Got a Promotion

From 2014 till today I'm a hotelier.Now it's been 6 years for me in hotel field.I starts my carrer as a bar waiter in 98 Acres Hotel in Ella.As I improved my career skills and knowledge as bartender I got a chance to work in Shangri-La hotel's Capital bar.It's been two years for me in Shangri-La Colombo.So this year January I got promoted as Bar captain in there.It's a huge achievement for me.So happy to get that promotion at the begining of this year.But unfortunately our outlet got closed in the end of January because of covid pandemic.

Birthday Suprises

As Shangri-La Colombo was closed I got a chance to work in Sizzle Sports Pub in kandy.This is a hotel I worked before.The staffs and guests are so friendly with me.February 20th is my birthday.So they suprise me with a birthday cake.

Graduation time for my Girl friend

My girlfriend followed a Degree in chemistry at Sri-Lanka Institute of chemistry for 4 years.So finally it comes to an end in this year.So graduation ceremony for her degree held at B.M.I.C.H. on March 16th.So I attended that ceremony and so happy to see her wearing a saree and receiving her graduation.

Donating blood

2021 is a year that lot of blood donation programmes held.As this covid pandemic spread heavily the blood bank needs more blood for patients.So they give permission for volunteer groups to conduct their blood donation camps.We as HOPE VOLUNTEER'S also conducted a blood donation camp.Normally I donated blood 3 times every year,but this year I donate blood only one time.That is a sad thing for me.Looking forward to donate more blood in 2022.

Celebrating Sinhala and tamil new year

After four years I got a chance to stay with my family for sinhala and tamil new year 2021.This year my mother prepare lot of sweets.I enjoyed those very much.This time we decided not to visit our neighbors as covid pandemic is dangerously spreading in those days.So on 12th to 16th I stayed at home.Those days were unforgettable days for me.

Charity Programmes

2021 is a year that we have done only three charity programmes under HOPE VOLUNTEER'S community.We have done blood donation programmes,books distribution programmes and many more programmes.As the first programme on January we did painting the 1m distance mark on public places such as banks,ATMs,shops.We got a huge appreciation for that programme.

Traveling

In this year I haven't join on much of traveling.As the covid pandemic still spreading in Sri-Lanka this year we limit our traveling.But I have visited some of the places that I was willing to visit.So first of all I visited AMBULUWAWA.This place got to a trend among youth for a time.So I also visited this place.It was a nice place.The environment and the view of nature is so nice in there.

As next I worshiped the temple of the tooth relic in Kandy.It was in April.

So after the lockdown I was hopping to travel somewhere.Because after the lockdown I went to my job.So as that I haven't got much time to travel.So I want to give some relax to my mind.So for that I worship Shri-paadha in December 17 and 18.

Overall this year is a good year for me.But I'm so sad to spend three months in home on the curfew days.This is our golden age.We have to work as much as we can.But anyway that was a good time to identify who are bad who are good.

Most unforgettable thing for me in this year is I'm visiting my girlfriend's home with my family.That day was a unforgettable day for me in my life.She was so beautiful that day.
