I'm the new one again. But everyone is SO welcoming! I ended up meeting my ACD and one of the other hosts at the gangway when I got on to the ship so they helped me with my ridiculous amount of bags. Jay (the ACD) also pointed me in the right direction for the MSA, my cabin, laundry, crew lounge (which is right down the hall by the way) and everything else that I needed.
Still ended up getting lost the first day a few times but I guess thats normal considering that this is a much bigger ship than the Fantasy class ship that the Paradise was in. I met the other hosts and a few of the dancers and they're all really great. i really clicked with Kiki who is also canadian, and still pretty new - she's 6 weeks into her contract here on the Pride. I'll be moving in with her when one of the other girls, Sarah (or Saffy, cause she's south African) leaves in 4 weeks. Right now my room mate is Sunshine who works in Guest Services and she's ridiculously sweet. She pretty much offered me sweets as soon as i walked in - I thought i was trick or treating or something. Another plus of where I'm living, the production singer Katie (?) lives next door and is constantly singing so I get a show before the show!
Yesterday they threw me right into everything I did deck party right away, did some trivia (well just watched) and did bingo as well. I guess that's what you get when you go to college - they expect you to know it all when you get into the real world.
I haven't quite got the hang of the whole eating schedule on this ship yet so every time I get down to the mess, there's no food - so I guess you could say I'm hungry. Oh and earlier, I definitely dropped my laptop off my bunk. Clearly still working, but it looks like its got a floppy dog ear on the top right. That would happen to me. If i was on the bottom bunk that wouldn't have been a problem - sheesh!
I've got training tomorrow bright and early and theres a crew party tonight. Guess who's going to be tired and not able to get off in Grand Turk? Lame sauce. But I guess I'll be there once or twice more while I'm on here.. ;)
Haven't taken any pictures yet but i'm sure there will be some soon.
Oh ps. pretty sure I know the reason why Mat sent me to the Pride: my ACD Jay, is a ginger. -_- And leaving me soon. He finishes on our Freeport day on Friday.
*NOTE: I've been writing this since I arrived on the 9th so if it's all kind of jumbled together - deal with it ;)
