

7天6夜 日本樱花之旅

话说日本是我从小到大都一直都很期待可以去的国家。日本是一个高科技的先进国度,闻名于干净,安全,动漫,樱花~~~ 是一个让我拥有很多憧憬画面的地方。小时候很爱看Sailormoon或许是因为这样所有浪漫的画面,沐浴在樱花树下对我而言是多么的难得!就好像投入了动漫的世界里❤.❤ 这次的旅程真的很享受很满足!在此衷心地感谢我的死党好姐妹精心安排和策划让我拥有一个美好的旅程!虽然大家都带着不同的心情出发,有人欢喜有人愁,但是呢却带着满满的开心的回忆回国~ 真的很欣慰!

本人很少po文,也不怎么会描述,更别说写游记了>< 以下纯粹是小小的旅游分享与心得~

好了,话不多说,来看图说故事吧~



由于我们乘坐的是凌晨的航班所以都素颜上阵啦!O(∩_∩)O

1...2...3...4...5...6...7个小时的飞行时间+睡下醒下!好不容易啊~~~

一下飞机,凉风阵阵地吹向我的脸马上就醒了!

wuhuuuuu~~~终于抵达目的地啦!!! ↖(^ω^)↗
 
抵达后の第一件事,selfieeee.wefiee,groupfieee...马上开启不能停拍的模式,有木有?lolllll
接下来当然是要找Free Wi-Fi上传照片对不对?
hmm...那你就错了噢~ 

来到日本没有pocket wifi portable device 还像话吗?呵呵~
来小推一下www.kl-samurai.com 提供出租的口袋型Wifi设备。
网络红人Agnes Lim,Chuckei和Cheeserland去日本必备的pocket wifi都是来自他们家的啦~ 
之前是beeemobile不过现在已改网址。
有计划去日本或其他亚洲国家的朋友不妨浏览www.kl-samurai.com 查询价格与其他服务。

由于是自由行,交通住宿吃喝玩乐都要自行安排,下了飞机就搭Airport Express去到城市,然后再转搭高铁去我们的住宿,走走停停,耗了好几个小时才卸下包袱,挺累的。不过值得!

四个女子住宿是www.airbnb.com订的,很幸运的订了很不错的房子。虽然很小间但是设备齐全,床也舒服而且房东人好好,说得一口流利的英语和很幽默!想要省酒店钱又不想住背包客栈的你可以上www.airbnb.com查询自己喜欢的住宿和负担得来的价钱~ 
有了AirAsia “Everyone can Fly” 和 AirBnb人性化的住宿,出国旅行再也不是梦!

在东京的第一餐~ 超好吃的乌冬面~ 
填饱肚子是时候去Explore这个美丽的城市咯~ 第一站:SHINJUKU
因为要到Disney Store去买DisneySea的入门票,好让明天能够提早进入儿童的世界。
 
一路上看到好多的樱花!!实在太兴奋啦啦啦 ~\(≧▽≦)/~



一路上不停的自拍+街拍,路人都看傻了眼,我们却乐在其中 =D
为了拍下美好的回忆我们豁出去啦!o(≧v≦)o

走走走走走啊走~ 走到肚子饿了啦!
来到新宿怎能不尝尝一籣拉面呢?(*^__^*) 嘻嘻……


第一次用Vending Machine点餐~未免太可爱了吧!!
要加料什么的就在上面按阿按~ 很
方便喔

点好了餐就进入一格格的座位~ 吃相再丑也不怕被人看见!哈哈~ 是谁发明的?太强了
 

晚餐来碗热腾腾,猪肉味浓浓的拉面实在太幸福了~~~~~~~
吃啊吃啊吃~ 非常满足!
啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊


 到处都是樱花,心情也随着夜樱花开心起来


Hachiko
史上最衷心的狗_地标

隔壁的老伯伯是在扮Hachiko吗? haha xD

回住宿之前来个甜点吧!女生啊~说到甜点再饱也肯定吃得下!

 来到日本怎能不试试当地的Crepes 叻?

在日本东京の第一天就是这样hea着过啦~ 旅行就是要这样的嘛 =) 

下一篇将会是这趟旅程最备受注目的Sakura樱花Hanami花见时刻!
下回见~

Emirates Airline Interview 2014

Well, is been a while i neglect my blog for so long. My apologies. Today, I'm back to share with you my experience through out the interview process. Still remember the 1st attempt for EK interview is how happening and thanks god to giving me a chance to experience it. Although I'm not successful at the first time, but it did not stop me from chasing my dream.  

Today, I'm here again to share the same topic but slightly different process of the interview compared to the one I did in year 2011. 


For those who are concern about it, here you go~


Open Day Interview
Date        : 30.11.2014
Location  :Johor Bahru
Time        :9:00 am

Note: Please arrive early to the venue to make yourself comfort with the surrounding and make some new friends to release your stressed, as well as get tips from others who familiar with the interview procedure.

9:00 am SHARP interviewer will distributing the registration form for all candidates before start the briefing and you are required to fill it up on the spot. ( p/s :bring a Black ball pen with you.) There are two interviewers from Emirates Airline to interview the candidates. During the briefing they played some video clips and talk about the "Life in Dubai" , "The benefit of Emirates Airline Cabin Crew"  and some "crew experience". 


