This week I was treated to a surreal sight of Thais going back from school and to work. They were all trainees over at Six Flags Magic Mountain, probably as part of some work exchange program of some sort. I hear there will be there for about three months. My regular bus stop was teeming with Thais, that the bus was so heavily crammed like a can of sardines. They had to make the other employees already waiting in the transfer station to wait for the other bus. I trained one of them in how to spiel in the tram, but due to their overabundance, they had to send me home early in the afternoon yesterday.

So today, they finally found a way to deal with my work schedule by sending me to another department. I was assigned to the Season Pass processing office where I mostly kept the lines in order as well as assisting the guests in processing the needed info and getting their photos taken. What's interesting about it was that it was the first time I was working INSIDE the park (keep in mind I was working in the parking lot). I easily adjusted to my new (probably temporary) surroundings and was pretty upbeat throughout the duration of that job.

Plus my dad decided to drive me to work just for once, thus avoiding the overcrowded bus. Though I might try using that carpool service one of these days.

I can't wait for this weekend. After work tomorrow (St. Patrick's Day), I'm heading to the College of the Canyons where me and my improv class are gonna make our first live performance. I also took the day off from work on Sunday in order to meet with the people who are interested in helping me with my film projects this semester. We hope to spend that day getting to know one another and sharing new ideas.

Plus I reached the 100 friends milestone in MySpace, WOO HOO!
