Today was my last day at Curl before Christmas break. I finished the 22 page spread they had me do and they thought I did a really good job! I still have some editing to do and I'm still waiting for more text.. but other than that it's done! It was kind of difficult getting into it since I've never worked on a magazine before, but I'm getting the hang of it now. They gave me another 6 page article to work on over break, and I have another to do when I'm done with that.
My night working at the bar went really well! It's an older crowd, but they play live music and people start dancing and having a good time. All the workers are around my age too, so we have fun. I'm the "glassy", which means I go around collecting empty drinks, wash them, and help restock the bar. My boss is teaching me some bartending stuff too, which is cool. Hopefully I'll get a chance to do that before I go. Unfortunately I can't get my work visa for another MONTH... which means I can't get paid. My boss says he'll try to help me out however he can, but he could get into a lot of trouble doing it... Baaahh.
It still seems so weird that it's Christmas... doesn't feel like it at all!! I don't have any plans yet.. Hopefully it's sunny and I can go hang out at the beach. I'm heading to Tauranga on the 27th to stay with Michelle until New Years. There's some concerts we want to check out and a beach volleyball tournament on the 29th. Time to teach some kiwis how California plays volleyball. :)
i like that! teach them how to play volley!!
