25 days

since my last blog.
i'm doing this cuz apparently dee is bored with no blogs to read
sorry dee!

righty-o, so, today was my first ay at Thorpe Park
it was SOOOOO much fun!
it wasn't really a proper first day
it was my "park induction" day.

So i got there at 8 50, but i got a bit lost on the way cuz i had thorpe lane not thorpe park in my tomtom (stupid holly) so i was panicking but it was fine
went in the cast reception, gave them my name, the nice girl went "oh you arent on the list either!"
wrote my name on, obviously an error somewhere, gave me my name badge
i sat next to a nice girl called sarah and we chatted a bit
then we followed some nice girl called Suzie (how many times in this blog am i gunna say nice girl? geeze)
and we went into theeee training centre? we went into one education centre before, and this time in somewhere else, small room with comfy chairs and tables, and we were split into groups depending on birthdays, we were the pink team, then this group of boys called themselves the power rangers, then there was team supercool, and then the fantastic 5.
i was wiiith mollie, amy, lucy and erh.... another girl i feel really bad about not remembering her name because i talked to her alot
we watched a video about merlin entertainment, who own thorpe park, chessington, london eye, london dongeon and lots and lots of other attractions, and then we got this really dodgy list of questions! like
how many times wasthorpe park in the video
how many splashes were there
how many people slid down the pyramid

lots of questions like that
like wtf?!

so we came last in that team challenge, getting 3.5 out of 10. nobody got above a 5 though
then we watched more videos about fire extinguishers and stuff and other basic things
then we did more group exercises including a skit, where i was a paedo trying to take a little girl and someone hurting their ankle, our group got 38 out of 40 for that, other teams got like, 35 and 30 bahahahaha, we owned. thanks to me making everyone laugh. damn right. we were trying to emphasise points about health and safety and child safety.

theeeennn we had a lunch break, where we al sat in the canteen with the other employees and chatted bla dee bla

then we went back in, played snakes and ladders, made things out of playdough, had to rin around the park finding out information and then finished

we tied with the power rangers for first place out of all the group activities

then i got my locker key, another name badge for my coat, then i got 2 polo shirts, a fleecy jumper and a waterproof jacket in my locker. very nice.

I have a booklety thing i have to learn

it was a realy good day!

im stoked to work there

im doing "experience" rides, not "thrill" rides so im working on the water rides, the rapids, the banana ride bahaha an other things for wusses and children, still fun! just not the huge rollercoasters, but i can be switched if i want to. i'm not bothored.

I have my ride induction next week friday then I start working! all very exciting!!!

i wont leave it this long before i do another blog, promise

much love!!! xxx

april 2nd

That was VILE!
I woke up at 7, determined to go on a jog this morning,
so thats exactly what i did.
i got up, but some jogging bottoms on and some running shoes,
had some oatabix,
called my aunt to ask if she was coming
then we headed out at 7 30 with the dogs.
we started jogging down the road, and about quarter a mile maybe? i was like,
oh dear we need to stop.
then i got THAT FEELING
the one i get every time i pass out
i useta feel like that when i went jogging ages ago but then it was ok
and i could run for about 20 mins on the treadmill at the gym without feeling sick
anyway i was like "i need to sit down"
so i did
then i puked about 10 times
and then i was fine
but god did i feel awfull
really really rank
so i came back, had a shower, and now im watching jeremy kyle while having a cup of tea
