Thursday and Chris Comes!!!

First off Chris comes today!!!

I finished my blog from Tuesday so you can finally read it.

I survived the late night Wednesday and actually got out a half hour early :) I had to be to work at 10:30 yesterday morning and was supposed to go work at the ice cream cart at Rafiki's Plant Watch. It is almost a separate part of the park. If you are a guest you must take a train up there. The train is cool because you get to go by the animal houses. So on you way you may see a variety of things. When I got to work my name was changed off of the board for Rafiki's and I was scheduled to be a breaker. My break sheet was ridiculous and I wasn't supposed to get my break until 4:20PM I protested a little because I can not go that long not eating and stay upright. I got denied but one the coordinators was nice and took of my breaks so I could stop and eat earlier.

First break=funnel...ugh I don't know how I will survive in there for four days next week...I was there for an hour and a half and hated it!!! I got to skip the second funnel break because the 3rd person that was working there came and so they didn't need me. I did an ice cream cart break in Camp Minnie Mickey for Omega and then I was off to break Rafiki's.

Wwhen I rode the train I saw an ostrich, a white rhino, and my favorite or course the elephant :):):) The break scheduled allows for five minutes in between breaks to get from one place to the other. It took me twenty minutes to get up there so even though I skipped the 2nd funnel break I was now right back to the scheduled time. A breaker's bank only starts with $100 dollars while a regular bank has $300. At Rafiki's everyone was only paying in twenty dollar bills so I ran out of ten's, five's, and one's. The only thing I had was twenties and a roll of quarters. I would have called down to base but it would have taken them longer to get to me than I was supposed to be there. One boy wanted ice cream and I told him the only change I had was the roll of quarters so he took it. Eventually I built up a little bank and he came back and I gave him ones and a five. Angelina was 30 minutes late getting back from her break because the train stopped working. So now even though the coordinator was taking one of my breaks for me, after the time I got back off the train it was time to get do another break.

I quickly scarfed down some food. Dad it was a both front feet in the trough moment. I could have competed with Tugg for how fast I ate my food. I went and did the and Campfire Treats break and another short break for Omega and I was done breaking!. I banked out both my banks and was even and rather than take my break I told a leader I didn't get my break so I got paid for the hour and I ERed and hour early :)

Last night Jaimee and I walked over to the outlet mall and did a little shopping. One of the girls called me over for fashion advice...because I was obviously so savvy in my layered fleece, sweatshirt, and jacket (So I would be warm for the walk). She was trying to primp up because her maybe boyfriend was coming to visit her at work. I obviously helped her enough that she gave Jaimee her 50% discount so Jaimee got 4 t-shirts for 12 bucks!!!

After that we stopped at the food court so Jaimee could get a sandwich and I ran over to Starbucks for a steamer. The man in line behind me made some sort of comment and struck up conversation with me. Long story short he doesn't work and just plays golf down here, I asked him where I should send my dad when he comes and he recommended a place called Grand Pines that is right by a golf institute. He tried giving me directions but that went in one ear and out the other.

We had a great time at the mall and even get cute pictures of us taken by one of those side kiosk things.

I am off to workout, do laundry, clean my room, and get everything else squared away for my four day weekend!
