Had my first day of training for my new job today and I have to say, I am really happy to be there. As with most new jobs, I was both excited and nervous at first, but after sitting in on a few calls and seeing what I am going to experience I was brought back to my old job with NAIS. I am comfortable, and like the ways they have of doing things there. Finally, back where I belong 🙂

Finally back from the cruise… Had a blast. Started out a bit shaky but I think I actually had a good time once I met some people and got into a groove of stuff to do…

Highlights…

Playin’ with the Canon EOS 10D was loads of fun. I probbaly looked like a tourist for half the trip, but I didn’t care. The camera kicks ass..

Ed Rocks Rocks! Ed is the Lounge Singer/Pianist. He works mostly on the Carnival Cruise Lines (We were on Triumph) but occaisionally plays in lounges and clubs around. His songs, “Sara” (Sitting on the shed house door) and “Just a friendly little cat” (MEOW!) were a hit along with his Cannonball Toasts! Man can that guy drink! 🙂

Tons of hot women, Met some of them and just enjoyed the views of the rest….okay, and tons of not so hot ones, but I can happilu say that my memories are filled with the nicer ones.

Too bad it’s over… Tomorrow I start my new job with Optimum Online. Wish me luck!

Having a blast on the trip…Met a few people on the excursions taken earlier in the week and actually started socializing a bit.. .Had a lot of fun. Last night got wrecked in the piano bar. Ed Rocks kicks ass…. Then headed to the dance club. Actually got up and danced with this chick I met there..My parents would be proud. Mom’s been trying to get me on the dance floor since the first night, and I just dont dance unless I’m really drunk or in certain company (or when given the opportunity by an attractive blonde)

We’re back on route to Miami and the end of our journey. Tomorrow is our last day on ship I believe.. Thought there were 2 days, but we’re awfully close.

Last night was cool. We’ve been spending our evenings in the Piano Bar… The singer/pianist, Ed Rocks, is awesome…Then headed over to the dance club here where I got a good taste of NY club culture. Some guy went up to this couple dancing and almost instantly started a brawl right there on the dancefloor. Everyone broke it up right away, It was great. Then the girl, who was trying to calm down her boyfriend got worked up herself and nearly got into a fight with one of the other girls there. It was great amusement 🙂

Kids! lol

Spent the day running around, playing with my 10D… Got lots of pictures. They’ll be posted to the site when I retuen.

Yesterday was a good day though somewhat of a letdown. I did, however find my first Geocache outside of the USA. Was a virtual cache in St. Marten. Cool find. It’s so much more interesting when you have a virtual tour guide, like the GPS to take you around on your own.

We went on the 4×4 Jeep Safari, which turned out to be, you drive around town in a jeep and stop at a photo point, a shopping plaza and a beach (a topless beach too… With the exception of 2 or 3 attractive women, you don’t want to see the boobs you got to see. I would have taken a picture with the new camera, but I didn’t want to break the lens 😉