After the briefing, candidate are required to hands up your Registration form one by one personally together with Resume, 1 x passport size photo and 1 x full length photo (4R size). During the submission interviewer will observed you from the moment you appear in front of them until you walked back to your seat. 


Once the CV submission session completed interviewer will paste a name list in the hall. For those who make it for Open Day your name will be highlighted and you are selected to attend Assessment Day. 



Assessment Day

Date        : 1.12.2014
Location  :Johor Bahru
Time        :9:00 am sharp

9:00 am sharp candidates will be given a sticker a.k.a name tag with your name and reference number for Assessment Day. Basically there will be 3 stages for Assessment Day which is Group Activity, Group discussion/Role Play and English test. Fyi, they will eliminate at every stage.


After distribution of the reference number,candidates will be grouped accordingly based on the number for the 1st stage of Assessment Day - Group Activity.


Group Activity


There are 2 big circle seats in the function room with approximately 15 candidates in a circle and every 3 candidates will shared a card. There is different item showed on the card. Example: Mirror, paper bag, balloons, starfish, lipstick, stocking, bucket, bottle, tomatoes and so on. Each group have to discuss with their group members in 10 minutes and each candidate have to give an idea on how to use the item in an unusual way. 

I guess they want to see how you interact with others and how creative you are. As a cabin Crew you are required to be resourceful right? =)
For those who pass for this assessment will be called by reference number and proceed to the next assessment - Group discussion/Role Play.

Before proceed to the role play session, interviewer will distribute a copy of the grooming guideline for you to refer. At the same time will be commencing the Arm Reach Test. (212 cm)
GUY, you are required to reach the red line 212 cm with the shoes on.
LADY, you are required to reach the red line 212 cm without the hills but you can tip toe. 
For those who pass the requirement will be continue for Group Discussion/Role Play.

Group Discussion/Role Play

The same room set up as the 1st stage, 2 big circle seats in the function room with approximately 15 candidates in a circle. In this stage everyone will get a same question/scenario stated on the card. You have around 10-15 minutes to discuss with group members and come out with answer. After that, will start with the role play part which interviewer will ask everyone a question based on the scenario given. At this part, basically you will have to reject people and i guess they want to see how fast you think/respond to impromptu situation whereby to say NO in a manner way and give your best solution.

The question/scenario i got for this time was like this, 'You are the manager of ABC Cruise company, the only cruise company in this city. Due to system error the room was fully booked, there is only 2 vacant room to be given among the 8 guest and this is the last trip of the cruise for this season."  Kindly discuss and choose who to give the room and why?

~ Travel Agent
~ Minister of Transport - on holiday
~ Elderly lady - ticket from son as present
~ Honeymooner - on holiday
~ Student - graduation party 
~ Famous party girl - 1st time visit
~ Loyal customer 
~ one more i forgot d ><

My group choose to give Elderly lady and Loyal customer the room. Why elderly lady? because she is old and this might be the last chance for her to travel, life is too short and we dunno what will happen to her tomorrow. Why Loyal Customer? because they are very loyal to our company and he/she probably love our service and will share with others about our cruise. Therefore more people will know about us and pay a visit to our cruise.
After came up with the answer, interviewer start to asked one by one randomly what will you do for the other customer who in the list and didn't get the room. Here start the role play. 

Interviewer : What will you do for the honeymooner?
Candidates A : Bla bla bla.....

Interviewer : How you reject the Minister of transport? 
Candidates B : Bla bla bla.....

and so on....

We take approximately 1 hour to completed this Group Discussion/ Role Play. As usual the reference number have been called will be proceed for the next stage which is English Test.
  
If you ask me what is the most challenging and difficult part of Emirates Airline interview i will probably say the role play session. Because I have been failed for twice on this stage which i feel i'm doing well and all the candidates tell me i'm firm and confidence during answer the question and how i give solution. But end up still failed so i'm abit phobia for this stage ><

English Test

You have 1 hour for the English Test, all in objective, no longer write essay =) The English test is not really difficult to understand but the answer is a little bit tricky for me. 
For those who pass for this stage will be called by number and remain on seat to complete the pre-joining form and some paper work. You will be brief on what to bring, the date and the time for Final Interview.


Final Interview 
Date        : 9.12.2014
Location :Kuala Lumpur
Time       :1:00 pm 
Duration :45 minutes - 1 hour

Its an one to one interview in a function room. First of all, you required to submit an updated CV, Formal wear photo and Casual wear photo. After that, interview session begin~ You will be asked around 6-9 question based on your working experience and give an example. Basically how you deal with your colleague or customer. 

Example: 
~Tell me a time that you have disagreement with you colleague.
~Tell me a time that you do something good for your passenger. 
~Tell me a time that you feel upset and how you overcome it?
    


I'm very happy and felt bless to make it this far. For those who didn't make it, please DO NOT give up, not everyone is lucky enough to get what they want on the 1st attempt. If you are clear enough on what you want, work hard for it! you shouldn't give a reason to give up! Be frankly, this is my fifth attempt for Emirates Airline interview and also the second time seat for Final Interview.

Here is the end of my EK interview experience. Thanks for reading till the end and I hope this post give you some basic knowledge of the Interview procedure and what to expect. 

Today is the 2nd weeks from my Final Interview and I'm still waiting for the Golden Call, finger crossed for it!! Do feel free to pray for me yaa ^^
