Well I survived my first day. I was really excited this
morning, but as it got closer and closer I was getting really nervous. I
clocked in and got my first assignment. I was first in Rehab (Colobus Monkey’s)
and then Viewing Blind (Okapi’s) and then Research (Naked Mole Rats) and then
got my first break. Then I came back from break and was put back in Research
for two hours! And then got rotated to the Aviary for another half hour. At
this point the trail is closing and I haven’t had my second break. And after
continuously standing for hours you really pay attention to when your breaks
are suppose to be. Lol. So finally I get my final break and 15 minutes is just not
long enough. So when I came back the trail was closed and the park was closing.
Gotta love those 5:00 closings! Lol.
So since I was scheduled until 6:30 I
was closing the Village. Which kind of sucks. Lol. Pangani is the only
attraction that has to close the village and there are only two people who
close every night. So me and this other cast member have to stand in the African
Village 6:45 .
It is super creepy walking out of the park by your self. At least the sun was
still up. lol. I will tell you it was awesome closing and still getting out
before the sun even thought about going down. Gotta love Animal Kingdom! So I
got home around 8:30 …stupid bus. But
I’m not complaining. My roommate works until 3:45AM
one day next week. I do NOT miss Magic (Tragic) Kingdom. Lol. I’m working 11:30 to 5:30 tomorrow. I’m loving these
shifts.
I’m soooooo exhausted. Fixing to head to bed. Sitting on the
couch with my Tinker Bell blanket and watching National Treasure right now. I
get to skype two of the nephews tomorrow because they’re staying at GiGi’s. I’m
super excited. I miss those precious faces.
This nephew can Skype too whenever you wanna. Love you!
