- happy taco day! Taco day is a holiday around here. Mark who provided that lovely quote above had the greatest reaction to taco day I have ever seen, he like yelled “this is the greatest day of my life” as he was running to get in line.
- The last sea captain’s challenge was tonight, Bering Sea’s was so awesome. it was like the real men of genius commercials. It was a salute to Carl the field office guy.
- Today I contemplated whether to get a Mac or a dell. You see since I was prematurely separated from my dell that’s kind all I want now, is a dell. Like I’m using a dell as I type this and it just feels so at home. So yea I might get a lime green dell cause I miss my dell. I never got a chance to develop true hatred for my PC computer.
- This week was what I like to call “Zach Braff/Natalie Portman appreciation week” we watched garden state, closer, and the last kiss.
- I want a nap buddy

- Sea Olympics today!!! So to give you a breakdown of what I did: the two events I competed in for my sea, the red sea, was flip cup and dodge ball. I planned slippery twister and extreme musical chairs so I had to be at them. So dodge ball was embarrassing, I don’t even want to talk about how I did lol. But flip cup we placed second! Hell yea. We lost to Baltic. But the important thing is that I beat Bryan. So overall red sea tied with Bering sea for 5th place which is funny, cause Bering sea is the sea we share a floor with. 4th deck port side baby! Baltic the underdog of the day won the sea Olympics so they get off the ship first in Miami. The best part of planning musical chairs BTW was that I got to pick the music. So you know what was played right, a bunch of stuff like Scotty doesn’t know and def leopard but most importantly, paramore, awesome. but yea musical chairs got pretty ugly. People are crazy
- During lip synch I realized needed the following songs: pimpin all over the world
(for obvious reason) I’m a slave 4 u, tipsy, and Michael jackson’s bad.
- This day was just what I needed I love the red sea like I love 05 and sesame photo.
- But back to the group dynamics and such, Bryan and Caitlin got divorced. Fun
