Trivial Pursuit


*NOTE: Pretend I posted this yesterday - I wrote it yesterday but the internet wasn't working well enough to post it so I'm at a wifi-spot right now in Tampa and posting it now ;)

These past few days have been fun filled to say the least. I'm down to a whopping 6 minutes on my internet so I will definitely be taking advantage of all the free wifi when I get into port in Tampa tomorrow. 

This cruise is only a 4 day cruise so in translation 'a booze cruise'. Most people here are part of bachelor parties, bachelorette parties, birthdays, or just teachers trying to get in their last weekend of freedom before returning to school.

I've been able to host quite a few trivias which is a whole lot of fun, when you have more than 4 people. Yesterday while we were in Cozumel, of course most people were out having a great time, except a group of like 6 people who stayed on cause they're trivia die hards. I did some Food and Beverage trivia along with some Stupid Law trivia. Did you know its illegal to make funny faces at your dog in Arkansas? WHAT?! Anyway, So far today I've done 4 trivias. My partner in crime, Jenn, is sick so I've had to host them all. Great practice for me, kind of on the sucker side for Jenn. I hosted 'Ultimate Mind Game', '90's Music' (which I rocked at, just saying), 'Motown Trivia' which was incredible and I just finished some 'Sports Trivia'. Of course a trivia isn't a trivia without a few hecklers - but its all in good fun. If I can't pronounce a name, I blame it on my Canadian-ness ;) 

A few days ago at Karaoke, I was serenaded. I died a little bit. A very incredibly good looking southern boy named Terry sang 'Come a Little Closer' by Dierks Bentley to me. I may have melted a little bit. That same night, Lize and Me watched a man propose to his girlfriend in the main lobby on the beautiful staircase. He was crying, she was crying, we were crying, it was a mess but so beautiful.

Tonight, I'm off for some more karaoke, maybe a little serenade is in my future. And right after karaoke I'll be off to The Punchliner Comedy Club to help out a bit with that so it should end up being a pretty good night! Unfortunately we also have quite an early morning tomorrow for debarkation but hopefully that'll go by fast so I can get into Tampa asap. Then we start our last and final cruise on the Carnival Paradise. Mat, our trainer, knows all of pur ships and of course has been teasing us about them for a few days but we don't find out until the day before we leave, so hopefully  Thursday or Friday I'll have an answer. Not sure if I'll be able to let you all know cause of my not a whole lot of internet situation but we'll see. 

Well that was a novel and a half. Hope you enjoyed :D
