Days gone by...

July 9th 2008:
Today was pretty uneventful.I went to work and was on gates which was boiling hot and I had to keep dipping my feet in the pool to keep myself cool!!

I also got the news that I am going to train to do the Sandcastle Club which is the kids club which I am really pleased about because then I will hopefully get to spend more time interacting with the kids which will be great to put on my CV for teaching!! I was really excited to hear about that so I am going to go and get my fingerprints redone because they have to run an extensive background check before I do the training so that they know I am 100% safe to be around children. I really cannot wait to start all the training though because that’s my ideal job. I said for years that I would love to be in children entertainment somewhere abroad so it is amazing that yet another of my dreams is coming true.

Apart from that though I don’t have much else to report and to be honest I am sooo tired I am gonna go straight to bed.

Sleep tight, don’t let the bed bugs bite!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok so today was a bit of a random one.I had work on gates until 5.15 and then I went to go and get my haircut! It was getting really dry with all the sun and chlorine and everything so I was like hmm I need a cut. So I went to go get rid of the dead ends and was prepared to have quite a bit off cos I like my hair to look healthy.What happened next can only be described as a scissor shearing nightmare…The woman cut my hair to above my shoulders!!! I was like ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I have short boy hair! I was sooo upset because I have spent forever trying to grow it and now this woman had cut it all off, I was sooo sad. But I am now trying to look at it as positive and say that at least my hair will be thick and beautiful when it grows back which better be fast before I have a nervous breakdown!!!

However, I had a pretty good night after this disaster. I went and met up with Jen and her sister and her sisters boyfriend and we had food in Plant Hollywood which was awesome, I have never ever been to a restaurant like it! The atmosphere was electric and there was soo much cool stuff to look at like the 52 car form Herby was suspended from the roof and there were pirate ships attached to walls and props used in actual Hollywood movies all over the place. It was so unbelievable! I love being in there, it was definitely an exciting place to go and eat and surprisingly not all that expensive!!! There was a huge screen that looked like sun and there was all classic Hollywood movies playing and music and shout-outs for brithdays,anniversaries and visiting sports teams etc. I had so much fun and my eyes were darting form wall to wall through every inch of the place and each time I looked another way I found something I hadn’t seen before! It was really such an amazing place to go!!! I recommend it to anyone who hasn’t been before!!I also invested in a cheesy Planet Hollywood t-shirt as a souvenir plus I thought it was a pretty funky tee!!

We then met up with Luke and did some shopping for him and then came home. I virtually collapsed into my bed, I was soooooo tired! I only have two more days of work though and then I have Sunday off! Yey! I am gonna try and go to a park or something I think although it depends on the weather because it has been scorching the past 2 days and I don’t know if I would cope all day at a park or not!!!
That’s about it for tonight, I would stay and write longer but I am beyond tired and don’t really have much more to say about today :D Nighty night x

Today was a good and bad day really. My mood seemed to swing form happy to excited to sad to tired to missing home and back again. It was all a bit confusing really. I was in a great mood when I left this morning, I managed to wake up on time and not snooze my alarm and even had time to sit and e-mail my family before i had to catch the bus. Then I got to work and started to get grumpy because I didn’t cope well with the heat and one of my managers annoyed me because he made us move away form the cool air con in ridiculous heats to go wash boats, when we had already done the number we were supposed to. I was really not impressed because I wouldn’t mind if he was saying it because we had done nothing but we’d already done our jobs and the heat was crazy and I was finding it especially hard because we don’t get heat anywhere near this bad in England!!! But I washed 4 or 5 more boats to keep him satisfied and I did some other jobs but tried to keep to the shade as much as possible because 9 hours in the boiling sun can’t be good for anyone. Then It stormed which I was glad off because I got to chill out in the marina and read my book and have a giggle with Ryan and Dustin and Kristen so that was good. Then my bus ride home seemed to take forever so I was grumpy again. Then I got home and have relaxed here ever since but I have headache coming on and I feel really worn out and quite emotionally drained if I am honest. I have no idea why my emotions where so up and down today I guess the weather doesn’t help and I suppose good and bad things happened as well. Maybe it is that simple!! Anyway I am gonna go chill some more and read and then get a good nights sleep because tomorrow is my last day before my day off so will have something to keep me going for most of the day :D
