arielarenaSecond (and third, technically speaking) bartending classes were today. We learned shooters. Andrew (the teacher) even brought out the real alcohol they keep in the back to show us how they do layered drinks and we tried inventing a bunch of new shots with the variuos liqueurs we had. Let's just say that those who were over 21 got a taste if they wanted and the teacher especially. But that was later on during the class so it wasn't like he needed to be utterly alert. We also learned garnishes, which took maybe ten minutes. So it was a pretty relaxing day. Very nice.
The class was in Old City so I saw a bunch of the people who dress up in the historical costumes and tell stories around. I wondered where Becca was because I know that she works for them. Funnily enough, when getting onto the train to get home, there she was. We sat together and talked. It was a great way to end the day! It's crazy how those few minutes were some of the most fun ones of the day. And now I know where she's working (which is nearby the school) so I can head over there during my lunch break and learn about Philadelphia while eating. I think it's a good plan.
Other than that, the first week of camp is over. I really like the other counselors I'm working with and we seem to have a sort of routine now. It's fun. Tiring but fun. Well, wiping the kids after they've gone to the bathroom is not fun. Nor is changing them if necessary. But after my freakoutage when attempting to change one of the kids and Taller John's inability to put a diaper on correctly, our lovely senior counselor has been nice enough to do changings. Overall: Good.
My cousin Darryl is staying for a few days with his friend Avi while my parents are at another cousin's house. They're pretty cool guys but we haven't really talked. Tonight shall be bonding night. Sort of. We're gonna do dinner. Darryl and Avi are here because they're doing this blog about congressional districts, various towns and other political stuff. I'm not sure about the details because I haven't had the chance to sit down and read it yet. That's my next mission. Still, it sounds interesting and you should check it out. Got that? Wonderful.
