My first day of work! 1, 2, 3

Omg! I finally got my very first job in my life! I am currently working for Photogenic Inc. I worked for three days now. On the first day I worked at the Ferris Wheel. I did cashier/sales/line flow/photographer duties. The second day I also worked at the same station. I was super excited to work that day and it was fun and awesome. The bad part is that I have to stand all day and that was quite tiring. But yea I got used to it by now. It was pretty fun to get the hang of it especially for the photography part. That is my Favorite!! At first when I was working at the cashier I felt so shy and newbie, but then when I was on camera I felt like joking a bit more and talking a little to the costumers. Then, I started to get the hang of it. I felt more free to talk to them and much more comfortable, too! For the cashier part, I totally mastered it by now. My supervisor said I did a great job! On the second day I was late so I called in notify them that I was going to be 5-10 minutes late. Gosh.. I hate the Grand bus! It sucks so MUCH!... I did the line flow that day too. At first I hated it cause I think it wasn;t much fun at all. During the night time, it got so crowded that I had to handle a bunch of people at once. I couldn't handle it that well so my supervisor took my place for a couple of seconds. Then after I experienced the social learning theory, I stepped in and took my position again. She said I did a great job because I have good sense of catching up in new things. She was happy and I was too!! She said I was good at everything!! YAY ^_^... At the cashier my other supervisor told me I'm doing great because I interact with the costumers and the other employee said that she loves my confidence. I felt very happy because I was useful. So then I enjoyed working there even if it is such a hassle sometimes. The third day was quite boring until the end. The environment is much more dreadful and it is not lively there at all. I hated working there because the costumers there were so mean. A lot of them had an attitude.... and wouldn't take their pictures. The camera broke down and messed everything up. Then we lost about 300 costumers during that period of time. The supervisor there was not that great and also one of them kept on bitching... I was like omg if you don't like this job then quite it already! But Matt was awesome. He is very nice to me. Also Jeff and Timicka. They are all so great. O yea Josh is kool too! and very funny to be with. I just didn't like how the printing was so slow and that we had to print every single picture out even if it looked really bad. Such a waste of paper... and we cannot recycle them either due to the chemicals on them. It was hard to sell them out because it cost so much. Te packaging was so disordered. It was hard to put them all back together. I actually had much more fun just standing at the stairs directing the costumers to the exit just to make them pass by our photo booth. I liked that a lot more for some reason. I got so tired of doing the line flow. I interacted with the costumers and begged them to take pictures but there were just too many. I felt like I just wanted to get out of there. I ran out of energy to talk to each and every person. I got especially tired of the costumers that wouldn't cooperate especially those who just go right ahead and trespass the line in the front. I was like you can't pass by here and then Josh got so pissed off and told them that the line blocker is there for a reason. I will never want to work at U505 again! I liked Matt and Josh but everything else I had to do there was not that fun. Also it was super far away too. It was just frustrating...

I GOT MY FIRST JOB!!

Yay!! I got my first job! I'm extremely happy because I really wanted a job that deals with photography. I love taking pictures and now I get paid for the hobbies I do! I was really excited for the interview and was scared I wouldn't do good. Well.. during the interview, I think I did okay btu I was nervous and I wasn't funny enough to catch a lot of attention. They said they would call us within 2 days if we are hired. I was dying to hear my phone ring. I used the secret Ms. Maclean taught me. I've been saying to myself that I want this job and I will get it. I was sad they didn't call me the first day, and so I lost some hope. The second day I was dying to get phone calls. After taking a nap for some hours. I really thought it was too late because I woke up like at 5 and I think the firm closes at like 6... but, I received a voice mail from any unknown number. And yes!! It was them. So I hurried to call them back. They told me I was hired!! I was extremely happy and I was jumping up and down. This is my first job ever so I'm totally looking forward to this. Hopefully things will turn out great ! I have orientation on next Wednesday.

Anime convention!

