4th and beyond update.

Wow…. Where do I start. I feel like I’ve posted consistently, but I havn’t been able to actually tell you all what I’ve been up to since like before the 4^th of July. So lets start there,

 

The 4^th for me was initially a very big disappointment. I had my whole day planned out, I was gonna go on the boat and grill steaks, have a good time. But I got to work in the morning, and was informed the boat wasn’t going out so not only would there be no grilling, but I would need to work from 9-2 then from 5:30-Midnight. Needless to say I was thrilled… but I didn’t have much choice, put off the steaks for another day and went on with the day. Worked the afternoon went home, slept a bit, then went back to work at 5:30 and worked… but around like 8:00 I started having people coming up to me and being like hey… we are here for the party cruise tonight. I turned people away saying I knew nothing of any party cruise on the boat tonight since no one had told me about it. More and more people started showing up saying that they were there for the cruise, none of my bosses were there either, so I figured people must have been told the wrong place. Finally at 9 2 girls from the GOGO travel agency came with a large group of people and were like why were you turning people away from your party cruise? My boss who had just arrived comes running off the boat and was like oh hey guys! I forgot about the cruise, come on aboard! He forgot about scheduling this cruise with the travel agency which meant he forgot to tell me about it as well. Within 15 min we had the boat full of gorgeous Dutch girls with a few guys mixed in. I came with the boat, my boss let me just act like one of the tourists and have a good time. So it ended up being a fairly good end to the 4^th just getting to have some fun instead of work all night. Then randomly the next night there were fireworks for no in particular reason but I was happy to see them!

 

Alright… what has happened since then… um, I met 2 Finnish girls here who were on vacation, hung out with them the past week they were pretty cool. I think they are the only two girls from Finland who aren’t blond haha.  They got me an awesome spiderman watch as a parting gift because I always keep my alarm clock with me for my way to tell time because since my blackberry got stolen and I forgot my watch in the states its all I’ve got and I’m too cheap to buy a real watch. Its pretty sweet… even though the watch doesn’t fit around my wrist… haha.

 

Oh! I have a roommate now! Lauren from England. (to all of you interested, she is not a love interest in any sense of the word. Just a good friend I’ve made here that needed a place to stay, and I needed a roommate so its just kinda worked out that she should move in with me) She is pretty cool though, really laid back but still girly haha. So needless to say the one closet in the apartment has been taken over by her, oh well. I’m enjoying it though its nice to have someone to talk to and not be alone all the time. As you all know I’m not the type of person that is really like oh I need my alone time, I’m definitely an extrovert.

 

The pictures above are of Lauren and I and some from the Boat trip that I sell.

 

That’s about all I’ve got for now, I pay my rent in 8 days and I’ve already got enough money saved up for it, so I think I might start trying to save so I can travel a bit the last couple weeks of my stay here in Europe.

 

Stay Classy as always!
