The Hive's Journey

Starting a business sure ain't easy. Well, who said it was? Haha...I thought it would be nice idea to have the creation, the growth and happenings of The Hive archived and shared with everyone. It's like seeing a child grow and have a special affiliation with it. Happy reading and have a wonderful Journey with The Hive : The Backpackers' Hostel.

Just another day

Yes....today is just another busy day. Not that there were customers but it's the daily chores and unfinished tasks that's keeping me so busy.

The brochure stand at the entrance is ready. This time i find it really ugly. I liked the previous one i made. Somehow this new stand doesn't look nice. F**k up! But since i've spent so much time on it, i can't bear to not use it. Let's just see what people will say, IF they would say something abt it.
