A new step

I know I said it a while ago, but I'm gonna get back on track with blogging.

I don't know what's turned me away from it lately. Laziness more than anything. i always have thoughts going through my mind, that hasn't changed, but there's something lately that's stopped me from getting them typed out or even written out on a notebook. Something I can't quite put my finger on. I don't really know what it is.

Anyway, here I am, writing. Hello. I'm sitting in my grey cubicle, as I have for the laaaaaaaast 8 or 9 months. But I am on my last week! That's right folks, no more answering phone calls from extremelly entitled people who only support the arts for the tax writeoffs! No! I am going to be working at the Vancouver Aquarium as an educational interpreter. Which is great experience in terms of the carreer path I would like to follow.

Basically, my job is to be the vehicle that information travels through. I am meant to be an eduactional facilitator and communicator. I'm supposed to be approachable and easy going. more than anything, the key to my job is to have fun! Because learning is fun... and I love learning. probably my favourite thing in the whole world. If all goes well, by the end of the summer, I will have taught my love for learning to a few people!

I'm going to be concentrating on marine mammals and working with groups of 200 people (give or take) I'll be hsoting the shows and working with the trainers to make the demonstrations as fun as possible! And I'm so up for the challenge... and cannot get started soon enough. As it is right now, I'm finishing up my time at the Arts Club... Then, come Sunday, a new chapter begins.

let me also justs ay that, though the job I had at the Arts Club was NOT the greatest, my colleagues definitely made it worthwhile. I made some amazing friends here and really got to pick the brains of some amazing people! Something I am eternally thankful for! So if anyone from the arts club reads my blog (or anyone at all for that matter) thank you for being such cool cats! And come visit me at the aquarium.

So that's my big news... I'm gonna try to get my thoughts out more often. The longer I go without getting them out in the open the more confused I get about my own existence... which isn't exactly a good thing.
