[校园生活] 迎接挑战、创造机会

Challenge Yourself to Create Opportunities
迎接挑战、创造机会

Making it through Year 1 was a big accomplishment, but making it through Year 2 feels like I am more than half way through my degree.
成功完成第一年的学业是一项很不错的成就，顺利度过第二年，就感觉离拿到学位越来越近。

Busy, busy, busy, waking up 5am for Mentoring Scholarship Student kitchen shifts, attending classes, running around to clear Student Council accounts from the previous day, attending Student Council meetings, being part of the student café and finishing assignments was my life as a Blue Mountains International Hotel Management School year two student!
忙，实在太忙了！每天早上5点起床，作为辅导奖学金获得者进行厨房的换班工作，上课，东奔西跑处理学生会前一天的账目，参加学生会会议，在学生咖啡馆工作，完成作业，这些都是我作为蓝山国际酒店管理学院二年级学生的生活。

I took up all these responsibilities at the beginning of my second year at the Blue Mountains International Hotel Management School to test myself. With commitment and determination to achieve and get involved with School life I knew I would be rewarded if successful. Getting involved and participating to the highest-level possible allows me to find new strengths and have practical experience in so many different areas. I love the challenge.
在蓝山第二年的学习开始时，我承担起了所有这些责任，以此来磨砺自己。决心努力融入蓝山校园生活的我，知道如果成功的话，自己会获得很多回报。积极参与最高水平的活动，让我发现了自己的优点，并在各种各样的领域获得实践经验。我喜欢迎接各种挑战。

Second year students at the Blue Mountains International Hotel Management School are required to complete as part of the practical requirement of the degree a stint in the housekeeping and front office departments. I began in the front office where I learnt various things, including, checking guests in and out, posting expenses in Opera, dealing with customer complaints, responsibilities of cash float and working as a professional team member that deals directly with customers.
作为学位实践部分的要求，蓝山二年级的学生需要在客房部和前厅完成定额的工作。开始时，我在前厅工作，学会了各种事情，包括顾客的入住登记和退房、把消费记录输入OPERA系统、处理顾客争端、承担现金浮动的责任、作为专业团队一员直接与顾客打交道。

I enjoyed working front of house, when it came to working behind the scenes, in housekeeping, I thought ‘not a chance’! Time to skip town. As discussed before, many things at the Hotel School were extremely difficult. I have never really done anything for myself back home. Spending hours washing hotel linen and making up guest rooms was not my idea of a future career or study plan.
我喜欢在前厅工作，但是一点也不喜欢在幕后的工作，比如客房部。时光荏苒、岁月如梭。就像之前谈到的，酒店学校的许多事情都极其困难。回到家后，我从未真正为自己做一些事情。清洗酒店亚麻布、整理客房并不是我未来的职业生涯或学习计划的一部分。

The amazing housekeeping team of staff; Ms Jakus, Shirley, Dianne and Eden, created a very supportive environment to learn in- and learn I have done.
非常棒的客房部团队：Jakus女士、Shirley、Dianne和 Eden，营造了学习的良好氛围。

Whilst I may not choose to follow this stream when I graduate from the Hotel School I know what a hard job it can be. I understand many of the complexities that occur in this department and how critical it is to hotel operations. After all what is a hotel without clean sheets?
我从蓝山毕业后可能不会随大流进行这方面的工作，我知道这样的工作非常辛苦。我了解这个部门的复杂性以及它对于酒店运营的重要性。毕竟，没有干净的床单还能称之为酒店吗？

I had many memorable experiences as a second year student and created memories and friends that would last forever.
作为二年级的学生，我拥有很多难忘的经历，也创造了很多美好的回忆，交到了很多朋友，我将永记于心中。

Best described by Christopher Columbus once said, ‘You can never cross the ocean unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore,’ this is my experience at the Blue Mountains Hotel Management School.
 
意大利航海家Christopher Columbus曾经说过：“除非你有勇气看不到海岸，否则你永远也不可能穿越海洋”，这也是我在蓝山学到的经验。

Looking forward to the final chapter of my university life, Year 3!
期待大学生活的最后篇章，第3年！

With lots of love, Jyotika Khanijou
