The stars in my eyes… well, in my table, actually

Last night there was a fashion show at the stoa, given by one of Israel’s top fashion design school and sponsored by the manufactures of a top Italian car. Over 300 people, some came from overseas as special guests, members of the press, fashion designers – a very stylish event, indeed.
My tasks today were giving [...]

Bring on the weddings!

Well, I guess my statement from the first wedding event was true and the wedding season has finally arrived. And I’m happy. Watching so many people gathering to celebrate 2 people’s special occasion in their lives truly warms my heart, and it makes me happy that somehow I’m adding to their happiness.
Last night the Stoa Banquet [...]

I guess there has to be a boring event once in a while

Now, don’t  get me wrong here – everybody seemed to have fun at the event celebrated last night at the Stoa- it was a Bat Mitzva to the most adorable talented red-headed girl and all the guests were dancing and singing and eating the food, so no complaints there.
It was a bit boring for me because [...]

Finally! My first Wedding!

Last night was the first Wedding at the Stoa Events Banquet. It was an upside down wedding – meaning the food came first, than the ceremony and after that desserts and tapas. I know, the guests at the wedding were as surprised as you all and some even thought they came too late to the [...]

Should I or shouldn’t I go back to college?

I’ve been thinking alot lately, more often after starting to work at the catering service and mainly because almost everyone there are students, to give a BA degree a 2nd shot, but this time I won’t go back to the School of Fine Arts I’ve been to in past years, I want to study something [...]

Weow! What an intense shift!

Tonight I finally saw and felt what happens when there are more people coming to the event than planned, And let me tell ya, it was no picnic!
Our event manager told us during the briefing that it’s going to be a quick event, about 100 people, they’re going to have reception, lectures for about 2 [...]

Is it too much to ask for the support of my family?

Making the decision of quitting the Hitech job and start off anew at the age of 30 – almost 30 – as a waitress in a catering service, wasn’t easy – most of the people working with me are ages 24-25 and full time students, doing this job as a part time job only – [...]

My 2nd event

Last night was my 2nd shift as a waitress at the catering service, and it looks as if I’m slowly but very surely getting the hang of it. A lot more confident in presenting myself to people at my tables, With the other waiters and the people working at the Stoa like the Bartenders and [...]

I cannot believe I’ve lost my first tip!!!

I’ve just got back from my first day as a catering waitress and let me tell ya – it’s definitely not as easy as it might seem to some of us. well, to me anyway, but trust me, from now on I’m not taking this job for granted. constant motion, heavy lifting, keeping the balance [...]

Well, I guess I gave up the fight :-)

No, don’t look at me like that! I know that you’ve all heard saying how I can’t figure out the people who do this 24/7… Blogging, that is.
Well, I guess I couldn’t go on judging a book by its’ cover and decided to start a blog on my own just so I’ll see what’s the [...]
