It is an undeniable fact that working at MCYS has indeed made me experience and learn so much more things that I have not had the chance to experience at Sentosa.

Besides learning to handle and work with difficult operators from all walks of life, I had been arrowed to take on so many versatile roles that I almost forgot my main job scope.

Other than being tasked to be part of the brochures revamp team, department healthy lifestyle coordinator…

I was also arrowed to emcee at our Deputy Director’s farewell party!!

To be honest, I didn’t have much thought about it ‘cause I was tasked to be more like a “side-kick” for my other colleague who has a wee bit of experience emcee-ing company's event.

BUT THE SCARIEST PART COMES!! when the night before my colleague actually pre-empted me that she might not be able to make it for the event as she was not feeling well!

With no icebreaker games prepared in mind, no script to go with the flow…

I still had a good sleep. LoL! which still spurs me thinking…

Anyway, I decided to take things in my stride tho’ I am still ten thousand unwilling to always be the one to receive all the arrows.

Then just an hour before the event, boss told me that a section of the event needs to be cancelled off due to some last minute circumstance…

Tell me what’s worse to come.

No game, so I can only work on the spot, and get some colleagues to play youtube videos to act as a tentative KARAOKE SESSION. Thank goodness, the VIPs arrived on time, otherwise I’ll really have no entertainment for the people!

Then the other very precious lesson that I’ve learnt about being an emcee is the spontaneity and fast response on the spot. People will throw you some comments and there you have to grab the “ball” and throw back to the audience hard. If you get a positive response, it will mean you have done great!

Honestly, I did enjoy the whole process yesterday, especially when I had some positive comments from my boss, Deputy Director, Director and many other colleagues! Had so much fun and achievement. (:

But the downside of it is that my Director has then arrowed me to emcee for another bigger event. =(

But all and all, I feel great. heh~
