Yesterday on the way home from work, I stumbled across a cell phone, lip gloss and and some sort of inhaler. Instead of just walking by it I picked them up and tried to find out how I would get ahold of the owner at 2am. 1 new message. It was from the owner saying that they lost the phone and they didn't care about the phone they just wanted the sim card back. I called the phone and got no answer. When I got back to the hostel I was about to jump on the computer when I noticed something sticking out of the chair. I lifted up the cushion and found $3. A dollar for each item i found. They called back seconds later and are coming to pick up the phone today.
I'm moving up in the work world once again. I start my bar tending training on Thursday. I just have to train a person to take over my job on Friday, then its, "Hey, what can I get for yah" for me.
Nelson is one of the glassies. He's about 6'4, and I'm guessing about 250lbs. He's from Brazil so I try to speak spanish with him. He helps me with it, and I help him with english, and the names of the songs that are playing so he can download them after work. Here's a short dialogue we had last night.
N: "Como esta?"
S: "Bueno"
N: "Cansado or aburrido"
S: "Cansado"
S: "What does cansado mean?"
N: "Tired"
S: "Oh, and aburrido?"
N: "Aburrido is boring"
S: "Oh... It's also one of my favourite foods!"
He didn't laugh.
I have 5 shifts this week which means I'll be getting about 50 hours. Going to be cansado, but I'm very exited to bar tend for the first time. It will also be good for my bank account. Not only will I be making money, but I'll have no time to spend any either.
Today I'm going to Rob's, who's a bartender at The Shed, to watch countless episodes of 'Entourage' in which he has on dvd. I haven't seen an episode in quite sometime. It's only on on Sunday's, and I work every Sunday. The plan is to buy bacon, eggs, HP sauce, and english muffins to snack on. "I am exite."
Matt and Drew went for a camping trip up the coast with Nic for the week. Me and the Swede got 2 new roommates last night. One of them snores. It's different when Drew or Chris snores because I can yell at them to make them to shut it. But I think if I yell at the little asain guy, he may be afraid to fall back asleep.
i miss al.