Anime convention was fun... but Missouri, I was very tired to go to the convention. At first it was quite boring because all we did was walk around getting to know the place. Then we enjoyed it more once random people came up to us to take our photo. Linh was dressed as Lavi from the D. Gray Man series. Her friend was Kanda. Me and Aikie didn't dress up nor did France. I was too lazy to find or make a costume because it was so expensive. Linh practically spent like a hundred something for her outfit. Which is outrageously expensive lolz. There were so many random peoples coming up to me to take my photo which was really weird because I wasn't dressed as anything. But I guess I did kinda look like anime character since I was dressed up nicely and my hair did look super Asian ahahz. Just because of the orange blond color I have on my head. It wasry fun taking photos of others. They were so many peoples that dressed up for this event. It was fun recognizing the anime characters I knew, and guessing which character it was. Some of them did a great job too! Mostly cloud, Ichigo from Bleach, and death note. They looked just like them. Especially the D. gray Man photo shoot. They all dressed up so nicely. All so playful and all so kind. It was kool watching them. Then we went to the performances. The skits were so funny. I liked it a lot. Too bad I couldn't stay for the Idol part though. They sounded so nice but then we couldn't stay cuz everyone wanted to go eat dinner. The dinner was alright but not as delicious for the price. It was expensive since it was in the hotel. The convention is actually connected to the Hyat hotel which makes everything expensive. We slept in the Holiday Express hotel for the night. It was fun and the room was nice. Me, Linh, Aikie, and France shared the room. We brought instant noodles for the midnight snack and some other asian snacks lolz. It was fun but we didn't even sleep much.. we stayed up until like 4 and woke up like 9:00 because we had to get up early in order to get free breakfast. Their breakfast service is awesome! It tasted good for a morning buffet! I maybe will go to the convention again next year. O yea I bought a hat that has ears on it! hehe it looks cute! ^-^

Missouri trip!!

Missouri was a blast!!!! I had so much fun and I gain so much experience. I went to Steelville, Missouri in the Ozarks. I went camping, caving, herping, and hiking. It was so fun. It lasted about one week and we had different activities every day. I went with a bunch of BCQ friends. It was nice meeting new people. I remember we went hiking at the elephant state park. That was so kool because there were gigantic rocks we get to climb on and it was just fun climbing up those dangerous hills. The scenery was juz gorgeous... I loved it up there, where I can see almost everything from high above. We also saw a parrot on the way there. Like wow the parrot was so BIG, so blue, and freaking pretty. We took loads of pictures. The time I spent with those people were memorable because they are all so crazy hahaz. I remember this one night where we threw a crazy party. They all danced crazily like..juking. There were crazy music and we played flippy cup. But we had to strip if we lose lolz. One piece per lost. We were suppose to use beer for that game but only I used water hehe. Just watching them get drunk was hilarious. They were so tipsy and funny when they drink. I really like the bond fire too. But it wasn't as beautiful as the Saukville bond fire. This one was smaller and the chairs were crappier, but I just love the bond fire, especially the fresh made smores!!! Delicious hahaz. The stars there weren't as beautiful as Saukvilles either because it rained a lot that week. There were also a thunder storm while I was camping outside inthe tent. I was omg... there was lightening and it was raining so hard, but I took pictures and they looked so awesome. I stayed up every night until like 2 or 3am. I didn't want to sleep until everyone got tired. Then we went herping. We hiked up in the hills and it was pretty high up too. We found an eastern gardner snake, 2 frogs, two toads, 3 red back salamanders , 3 smooth salamanders, 2 centipee, and 4 snails. We also went night hiking.. it was pure darkness out in the woods hahaz very scary but with a bunch of peoples, it was fun getting lost too lolz. I loved the caving experience!! I went to a wild cave and a show cave. The wild cave, I had to wear a hard hat for safety rules. It was small but it was so kool crawling through those small areas. It was so wet in there too. The show cave was a blast! That was the most amazing cave I have ever visited. It was so pretty inside but too bad my camera ran out of batteries.. I regret that so much because I wanted to take so many pictures but I couldn't >_x.. The cave had like old ass rocks! They formed so nicely its crazy. I also found like 10 bats. They were small but they were so friendly and cute hahaz. Too bad I had to leave a day early though because I had to get back in time to go to the anime convention. The day I missed was the trip to the waterfalls!!! Omg.. I really wanted to stay because I love mountains and waterfalls. For sure one day I will go visit those pretty waterfalls again. Over all, this was a great experience. I'm looking forward to go to next year's BCQ trip!! O yea... I became a leader for this class too. It's gonna be extremely fun. This class was the only course I enjoyed... Love BCQ!!
