In all my shining smiles


Here is me and one of my many flight attendant class mates cheesing for the camera the day before our first flight.

We had just received our new inflight aprons.. there for they needed to be donned proudly!! And we are prepping to serve the entire building drinks..

My first flight was to DC. Took 2hrs 22 minutes to get there and 4hrs 40 minutes to get back.. long day.

My white sweater made me blend into one HUGE snowball-esque looking form. GRRR

At any rate training is going well we are in our 4th week and coming along nicely!! You will all feel safe flying with me, as long as we dont share stories about high school and the many reckless things we did back then...

Im the new best friend

I bought a package of movie tickets.. 8 to be exact.

D is usually never interested in leaving the house let alone go to a movie, BUT I have FREE tickets. As I explained to him they aren't FREE I paid $50 for these 8 tickets therefor NOT free!! I am down to 2 and NOT happy about it. We did some good movies though... Syriana, about the oil fields overseas. I liked it. The new world, I was NOT happy about being drug along for this one but ended up really enjoying it, I cant stand Colin Ferrell though!! GUH!! I also saw The Ringer with Johnny Knoxville, im sorry but I am a sucker for stupid antics I think its a riot and I thought this movie was hilarious, I was sitting in the theatre alone (no date) and there were about 15 other couple of people, I seemed to be the only person laughing most of time, I was shooshed 2x and told I was rude once... They were mad because I was laughing at the things the "challenged" were saying to knoxville.. SORRY its a movie for criminy sakes!! If they didn't want people to laugh they shouldn't have made the movie!!

Now that I am in traing to be an FA and I live where the training is taking place I am the "chosen" one.. take me out, show me the town, lets go shopping, wanna get lunch?? GUH I am broke girls can't. Its fun and exciting and I know I am a fun exciting person but I am one tired chicky after a day of brain usage. I havent studied in over 12 years.. this is hard shit!! I have to get used to this school stuff again!!

I will post some pics when I get my uniform tailored!! YIPPEEE!! lol
