Flair today. I can now flip the bottle and do random other shit with it. I can't really describe it. However, I still suck at throwing the bottle over my shoulder and catching it with the same hand at its neck so you can pour it. They also taught us some magic tricks and other fun flair you can do without the bottle so it doesn't waste any alcohol. That uses the tins, ice and garnishes. Pretty simple but we didn't get a chance to really practice it so I'm still unsure how to do the flippy things for the tins. Will learn later. The fire stuff was freakin' awesome. Not that they actually let us do it. That's a little too dangerous.

Next week: Final. Next Saturday: Speed test.

They kept mentioning Cocktails throughout the class. In fact, they dissed it because Tom Cruise didn't do any hardcore flair in the movie. I could do cooler stuff than him, apparently. I've noticed that that movie gets brought up each time we have class, actually. Someone always mentions Tom. And then proceeds to make fun of him. Still gotta see it. Older-Brother-Figure-Jeff from class said he'd burn it for me.

Oh Adri! It was your first time and you can't be perfect... until you practice, practice, practice! You will be fine!

The guy, Sam, came over when we were practicing and told me I did some of the tricks perfectly. The thing is doing it perfectly every time. That I am still working on. It's crazy fun. Except for the bruises. And cuts.

wowness. I wish the customers at Starbucks were patient enough to let us do stuff like that...lol. But alas, all they care about is getting their stupid lattes asap.
