Have a magical day!!!

June 4th 2008:

Today was my first day in my new job!! I am now a recreation worker which is the best job in the world!! I get to chill out by the pool and hand out towels and wristbands and play with the kids in the water and give them bubbles and prizes! I also get to do hair braiding and use the cashier desk! Its so varied and i get to meet loads of different people and i love the interaction! This job feels like it was made for me, i am sooo glad i quit lifeguarding now because i am actually excited for work tomorrow!!!

The outfit is fine as well. It is a white polo shirt with blue shorts and they are like swim material just like the lifeguard ones so i don't get a crazy wacky ugly costume thank god!! I also get to rotate alot which is mint cos it means i get a variation in what i am doing instead of remaining in one spot all day!! I am sooo happy happy happy :D
The guy that was training me made me laugh sooo much.He is a little old man who tells me all the gossip and gives me loads of random info about the pool and pin trading and the ducks tha swim ther (yea there are ducks!! and ducklings running around).He talks for AMERICA literally!! He was really great though and he kept me entertained all day and made sure i felt like i knew what i was doing which was really important to me because i would hate to feel clueless like before!!!I also met a really nice guy,one of the lifeguards.He was on "gates" (thats what that area is called) today as well and he helped me out finding my way around and made me giggle so work was actually fun, and he is a big kid like me which helps!!!

I also got to speak to some of the parents as well which proved interesting because they were soooo intrigued by england and my opinions on everything. I spoke to one couple about Diana and the conspiracy theories and British politics and George Bush and Gordon Brown and it was soo nice to be able to interact with people and to have someone value my opinion and it was also good to hear their viewpoints on English government etc!! I really did love it today!!

Tonight i got in and we went to a place called IHOP (INTERNATIONAL HOUSE OF PANCAKES) which is you didn't guess was a huge pancake house!!It was yummy scrummy!!! We went with our new found friends Chris and Chris!! Confusing!! But they are both really nice guys and we all have a laugh with one another!!Anywho i got to go now cos i am back in work tomorrow at 10.0 yey!!! I actually cannot wait!!!

Much love and kisses xxx
