My Most Memorable Experience as an
Immersionist at Anda Pearl Premier Resort
by EJ Magadan
Some days, I felt
both excitement and overwhelming self-doubt. Other days reminded me how hard
work truly is and how I needed to push myself every single day. There were
mornings when I woke up feeling tired and unsure if I could keep up with
everything I needed to learn and accomplish. From talking to guests, washing
dishes, asking help from my co-immersionists, to coordinating with the staff
and the people around me—everything required courage. Still, I am glad I took
the risk and was willing to learn everything I could.
It was challenging,
to be honest, especially when I made mistakes because I lacked knowledge or
failed to ask how things should be done. There were bad days and there were
good days. By taking small steps, I began to feel that I was no longer doing
things just because I was an immersionist, but because they were important and
would help me in the future.
I am just an
ordinary person with no special knowledge about this kind of work. At first, I
felt out of place and doubted whether I could do it. However, with the people
around me, I found the strength and courage to face something new. The good
side of the experience was that everyone believed in me and was willing to
help. The resort staff taught me many things—from learning how to be patient
and kind, to always smiling at the people around me. Through this, I found ways
to overcome challenges that had been a hindrance to me since my first day. As I
worked through every challenge, relationships grew stronger, and tasks slowly
started to become enjoyable.
Looking back to December
15, when I first started, I realized how much I learned and how much I grew.
The challenges helped me become stronger and taught me how to handle difficult
situations. I learned that you don’t need to be perfect at everything, nor do
you need special talents or skills to work well. With hard work, perseverance,
and commitment, every effort pays off. I am proud of everything I went through,
and I could not have achieved this without the help of the people around me.
Both the good and
bad days taught me that everything takes time and does not need to be
rushed—it’s a matter of moving forward step by step. This experience taught me
that a privilege like this is not about being inferior or better than others,
but about using the opportunity to gain knowledge, learn from it, and make the
most of every moment we are given.
The experience shows that learning is not always easy and often comes with uncertainty and mistakes. At first, everything feels unfamiliar, but little by little, confidence starts to grow. Support from others makes a big difference during challenging moments. In the end, the experience becomes a meaningful step toward personal growth and maturity.
ReplyDeleteThis experience taught me that growth often begins in moments of doubt and discomfort. Every mistake, tired morning, and challenge pushed me to become more patient, confident, and resilient. I learned that real strength is not about having perfect skills, but about having the courage to keep learning and improving every day.
ReplyDeleteThis experience shows that the good side of this experience was that everone believed in you and was always willing to help you no matter what. Sure, it was challenging at first but as days passed you begin to love the place and that place will always remain as your second home who believed in you right from the start. This experience shows that a privilege like that is not just about being inferior or better that others, but about using the opportunity to gain knowledge, learn from it, and make the most of every moment because there is a saying that time is indeed gold so make the most out of it.
