This is the picture taken from the Tower of Terror ride. This ride puts people in a cage-like room simulating an elevator going up an elevator shaft, then it drops you from 13 stories and bounces you back up again. It was terrifying the first two times, and I had a death grip on Ben's arm.....but the fourth time we rode it, I was ready to pose for the camera. Ben and I are the two idiots in the front - he's strangling me, and I'm playing dead.

Magic Kingdom This week I've been in the STCW BST class. Monday, was an all day lecture....pretty boring stuff. Tuesday, another all day lecture, but Tuesday night we went to the pool to do sea survival drills in the pool. Then Tuesday night a house mate, Andrea, and I went to Waxy's for a bit. Then we went and met up with my buddy Shaun (I met him in New Orleans last October/November with the Red Sapphire crew). He's on a boat named Imagine which is being built in New Orleans right now, but they've had a smaller Imagine (112') here in Ft. Lauderdale and it's just been sold. It was Andrea's first time aboard a yacht!
Yesterday, we went to fire safety school. It was a lecture all day as well. Last night I went back to Waxy's with Andrea and Taylor (another housemate). While at Waxy's, I ran into the Kiwi (he was Jono's roomate in New Orleans - also on the Red Sapphire) It was crazy seeing him. We hung out the rest of the night and played catch up!! I think he and Shaun will be here this weekend, so I'm looking forward to hanging out with them some. Shaun's twin brother Ryan is going to be in Ft. Lauderdale next week, so I'll get a chance to see him also. :-)
On Saturday a couple girls and I are going to the West Palm Beach boat show and give out our CVs - put our name and information out there. I've also received an email from an lady who is an independent crew placement agent, and she wants to meet me on Saturday while at the boat show.
My interview for Friday got post-poned. The lady giving the interview is going to be out of town, so she wants to do an interview over the phone on Monday....then meet me as soon as possible. I still don't know any details about this boat or this job, but I sent the chief stewardess an email tonight asking for some more details - so hopefully I should know more soon!! I'm hoping to have a job by the end of next week. That's just a goal I'm setting for myself!
Tonight, I'm taking it easy. I'm doing laundry and catching up on things. Tomorrow is first aid/CPR, then I'm done with STCW and fully qualified to work on yachts!!! YAY!!!! I'm so excited about getting job!!
