Time is relative. And without delving into a debate about physics and the space time continuum, let me tell you what I mean.
For something to be relative it must be in relation or in proportion to something else. Let me take it a step further and say that more importantly than time itself is how that time is spent. How we spend our time is relative, because it may be more or less productive than the infinite number of alternatives. Bearing this in mind, I have been very careful with my time and how it is spent, thus creating the illusion that I have spent the last two weeks in a time vacuum.
Still, I am unable to tell you what I have done here. Seriously. I feel like I would only be teasing if I included what could be considered the "highlights." But here I encounter another problem, because everything has been memorable. Let me tell you about the water parks.
There is a reason that water parks are better than theme parks. The sole reason is this: shorter lines, less waiting time. Sure, that season may be fading away, but if you want to experience attractions multiple times then you must visit the water parks at Disneyworld. I have yet to conquer what is known as Summit Plummet, a high-speed, steep-angled water slide that I hear will leave your undergarments stuffed so far between your cheeks, and not the ones on your face, that you will be begging for mercy by the time you are done. My roommate and I have scheduled that feat for next week, so I'll be sure to let you know how it feels.
My work schedule is spontaneous, inconsistent, and requires me to wake up at... What's that? 4 am? Ok, that's only for one day, but even Mickey Mouse is getting more sleep than me and he doesn't say a single word all day! I am still in the midst of training and the process is tedious. Frustrating is probably a better word. Or maybe annoying. I haven't decided yet, but all three fit the bill at any given time of any day. Learning the ins and outs of any job can be stressful at first, but I am confident that it will be no different than any other position I've held once I've been at it for a few weeks. I won't lie though, there is an excessive need for attention to detail here, and the details are many. If you miss a detail, don't worry, you're going to miss another soon...
Understand that this is merely a glimpse of what is happening here. If you want to know more about what I am doing, please call me or send me an e-mail. I am very pressed for time but would love to talk to you, whoever you are... Friends and family I hope!
Again, not as long as I intended. Will be waking up in five hours, wish me luck.
Until next time,
-D
